Let the author first understand the difference between Wealth and Money in all senses(Philosophical,Economical and social senses) and then very well she can come ahead and publish but not in this satet of immature mind where she is as good as a kid.
Great sensible stuff. It is very easy to get carried away in today's irrational optimistic environment. One of the classical wealthy industrialist remarked that the current spending spree is by the people who have tasted monetary freedom for the first time. Empty vessels make more noise.
But I also agree that everyone has the right to spend her money the way she likes it. Articles like this only provide a healthy check on our priorities. If Nike makes you happy or Skoda gives you self-worth, go ahead. Life is to enjoy - money or no money! Because if you are happy, then only you can make others happy and make a difference in your environment.
The title of the article is interesting. But, here are some facts. Investors make money (as in, BIG moneY),only when you invest big! Small investments always make small money- short term or long term- and I am talking legal money!
Focus is a dangerous strategy! The key difference between someone rich and someone wealthy is that the wealthy one has many sources of income, the rich have few! The wealthy one has risk diversification, through income diversification - whereas the rich have limited sources of income!
The title is great, but the writing is a bit of a let-down!
I completely agree with the comments as why its good to be wealthy and not rich . I don't think that today's generation will understand it assuming that they are very practical . But then everyone has its attitude , the need is to change and Change Attitude . I once again thanks to writer of the article .
