Nobody Gets Rich Working For Other People
 

Society Tells you to go to college, get a job, work until your hair turns grey, and you'll be rich and have all you need.
That is all bullshit.
Start your own empire or you will be just like every other dipshit out there.

Exactly, that's the way I think!

DJ - Do you have any idea how many employees at Microsoft, that Bill Gates made millionaires of? I do not know the exact amount off hand, but it is a HUGE amount of people...

How many millionaires have you made?

It's because society wants you to be professionals, like doctors, lawyers, computer scientists, not idiots getting a communication degrees and working at The Gap. If you actually go to school for something specialized you can easily make a small fortune without the hassle of running a business.

I think most people in this business have the same philosophy, Jedi. If we didn't want to build our fortunes on our own, we'd be working a 9-5 at the nearest quicky mart. :Graucho

I work for my customers

Agreed. Everybody has to start somewhere.

You have to eke out a living one crumb at a time but the path to success is revealed to the independent entrepreneur through perseverance.

I was going to say that... tons of companies have made their employees millionaires.. now the percentage of that happening to your typical mcdonalds employee is very small...

Besides you ALWAYS work for someone... always... otherwise you would have no income.. cuz some one has to pay u ;)

Being you own boss is the most important. I don't care if I'm millionaire but not having to follow orders is great.

Yes working as an oil exploration engineer thats why my brother is worth several million dollars has had a relativly stress free life and travelled the world as a free lunch.

At 43 he now sits back in Thailand living in obscene luxury.

I do not think US society pushes that as much as other cultures. The success of the United States has been the fact that society pushes people to do their own thing. The Entrepreneur spirit is the one this Nation was founded on, and allowed us to become the #1 Superpower.

In reference to Microsoft, 30 years ago Bill Gates as a geeky college drop out starting his own small company with a few employees....

Microsoft is an exception. As are a few other companies. A good chunk of those millionaires are sitting on their loot because they worked their stock options well.

If you want to get "rich" working for the man, you either need to be REALLY good or fall in the right hands at the right time.

What if you are really good and fall into the right hands at the right time. Does that give you an even better edge!?

I thought the US became the #1 Superpower because of 400 plus years of FREE SLAVE LABOR ....Oh yeah not to mention the FREE Land from those nice Indian people...Sounds like "The Entrepreneur Spirit" at it's best :thumbsup

Well DJ, I guess you finally got Kiosaki's book as well. It changed me the first time I read it as well. I bought a copy and had it sent to a guy in Detroit, I bought one for AMP (he didn't have a tape player so we took it back, and he doesn't have time to read) I bought it for my sister....

It's a good book.

Dont forget the collapse of Europe after WWII. America hasnt had a war on its soil in a while so it hasnt had to suffer setbacks in its progress while other nations have had to rebuild.

@ redshoe ...Man I tried to click your sig..but the guy is too fast..
:(

I just noticed you were from Texas.
Just put your mouse in the middle of the sig's path and click like a wild man. You'll hit it soon enough.

"Writing for a penny a word is ridiculous. If a man really wants to make a million dollars, the best way would be to start his own religion" L. Ron Hubbard.

Want to make a bet? I can walk away from this industry at any time. My boss can't.

And I'm making bank.

You are partly right DarkJedi, but some people become doctors and DO make a lot of money (it is just what your vision is about a "fortune").

But indeed, the real rich guys started their own business, creative people get rich, not the average stereotype 9 to 5 guy.

Please read above. My statement still stands true.

believe it or not, I'm actually an ordained minister. I told them I was part native american, and that my name was RedShoe. They believed me. :)

When I was just a little boy, I ask my teacher what this garbage courses is for?

I got to memorize a lot of dates, names, and places. I had to remember what shit some books author or music composer wrote. I think it is USELESS. They said it is NECESSARY.

Now I half agree with them. It is indeed necessary to turn us into working class drone. What they don't tell is that it is of course not necessary for our well being :D

If government don't regulate economy and education than going to school is probably not bad. But with all governments act, I need to have a business. I am glad I did.

I know plenty of people who made a ton of money working for somebody else. Plus, the boss can go bankrupt and have nothing but dept, while the emplyee just walks away with all the cash he made.

ok, why cant your boss walk away ?

and how much do you make ? i'm sure your boss makes atleast 10x more

i got ordained years ago on the web... some goofy lil website but yeah, it's apparently legit. :thumbsup

lots of people get rich working as an employee of others.

actors, specialists, athetes, etc.

rememeber THESE words if you want to get rich.

If you want to get rich you need to be able to do what other people can't do or won't do.

that's the key - that's it. period.

wow.. did a bunch of u guys just read robert kiyosaki's book or something? lol

no comment

sleazydream build his business on
writing porn stories and pics..

something nobody else in the whole world can do :)

college grads on avg make 20k a year more. so yes it does help. you need more than just a degree to get 'rich'

dont forget all the yahoo millionaires. Even the secrataries made millions. Also fo ever self employed person that makes it huge there are tons who lose it all and end up working for someone else anyway.

I tell this to people every day...but no one listens.

bobv you are a freaking idiot.

Every nation, culture has had slaves. Why aren't they are the top of the food chain? What about in sub-Saharah Africa where slaves are still used? When are they going to become a world power?

The Unites Stated became a world power AFTER slavery, start around the Spanish-American war....

The US is the only Nation to fight a war over slavery, and to abolish it.

The US became and is the #1 economic power because of the freedom we have to start our own business, take risks, and do our own thing. Very few places around the world are as easy to start your own company, and start doing business. We also let people who create wealth keep it and not tax it all away.

Of course the past 50 years the Federal and State gov't have been making it rougher, and taxing companies more - but compaired to the rest of the world its still a better system.

Funny how the USA haters always pop up in the threads.... :321GFY
