Default Get rich quick. Finacial advice.

Save $5 a day for 40 years = over $900,000.

You must own a home. Buy a home before anything else. Before stock.

Keep credit card debt paid.

I don't know if 40 years qualifies as "get rich quick". It certainly qualifies under "get rich slow". 5 bucks a day equals $1,825 a year. I spend twice that on ZFilms annually and am getting more immediate gratification.

In 40 years, the daisies that I'm pushing up during my extended dirt nap will themselves be sequoias.

Default The key idea is you have to start thinking

like you‘re wealthy.

The lesson is that compounding will make you wealthy. $5 is nothing. Plug $10 in there. If you are in your 50’s you need to compound more money.

If you think “wealthy” you will automatically become wealthy. Think about the small things.

The $5 thing is based on how much most Americans spend on strokes they don’t need. A latté everyday. A pack of cigarettes. Desert for lunch. Take that money...pay it to yourself...put it somewhere where you won’t spend it...and over a period of time...it becomes a lot.

I'm already rich. Rich in friends. Rich in my profession. Rich in net worth. Rich in prospects. The only thing I don't have is enough time in the day to count all my riches.

Other than that, I'm rich, rich, rich - 'cept the money part. I'm so poor I can't even pay attention.

Default This thread is not for you.

It’s too late for you. Haha.

This thread is for ZZB, and others like her. People with a life in front and time to build. People with the talent and energy to make a difference. I’m talking wealth...not riches. The leverage to have some fun. The buy-in is simple.

Haha. Sounds like you pretty much have what you need...except one thing, maybe. Haha. You are pretty rich, though. As long as there are evil doers in the world and beautiful Chinese girls...your wealth will be secure.
