Getting rich or been wealthy is never a day job as we may say it, it is always like a journey of a thousand miles which always begins with a step, there are certain strategies u need to consider self discipline is one of it commiting your self also on a longtime investment (goal).
Also been a salary earner won't make you get richer if you are not investing on it, it is always about what you do with the income you have, there is this saying that says no risk no reward people that gets rich in life are also risk takers.
The rich also invest on a long time asset that will be profitable to them in time coming while other people save their money stuck in the bank without any profit the are busy making their money grow for them on what they have invest into, it can be real estate and other profitable businesses.
the way the world is structured, every rich man has a lot of things in common and this is same with the poor man.
The thought process of the rich is totally different from that of the poor. While the poor thinks consumption, the rich thinks investment. While the poor sees impossibility, the reach sees opportunity and lots of possibility.
For me, what makes someone rich isn't that they have money or that thier parents have money or connection, once your mind is rich, it would only take time before it starts manifesting in the physical. Some people have this poverty mentality that has limited them to a point were they just conclude that they can't become rich at all.
Even in this our country that it appears as though things are very tough and difficult, with the right work, commitment, and dedication, you could become whatever you want to.
The main reason why the rich always becomes richer is that they have the mentality of never settling down so soon and regardless of their status, they don't neglect the fundamentals that brought them to the top.
