seroiusly is great!!
THIS IS AMERICA my friend. There isn’t a country in the world that has the opportunity that you have. Money buys happiness is bull crap, but the lack of ambition is why people dont have money. They dont take the necessary steps to insure their happiness. They want it today, do you know that if you save 300 a month for the next 15 years you will accumulate almost 200k in savings. Education is one of the most important isssues that will make you wealthy. When you buy a home, buy below your means, not above your means.
I have 6 daughters and came from low income, but my parents lived below their needs and saved their money. Everyone laughed at my dad for not having much, but he taught me a vaulable lesson, its not where you start its where you finish, but starting is the most critical thing. My dad saved every month, put me through school, lived in a modest and I mean modest home and new everything about everything, and when he passed away, he had over 1 million dollars that was passed out to the family. I was SHOCKED, he left me to manage the families money because he know I understood the concept.
Today, This country is in tough times, but my friend, yo ucan do whatever you want and accomplish whatever you want, so get busy, find out what it is you want, get educated and save money ever month and then in 40 years from today, I will be dead, and you will be able to pass along some valuable information to someone just like you.
And one more thing, whatever you do, be the best at it, no excuses, because Gates and Jordan became ICONS because they had tremendous work ethic.
Do you know the name Warren Buffet? He’s the 2nd richest behind Bill Gates. He started with a paper route. Started buying stock so young his parent’s name had to be on them with his. Owned his first real estate to young to be in just his name. Always lived below his means. Says it’s more fun relaxing on a yacht that belongs to a friend and let them pay the staff and have all the upkeep and worries that go with it.
His message is to start young. Mow lawns, deliver papers, wash car, babysit, whatever you can find to do. Make a plan as to what you will do and how many hours a week you can do it. Save the money and find a way to invest it. Do not go to the local video store or whatever and spend it. You want to be wealthy – not rich. There is a huge difference.
Rich is you have money as long as you are working to make that money. But if you go away and out of contact with your business for a while, it stops making money.
Wealth is when you could be on a deserted island for a year and come back wealthier than when you left because of the type of investments you hold.
Learn to make your money work harder than you do. And along the way, learn to help others. That which you put out to the world comes back to you many fold.
