7 Steps to Get Rich

7 Steps to Get Rich

1.            Save.

Start saving a percentage of your earnings. Get into the habit of always putting aside ten percent of your earnings before you do anything.

2.            Budget.

Sit down and work out a budget. Work out what you need to spend. Pay all the vital expenses first. Once your living expenses are covered, the rest is yours to spend. If you are wise, you may choose to save some of this money, or invest it in your education.

3.            Invest your savings.

Money must work for you. It is no good accumulating a fortune if you hide it under your mattress. Your money needs to work for you.

4.            Get expert advice on investment.

Make sure you get expert advice when investing your money. Do not go for high-risk investments unless the person advising you knows all about the business. A good rule of thumb is that if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. It is better to invest in a sound venture than to risk losing everything.

5.            Buy your home.

Your home can be one of the best investments you will ever make. There are many advantages in owning your own home. If … READ MORE ...

Disappointing Generation – Who’s Fault Is It?

Disappointing Generation - Who's Fault Is It?

I’m sure many of you have enjoyed watching TV shows exploiting our intelligence (or in some cases, ignorance), like “Who wants to be Millionaire?” or “Are You Smarter than Fifth-Grader?” Then there are those TV reality reporters taking survey of the “average citizen on the street” which ask what would most certainly be questions of what should be obvious knowledge; and finding such surprising answers showing what is often embarrassing ignorance or lack of concern for knowing the answers.

Even the relatively recent “Jaywalking” segments on the Tonight Show with host, Jay Leno tested the “common knowledge” base of average pedestrians in L.A. with such questions as: How many stars on the American Flag?? (52); Do you remember the last book you read?? (Uh, do magazines & comics count?); Where does the Pope live? (England); What’s the tenure of Supreme Court judge? (I’d guess four years); and on and on!!!!

Are we “cherry-picking” these comments to just produce “entertainment”?
