The Secret to Getting Rich

You can't wish yourself into getting rich. The only proven ways to get rich are family connections, monumental luck or the one you should most seriously entertain: doing something you really like and working as hard as it takes.

Forget all these get rich quick schemes, they're just a rip off. They look for people who have no hope and then take what little money they have by promising them riches. If someone charges you for a secret to becoming wealthy then you know something is wrong.

Most rich people say they were willing to work harder than the next guy to become rich. This doesn't apply, of course, to people who are born into wealthy families.
