A Billionaires Guide To Getting Rich

The sage Zenrin once said "If you wish to know the road up
the mountain, ask the person who goes back and forth on it."
Sound
advice, but are you following it?
If you're like most people, probably
not. So who's advice do you listen to?
** Your next door neighbor
** Your barber or hairdresser
** Your mechanic
The list
is endless. You get excited about starting your own business and the doom and
gloom crowd takes pleasure in stomping on your dreams.
Before you
listen to them, ask yourself one question. Have they been where you want to
go?
Probably not.
So who's advice should you listen to? The
men and women who've traveled the mountain.
One man who traveled the
mountain and amassed a fortune in the process, was J. Paul Getty.
In
his autobiography Getty lists rules for creating wealth.
What do you
think was Mr. Getty's number one rule for getting rich?
You must have
your own business. He didn't say get a good job.
The same skills you
use to make money for your boss, could be better applied to creating wealth for
you.
There's an old cartoon that brings the point home even
clearer.
A father is asking his son, "Wow, wouldn't you love to be a
football player and make all that money?"
The little boy smiles and
says, "Daddy, I'd rather be the guy that can afford to pay the whole team."
The next time you're excited, keep your own council and remember the words
of Ben Franklin.
"Keep Thy Shop and Thy Shop Will Keep Thee."
Dare to dream. Be your own boss.
Wishing You Success,
John
