How to Become Very Rich (6/4/07)

When we went on a vacation 20 years ago we visited the Vanderbilt estate in North Carolina.
The Vanderbilts were one of the richest people on earth back in the 19th century and part of the elite class.
How did they get so rich? Shipping. They supplied the growing industry that served the masses.
So how does one become filthy rich.
Look at Bill Gates who went from a upper middle class family to the same status of super rich.
He provided something that has served the masses in todays\'s world.
When I was learning 30 years ago about how to get rich I heard a saying,
" If you want to be of class serve the masses."
I had an understanding of this but didn't know how to do it.
Now do you have a way of doing it? Do you really want to do that?
There are alot of sacrifices made to do this.
Let me know your thoughts on this.
Everybody is different and can dream but don't act on their dreams.

Of course you have to serve the masses to become rich...look at Ray Crock [sic].
Just find something that everyone needs, and either produce it or distribute it (ideally both) for next to nothing but make sure it'll have a decent market value....sounds simple..no?
