Poverty can be self-inflicted or hereditary but it’s easy to rise from the rags to where the wealthy rank. There are several secrets wealthy people don’t reveal to the poor, and it’s because of the level of interaction between the two distant classes.
It’s unfortunate that the poor don’t have the slightest clue of what being wealthy entails, but here are the most hidden secrets of the rich.
- Employ your brains more than your physical strength
It is evident that the entire caliber of poor people trust their physical energy more than their brains. In a single day a poor man can burn thousands of calories but end up making few coins. Rich men often trust their brains more than their physical strength-only the rich know this secret
- Interact with those who are doing better than you
Rich people have their role models, where they draw their inspiration from. These people often seek audience from these people and can even spend money to get ideas from them. But poor men don’t have boundaries, they find it easy to interact with people who are doing poorly in the entire universe.
Interacting with out-of-touch people exposes you more and makes you better, eventually you cut a niche for yourself.
- Rich people don’t heavily rely on church for success but poor people believe that frequenting church will make them successful one day.
Poor people always try their luck in church after finding it hard to cope with life. You will find these people always praying for wealthy, waking up at 5 in the morning for prayers. Rich people on the other hand absolutely believe that wealthy comes through sheer hard work. After he accumulates wealthy, the rich man will seek God’s blessings through philanthropic work.
- Time Management
A poor man does not have a schedule, he is a poor time manager. This man will wake up at 5 am planning to go to his garden, only to end up in a political rally to listen to politicians. This man does not have a plan for tomorrow. The same thin skinned man will plan to go to the market, on his way he will realize there is an accident, he will spend the whole day staring at the wreckages-forgetting he was to be in the market.
A rich man has a diary, he indicates what he will do and at what time. This man has programmed himself, he strictly follows what the diary dictates.
- A rich man is ever resilient
A rich man never gives up even after being disappointed in several occasions. Nothing will ever put this man down. But a poor man will try something and after finding it hard to crack the idea, he will try another idea until he finally gives up and returns to his cocoon.
- Investment decisions
When a poor man, by luck gets money, he will resort to buying expensive cars, home theatre, move to a more expensive house, travel here and there and have as many girlfriends as possible. But a rich man will invest in real estate, stocks and money market, invest in oil and jewelry industries and also keep away from women. This man invests where the he can reap big.
- Education
A poor man believes that accumulating more certificates will definitely make him rich, show me a professor who became rich by publishing more, studying hard and becoming the best employee! By all standards, all means and all possibilities, education won’t make you rich, it will only provide the basics of success.
Once a rich man realizes he can count money, save and invest, he loses appetite for education. If you find a wealthy person enrolling for a PhD, know that that man is insane. Rich people receive honorary PhDs, they don’t burn their energy doing hard things which have little impact on their lives.
