There is no 10 steps guide book which will make you a rich person in moment. Sure there are a few who are lucky with bitcoin or trading other altcoins but in general the most of use have to work hard for it. Working hard means long hours, long days and a good discipline in saving money + investing money.
You are right with it, I don't know why there are a lot of books that tells some steps to become rich and they are supporting it that it is proven and been effective for all the time. But that is just their way to make their books to be sold by people. And that is what we need to do, let's convince ourselves that we are going to become rich if we are just able to have our own business.
