What OP listed are definitely 5 things you should not do with your money, in my opinion. They won't get you rich, but I'm not sure the title was to be taken literally anyway. It's mostly about managing your money, the way I understand and I have to say - good tips. When it comes to getting rich, starting your own business is a way to go, but it does take time and requires some sacrificing ("some" being an understatement in most cases).
