Good post.
There is no other way other than creating value OR making money work for you OR both to become rich.
What I have found is that MOST people feel fear of LOSING their existing status quo that includes their friends and sob stories that they share over a drink or something...and if one became rich - none of these stories would be true...and this one thing is BIGGEST hurdle than others.
With my RICHES, I WOULD START EDUCATION OF THE REAL KIND (Creating value/belief) FOR THE AMBITIOUS (ONLY)...There is no pride in trying to save everyone, as not all are looking to be saved!
Thanks for the good share!
