The Creation of Wealth

There is only one way to create wealth: CREATIVITY

There are only two ways to amass very large amounts of money:

One – Create Wealth

Two – Steal it

The rest of us who are not creators or thieves are just tools for the ones that are.

We’re the workers making it all possible, keeping the system running.

There are thousands of ways of making a living, too many to mention and too unimportant to analyze.

Working for a living will not make you rich.

The richest man in the world (at some point in time) was Bill Gates.

He and others like him, Steve Forbes, Henry Ford, Mark Zuckerberg, Ellan Musk and many more like them are CREATORS.

Creators create wealth by offering to society necessary products or services.

There are also other people with very large bank accounts, people like J P Morgan, Charles Schwab or Warren Buffet.

They make money by taking it from the wealth creators.

They have created a system that forces people in debt by making it almost impossible to function in the society, unless you are extremely rich, without using their system.

You have to know all this in order to understand the “Golden Rule”

“He who has the Gold makes the rules”

This society was not been built for your benefit but for the benefit of the rich.

The notion of democracy and the myth of the American dream were fabricated to keep the people hoping and somehow believing in a future they will never have.

The best you can do is make a living, maybe save some money for retirement and hope not to die before your savings run out.

My advice to you. Stop making a living it will only have you killed.

The easiest way to make a lot of money is to steal it.

The problem with that is that if you were not born rich, you are not allowed to steal and if you do you will end up in jail. Not a very good way to spend your life.

The second-best way to become financially independent is to employ your creativity.

What people do not understand is that you can do that right here and now.

If you want to build personal computers in your garage and sell them to millions of people or if you can make a painting and sell thousands of copies online, the principle is the same.

The scope and size of your enterprise may be different but the principle is the same:

You have to offer other people a product or service they want.

Do you have a passion, a talent something unique to offer to the society?

Then you have it. You are in business.

Have you ever heard of “Famous Amos” who became a millionaire by selling chocolate chip cookies?

Well, that’s the way you do it.

People believe you must have the next greatest invention, a revolutionary new product nobody has ever made. WRONG

People believe you must have a large amount of money and time to invest. WRONG.

People believe that you must have the business knowledge to run a business. WRONG again.

I used to work with a fellow named Mike. He started selling homemade candles as a side business.

I watched him starting from nothing.

He started by selling candles to his coworkers on special occasions like Valentine’s Day or Christmas.

I helped him setup his first online website.

He had no business plans, no ambition no grand expectations.

He just loved what he was doing and he kept on doing it.

He started by making a few dollars profit here and there and then a couple of hundreds every month.

He developed relationships with people and his little side business grew and grew.

Eventually, he had to cut his regular working hours in half to tend to his online business and then to quit his employment entirely and become self-employed.

I’m not saying that he is making a fortune in his new business but he is making a living doing what he loves. And that should be what all of us and our children should strive for.
