"Exploit the incomes vulnerabilities and needs of others they can monetise with their own existing higher wealth band?" Yes that is very true but not a bit of me… landlords really get under my skin. Not the ones that take a risk to have 1/2 properties but the ones who buy everything up and get greedy with it | |||

"They usually work for it or inherit it. Sometimes they win it." I certainly won’t inherit it… I try to work for it but I’m afraid it’s well out of my reach really difficult to get something of such a high profile! | |||

"Hey, I’m a totally money driven individual which has its pros and cons. But if I see something that I feel I can make a cut on I’m all in! What do you believe millionaires do to generate such an income? Who wouldn’t enjoy to choose the car they like rather than just the car that they can afford? Or the house, the holidays… wouldn’t life just be so much simpler with that money behind you do do as and what you really want to do and enjoy!" Moeny is freedom but if you spend your life trapped in the pursuit of it, that is a prison | |||

"Also the idea that those who aren’t rich, aren’t because they don’t work as hard/ hard enough or that they are bad with money, lazy etc are all crapitalist myths. People work hard and can barely afford to pay someone else’s mortgage or heat their house or feed themselves or their children. " Absolutely, I’ve been there working 60 hours a week barely able to keep a roof over my head and those days are the ones that keep pushing me forward to try and avoid the situation I was in and better myself | |||

The problem round here is that a lot of people are paper millionaires not through greed but through the rise in house prices. "Yeah. Funny I was talking earlier tonight about how my Nan’s house has gone up by £1M in value in 20 years since she bought it. Buying in London I guess. | |||

"Sometimes right place right time. An older friend of mine was travelling in Australia years ago and met a film producer with an idea for a film but too broke to put it together. My friend to took a punt and invested 5k. The film was Crocodile Dundee. Some people just seem lucky like this individual, but then in his life he's taken risks with money I would never have done. That being said he's considered and considers himself poor among his circle of friends. So even with millions like him it's not necessarily the case that you feel you've 'made it' and it's only relative to the people you associate with often. " Wow what a story to have nonetheless! That’s true, I’d like to think I’d keep a very simple life but be able to have nice holidays a decent car that I like rather than just afford etc | |||

"Millionaires aren't what they used to be. There are a lot of pensioners in the south east who bought their houses 60 years ago and are now with over a million but they still can't afford to put the heating on. The trouble with driving towards mass wealth is you never achieve it, the more you get the more you want. There's nothing wrong in wanting to be successful but you'll only be happy when you are content in what you have and appreciate the true value of things. A man waking his dog to meet his friend in a pub for a quick pint is probably far happier than a bloke stood in a champagne bar bragging to strangers that he's just bought a £50,000 Rolex. To make money you need to have a gift (eg elite sportsman), or spot an opportunity and throw everything at it to make it a success. Most successful people I know, didn't get it right first time and had many failed attempts before finding something which works. Unfortunately, to be truly successful in a money sense, you need to be truly ruthless, bit like Mr Musk." Some very good points indeed! I have an end goal and once I get it I’ll pack my job in and live life the best I can I wouldn’t want to over do it | |||

Most of us just don't take those big risks, which is absolutely fine, so we're never likely to see the big financial rewards except by pure luck. | |||
