Starting a business with an old concept or investing in something that is hyped up never yields anything good. Something good can only be achieved when someone works with a new concept and starts investing in a new role. In this case, his competitors in the market are less and his success rate is much higher due to early adoption.
Success and becoming a wealthy person is very difficult for some and very easy for others because they know the way and they can implement their plans. There is no alternative to investment to become wealthy. Investment must be made. And that investment must be made at the right place and at the right time.
Of course, this is a very sound approach, but many people make huge mistakes here. True success can indeed be achieved only when a person works with a new concept and invests in a new niche. However, not all new niches are guaranteed to grow and make their creators wealthy. Many new niches die at the very beginning—along with the investments made in them. How many such examples have we seen in the pharmaceutical industry, for instance, or even in the IT sector? This happens very often—much more often than the cases where a new field takes off and enriches those who were involved from the start.
