you are right, first of all you need to make a decent plan that would allow you to make some decent money
you're talking like "you need to make money to get money" that's not goinf to resolve any problem although decent plan doesnt mean it can earn you decent money,sometimes even decent plan will give you small money
That's is the fastest way to get rich, it takes money to make money and one good example on that is investing or trading, if you are going in doing the aforementioned then you will be rich easy, our jobs will give us something to spend for our needs but it will not make us rich.
Jobs won't make your rich that's really important to understand,you need to go on the grind,jobs won't make you anything,they'll just give you cash to trade and invest and from there you can actually take it to the next level
