Perhaps there is the assumption that if you have enough money to start your own business and go the entrepreneurship route, you likely got that money from somewhere else like an inheritance. I'm guessing that seed money wherever it came from leaves less of a "starting from nothing" impression. I'm going with investing since that is likely my only shot at actually gaining wealth.
Investing is probably my only route. I think the other thing with starting a business to be wealthy is, what kind of business and what level of wealth. I know a lot of people who have made themselves very comfortable from nothing, but they aren't going to be on a very rich list.
Yeah, that is probably a good point. Rich is also quite relative I am assuming...
