Why not simply try your best to be born into a rich family?
That was my first mistake that I still haven’t financially recovered from.
I’m in my 40s now. Is it too late to do this?
How do you feel about reincarnation ?
Not too good actually.
You can look into adoption. I’m sure there are plenty of billionaires who are looking to adopt a 40 year old boy (or a girl)
I can’t confirm this. They all seem to like little children.
I don’t know how common this was elsewhere, but in feudal Japan it was common for powerful families without a son to adopt an adult son who could carry on their family name and titles.
Unfortunately, these days the billionaires seem to be fond of pumping out dozens of children with different women, so they’re not likely to need a son to carry on the family name.
Exactly, you need to do four things in order to become rich:
- Do NOT pay taxes; taxes are only for poor people; be proactive.
- Use your tax money to
bribelobby politicians into help you become richer. - Abuse your employees and your providers; squeeze them like you were a baddie from Dune.
- Be a pillar of the community, which means paying a PR agency to boost your image.
Or at least that’s what I learned from the rich.
That’s not how you become rich-er. To become rich in the first place, you need to try real hard to be born rich, or be one of the four people per generation that get stupid lucky.
The important part is once you’re rich, claim it was due hard work and perseverance only.
Rather than agreeing to lower pay and poor working conditions, why not demand better by using your father’s influence as the head of a top fortune company to simply buy out your workplace and skim the payroll of your fellow workers into your own account.
Making coffee at home while I collect a paycheck from one of seven different no-show jobs.
Getting a little interest free loan of a few million from your family also helps.
As someone who doesn’t make coffee at home, I guess it’s the combination of both
This is ridiculously insufficient to become rich!
I make my own coffee at home, AND I bake my bread myself!
Beware the next billionaiiiiiire!!!
Making coffee at home does save you quite a lot if you drink even a decent amount. Won’t make you a millionaire though.
That won’t work, because you see… When you are born rich, your parents know people who can make any crime go away. When you are not born rich, you don’t get that privilege and you will get made an example.
The issue is that coffee is clearly too cheap and should be more expensive when scaled to your total price of housing.
