1. Own your own business
2. Be a smart, technical investor
3. "Act As If"
More detail:
1. Don't be someone else's bitch. And don't work in the buisness you own, work On it (Gerber, E-Myth)
2. Don't invest in mutual funds. invest in property, businesses, stocks that provide Passive income. Don't gamble.
3. "Act As If" if you haven't seen The Boiler Room, see it and memorize Affleck's rant "Act As If". Act as if you own a multi million dollar corporation and start there. Don't start with the idea of owning a petty business and then hope you can change into an IBM type company once you make more money because you will not get there. You have to act as if from the beginning.
The same applies to running. act like an amateur and you will always be an amateur.
Oh Yeah, FUCK Job security and f*** getting and keeping a job. Stop being a f***ing pussy. If you settle for this lot in life, you are going to be f***ed in the ass over and over. This is the Communication age and companies don't need your college pampered ass no matter how much cock sucking you do. You will be automated and I love the idea because it makes me money..if it doesn't make you money, if it loses you money, then you're on the wrong side of the playing field. And if you think that starting a business with all of the mistakes that go with it or starting technical investing is too hard,...then why are you working 40-50 hour weeks? That's harder work than I do and I'm richer than you by far. If money doesn't matter, why are you f***ing working so hard and posting messages about job security? because you went to college and you expected INstant gratification right out of college. Instant gratification, the sin that will eat you alive and spit you out when job security is a thing of the past.
