exactly, this is my blueprint bro....just live under my means, be smart...save and invest and be free

freedom > money, esp considering all money is, is a perception....ppl get stressed out trying to live lifestyles that see from movies


once u have the basic necessities youre good ...the materialistic shyt has no value anyway

Don't get married, don't have kids, own a condo of some sort or have roommates to cut costs, and stack like a madman till you make your first million, then flip the profits.

I think you missed the point of my post.

All you just said was obvious as fukk, but the fact of the matter is that no one is going to become a millionaire working a 9-5 ALONE. Of course you are going to need side ventures and all that shyt. Owning your own business is a far leap from working a 9-5 under someone. Tell me something I don't know.
Sorry I thought you meant 9-5 in an absolute sense.
Yeah I agree that thinking about racking up a million being an employee is "delusional" in some way, like it's almost impossible, plus you'll probably never make it before you turn 30-35.
It's really that much rare.

It seems impossible because brehs are thinking in terms of working for someone. No one is really reaching milly status with that J word. But you will be content, and angry at millionaires though.

Being a millionaire is not easy, but it is simple. Be an authority. Build a large, dedicated audience. Create your own quality product(s). Sell those products to your dedicated audience. Never stop expanding. Done. Look at Tariq Nasheed, for example. Maybe he's a millionaire, maybe he's close, maybe he's not. But obviously that the time put into those flex step boots or the melanoid nation flags are way less than the time nigs spend at their jobs doing repetitive tasks quoting tired stats about businesses failing.

With his DVDs, lectures, clothing, podcast, advertisements, movies, books, colognes, dude can easily make that dough. Not to be in that man's pockets, :dame: but when he was here in Philly, I think he made like 8K for a two hour lecture. Tour was three spots, that at least 24k for 6 hours of work. Imagine doing a bunch of lectures in a year or two.

I think he has like 100k followers -- If 10,000 fatherless brehs bought his mackish package alone, that's a million right there.

A million is not a lot of money.

You either missed the point of becoming a "self made millionaire" or you've never seen one (most likely).

My deadline to open my own business is March 1th 2016, and this considering I'll have my last health check in mid January and after that I'll move in another country.

People lack ambitions and common sense, how in the fukk you want to be a self made millionaire if you DON'T EVEN THINK about putting in work?
"b b b but they don't work 9-5", yeah maybe now, but you had to be there from d1.

The thing is, it doesn't have to take too long, if you can't make a million in a 3 year span owning a business that CAN allow you to realistically make that money (COMMON SENSE, people out there dreaming about millions opening laundrettes) then maybe you're doing something wrong.
And in that same amount of time you have to be able to eventually replace yourself (working role) with employes, to focus on other ventures or just to live the life (if you're happy with it).

My long term goal is to own multiple businesses (at least 2), buy a house in London for me and my family, finish paying my mom's mortgage and STILL be a millionaire within 25 years of age.
I'll turn 22 in 2016.
What business you got going breh?

Its all about making a good salary and having investments. If you ever watched Dave Ramsey's YouTube videos he has millionaires call into his show. Normally they have like 1-5 million. They have their money invested but the majority of them make good ass money a yr. like 100k

I'd say you aren't gonna make 1 million+ Alone by just working a regular job and saving.

I also hate how he acts like the people making 100k+ a yr are normal people when the avg family isn't making that unless they are somewhere like NYC or Cali.
nuccas in cali aint touching that either. we out here starving too. baaa leee dat. so cross us off the list. truth is. white MEN are touching 100k+ with ease. not all. but its not nearly as hard as it is for black folks. put it that way. or women in general(white chicks too).

some do obviously but most dont.

one of the posters said to another poster in this very thread "i bet you dont even know any millionaires" .. .Probably not. so once again you think you're special because you do. and truth is you are. you got lucky, you lucked up and have friends/family or people you know that are touching that kind of cash. i know a few people seeing that money. and guess what they do for a living? Enteratinment(Music, SPORTS). thats it. like i said. those are the primary ways to touch that sort of cash in one job on one salary.

Yea I'm not saying everyone in Cali is making that but I'm sure much more people are around that rate versus someone down south or something. Especially since rent is easily in the thousands there just for a month.
