How to become a millionaire even when you're poor
« on: September 24, 2017, 07:35:54 PM »
Denying yourself a sandwich to save $4 is totally unnecessary.  Too bad this forum preaches extreme frugality, so much that people feel guilty when they spend on a few little dollars on themselves.  It's time for a better plan.

A Better Plan 

Step 1:  Save $100k.  In America any adult can save this much.  In fact it takes less than $100k, but I set it at this amount to weed out all the lazy people who would rather whine than work.

Step 2:  Invest in a business (or start a business) that would return 10x your investment in a few short years.  STOP COMPLAINING!  The business opportunities are out there.  You have to look. 

[MOD NOTE: Seems like a troll to me]

Step 1: Be a millionaire.

Step 2: Don't not be a millionaire.

Again, you're completely missing the point of this forum. Trolls gonna troll.

Good one.  Investments that return 10-fold in a few years are a dime a dozen.

LOL

This is the same person that told everyone to burn a $100 bill and if we weren't willing to do that, we had an unhealthy obsession with money. After all, "LessIsLess" right?

What is the point of this forum exactly?  Live like a nobody for years on end, so you may have "enough" one day to slither into nothingness and wither away?

If you save &100k, you are already not poor.

How do I get from poverty to $100k?

Pretty sad that you need to ask this, ixtap. Kinda thinking you might be a nobody. Here's how it works...

[waves hands in a dramatic fashion]

just save $100k (it's easy, anyone who's not a nobody can do it). then....

[yadda, yadda, yadda]

invest it in a business with a 900% return on investment...

[ta-da!]

you're rich!

 

Wow, a phone plan for fifteen bucks!
