Riches is not measured by the amount of money that is in somebody's possession or account neither is it measured by cars nor lands. I have come to understand that been rich and been wealthy is more of what a person has on the inside than what he has outside hence been rich is a mindset. Meaning a person can be riding a big car, staying in a luxurious house and wearing expensive clothes and still be considered poor why? Because all he has are his material earning and nothing on the inside. Another may be considered rich even though he is not manifesting and showcasing wealth but he has something more than gold on the inside of him. What makes a man rich is not money but a mindset.
There are unique features a rich person possesses that make him different and set him on a higher page .some of these feature are;
He sees tomorrow and not today:

No matter the outcome of an investment today a rich man is not bothered whether he loses or he gains all he knows it would be better tomorrow and that's what he base his attention and hope on. A poor man in the same position as him would be so anxious and troubled about the outcome and if paredventure he suffers loss he would complain and swear never to invest in that business againbut the rich would be so considerate of a possible future in that business.
This is the story of a young man who sold his house to purchase bitcoin as at the time bitcoin increased to $13000 plus, but unfortunately for him the price dropped to $11000 he was so impatient so he sold the bitcoin he had only for him to discover from a friend few days later that the price has increased to $15000. At this point this young man would be beating and fighting his self for impatience. Impatience is an attribute of a poor minded man not the man who is ready to explore.
He talk less and listen more: This is another important attribute of rich man no matter how interesting the matter of discourse is he is always in the quite mode not because he is naturoney quit but because he knows that>he cannot talk and listen at the same time so he makes the deliberate decision to choose the most profitable one and that is to listen.
I read about a wealthy young man who whenever he is in the midst of his friends he barely say a word of which the wife took notice of and asked him why is it that you are always quite whenever you are with your friends he replied and said what I know I already know but they know I do not know what they know so I have to stay quite to learn from them.
This man look selfish but it is the best instead of pouring out your secret of exploit why not keep it to yourself and learn from others.
He thinks beyond his capacity:
A wise man once said a dream that is achievable without stress or much effort is not a dream is a routine.
A rich man haven achieved some few goals always put his self to trial on his ability to achieve goals that seem unachievable. He never accept that general quote:
sow your coat according to your size.He reach out for greater things and set out plan to achieve it.
He is teachable:

A poor minded man is the man that thinks he knows it all no matter what your knowledge whether good or even the best means nothing to him. But he who is of the class of the rich thinks even that he knows nothing he his open to new knowledge and ideas even if it is coming from a child.
Remember learning stop at death and if you are not ready to learn then you are good to die
He thinks fast and act slowly: No matter the bulkiness of a new idea or plan a rich man would never be in an hurry to achieve them, he knows that no matter what he would achieve his plan so he relaxes himself while trying to achieve his plans.
He is always positive about an issue:I read the story of a young engineer who was given the contract to supervise the construction of a building, haven kept all things in place he left them he employed for the construction. On his arrival to the site he discovered that everyone were sitted with long faces, he was curious to know why they were sad, they answered and said to him that the wind blew all their materials away and the rain fell and covered them with mud so they are not okay for use. With smile in his face he told rise and lets get started. The mud was still on the materials but he was positive that the issue could be resolved within limited time.
This is the mindset of a rich man though the situation is obvious he acts as though nothing has happened and he looks for a suitable means to get a solution to a problem. It may sound stupid to many persons but doesn't make it stupid, stay positive
He is orderly:No matter what the rich does not jump into doing things, all of his activities are planned and scheduled. He is the type of a person that would not use another persons timing for his activities that is he would never do a thing because his friends are doing it because his friends timing is not his timing hence using it means he is replacing a specific activities with another. There is no such thing as impromptu to him, all his plan are scheduled.
He spends less and save more: To every income that he reeives he has a specific percent that he saves
The poor spends and then save anything left or may not save at all. Not because he does not have enough while the rich save and spend whatever remains. This is his strategy for exploit
He does not settle for one idea but rather he search for new: Many years ago Nokia was dominating the mobile community but all of a sudden new companies such as Apple took over and now Nokia is no where to be found, they did nothing wrong but they were too relaxed. Haven invented some thing new he begins another journey for a better invention or ideas that would better the quality of his product.
God is his centre and number one consultant:

No matter what happens a person can not excel without God involvement, a rich man involves God in all of his activity not just bringing God in but gives him the very first place.
no matter the wisdom a man possess or the precautions kept in place for exploit without God it is empty and futile. The big dreams and goal are all unachievable without God.
For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
Hebrews 11:10 KJV
Without God the building would not stand so make God your builder and see how you would excel.
