3 June 2004 - get rich quick

< yesterday -- tomorrow >

If you grow rich through hard work, you stay motivated by considering yourself poor the whole time. Then when you succeed, you can’t fully appreciate your wealth. If you grow up rich, you can’t appreciate it because you don’t know the alternative. That’s why I’ve chosen to become rich by peddling get-rich-quick schemes.
