Your OP is entirely couched in negative terms, positive thinking is more likely to have a beneficial result.

Set goals, expect and overcome obstacles, never quit, hope for a little luck, don't get caught.

Yep. Its the only way!

Guess it depends on your definition of rich..
$1mil is rich to some.

$4mil is rich to some.

$4bil is rich to others.

i just hate gd negative terms.

you have been selected to serve.

that's pretty gd negative in my terms of understanding.

moon shiners, meth dealers, mary jane dealers, and others.

al capone was sentenced to fed. prison because of non-pymnt of taxes.

my best advice is to just stay legal. work hard, pay taxes, and enjoy life.

if we could reduce taxes, would my enjoyment of life be able to increase?

get an economics or finance degree. work in banking or investment banking. use your spare time to network, not hunt, fish, or bullschidt on 24hr campfire. would put you way ahead of most of us here.....

Gus, they say the Good Lord must love poor folks, he sure made a lot of them.

If you were big time rich, you'd be too good to hobnob with the likes of us nobody's.

somebody? dumped a black kitten in my yard.

now, i have to feed her or not.

she's a sweetie.

what to do?

A televangelist charging people for hope and prayers...and you get to rub shoulders/share the stage
with other snake oil types like politicians.

still awholelota dumb sheep out there that are willing to be fleeced.

I'd just rake leaves til I was a gajillionaire. They jus' keep comin'. Or cut hair. Or toenails.

I'd traffic narcotics .

supply and demand.

there it is.

some folks will tell ya they are 'living the dream' but find they are too busy to enjoy it.

for some great wealth is a trap, cause it can come through great responsibilty and not provide a carefree easy life.

some have inherited billions but not the brains and business sense their father had to make and manage such wealth.



and you would be nothing much more than a curio to the old money family you had married into. ..




well like marrying old money , It can come with certain strings attached.

I've walked away from wealth that I never thought I would have done (and prior to such) never understood
how people could do such a thing...well people can and do change , I never imagined I'd be the completely
different person I am today in regards to ones attitude toward money.

Be intelligent, resilient to stress, and hard working.

I know a happy ex-engineer that has a soon to be happy engineer son. Not sure how rich is defined these days. So what?

Unless you are dishonest, you'll never get rich this way. but, if you are (dishonest) prepare for a prison sentence.

Invest in aerocar technology. It's not too distant with drone technology going great guns.

Go to trade school and/or engineering school. Get a job and work hard but not addicted to it. Get married to a wonderful wife and lover, have a couple of kids, go to church often.

That would get a guy most of what he needs and wants in life, most anywhere in the world. He will live long and happy for the most part.

As a retired financial guy....This^^
