A Billionaires Guide To Getting Rich
A Billionaires Guide To Getting Rich
by John Colanzi
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 travelled the mountain and amassed a fortune in
the process, was J. Paul Getty.
In his autobiography Getty lists his 10 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 Colanzi
