HI there MyLotters, good afternoon. I am thinking of things like various ways to attaining my goals in life, to be rich, in particular. In this world, there are many options to get rich. Two good examples of this options are be in the right side and be in the wrong side. What about if there are no more right side or good side available? Only the wrong side, would you rather have it and use it and try it just to get rich? Why? I need your opinion to this, thanks a lot.

Same here. I think we are only given a once in a lifetime, so we should take risk sometimes and do some things that will benefit us in the long run.

When I browse in the internet about those wealthy and rich people and who they are before they become rich. I think most of them started nothing and most of them were just average people just like us who dream to become rich one day. It's comporting to know that they started small and work their way the hard way just to get where they belong. In my case if doing something wrong or bad and against my principle in life just to get rich then I wont do it even if it's my only choice. I may be rich but if those mistakes I made in the past will haunt my world in my present time I will never had the peace of mind that is far greater than any wealth available here on earth.

No I would not. It is not right. There is always enough money to go round for everyone without stealing. Why do it the wrong way.

i cannot understand the 'the wrong side 'completely .if it contains cheating ,fraud ,do other people or partner on mercy ,these terrible things .i think no good person will do this even whatever big interests .the end will not be a happy one .

I could never imagine any goal other then the safety and welfare of my child causing me to act from the 'wrong side' as you call it. If money is your goal then you are correct it is difficult to get rich in this life. But if love, respect, friendship, etc. are your goals, well then it is easier then you would imagine to become rich. For what you give out comes back to you as sure as the sun rises each morning.

Hi!I would choose the right side of course.No point of being bad.It's about money we earned to feed ourselves/others.I can't imagine if i eat the food i bought using the money I earned from the illegal ways.a wrong side is always a wrong side. i'm sure there will be the right way to get rich.you need to keep looking on it not just waiting for it.:)

There's always a wrong side for every people. It's always about choices, and to me, I'm willing to get rich in every side which offers me to, even if it's a wrong one. But I still can make it up by doing good deeds on the money that I make. So it wont be too wrong, right ?

I would go for the right way. Then you will know that you earned what you have. And doing it the right way will give you experience, that will enable you to get richer. If you do it the wrong way, there is always the possibility that you will get caught, and everything you have will be taken away. Also you don't learn anything, so you can't really get any richer. You could, but it would just be a big red flag over your head. Someone would notice you.

Hello Well..I think there are always two sides of any thing you do, like the two sides of a coin..but if you say to assume there is only the wrong side availble to choose to get rich or get some money indeed..Well, Perhaps I may not use this way..and wait for the right side to re-appear..as I believe the money earned that way ( wrong way ) will not stay with you and you will never guess, that disappears fro myour hands..so whats the use of such money. Wish, there is always right way availble to me, in the life. Good Luck

Well, if you're planning to earn money illegally, i'm not gonna stop you. If you think you can handle it then you can always try. I'm only gonna stop earning money the right way if aliens have taken over and they made us slaves.

No, I don't want to get rich in doing bad. To be wealthy is good but it won't be good anymore in bad way. You may gain the whole riches in the world but if it looses your own soul, your reputation... what will you gain? I still believe that reputation is better than luxury. I would rather stay poor but have God in my heart
