[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 669294, member: 60724"] RichardL, I agree with most everything you say, but the rich that R Shek talks about have another thing in common (besides being educated, coming from well-to-do roots, and running their own companies) and that is that they tooks RISKS. Bill Gates left Harvard and a safe, conventional career track that would have allowed to to be "better than well off" like his dad, and risked that to be where he is today. He put in a lot of hard work those first few years, and with significant risk. "Safe" is working hard, following the well trodden path, investing wisely to get your 8% to 10%, and it's what a lot of people do...some that many here would consider rich. But that's not how you create wealth. TJR [/QUOTE]
