Have you ever asked yourself, why there are others who are able to make money five times, ten times or even a thousand times more than the amount you receive? Is it because they are a thousand times more intelligent than you? Are they a thousand times to work harder than you? Or because they are more fortunate than you? Hmm ... time they have together with you ... are both 24 hours ... So all the answer is NO!

What's the point? You're saying people who make more money than you is not more intelligent than you? That's what I understood. Please explain us a little bit what are you talking about...

Yes I don't get the point too. He asked questions intended for anyone to answer but at the end of the sentence he answers them with a big NO without explaining why. So where exactly this discussion is going?

There are many things that can happen even if no money. I started a car rental business with no money at all, only the capital believed to vehicle owners. Other equipment such as typewriters, tables and chairs, all borrowed.
Jakarta riot time in 98, I can also go to jogja without out any money - because it could not take the money. Even for 2-day trip, I also can eat without pay - and not nyolong or deceptive.
In my opinion, money is necessary, but not as a main factor. That is, if you want to do something, it would be better if you have money, because with the money we could get more than just a knee capital. But, if there was no money also does not mean can not do anything about it.

Yes of course I've done that in my life, comparing myself with others and feelingf this life is unfair. Then I would feel miserable and started to lose confidence. I must say, stop comparing yourself to other people unless the outcome is positive reflection to improve yourself. being envious will bring us down, start believing yourself that you can do more than the others

yes, i agree with you that money is not everything, but i also know that people without money is nothing, lol. And i think the most important factor to earn more money is one word "method". we just need an effective method, but this is also the most difficult thing. wish you good luck!

Hi there :)
Many times I too wonder why they are so 'fortunate'.little did I know that some of them had multiple online businesses and some even had been in this industries for years. I read many of their articles about it and all of them said one thing in commom: this is not an overnight job and earning. It will take time and efford to do so. Not to forget, facing failures and dissapointment is normal. I learned that earning money is not easy and we have to work hard for it all the time :)
Have a great day guys!

The answer is, they are more hardworking and they are willing to sacrifice time in order to earn more money. MOney is everywhere to be earned, while time is the same for everybody, 24 hours. There are people whom earned alot, but we don't know the hard work behind their success. SOme people might be earning 5k or so a month, but they are not holding onto one job only. When people are sleeping soundly, they are out at work. It's sacrifices that makes them rich.

Of course not. Money is not everything. You are right! Money is a media that transform value of something that counts. It can not buy what you cannot count. For example, you can not buy LOVE, friendship, or wisdom. Money itself doesn't have any value itself. The "value" depends on how the owner sensibly use them.
Yes, how you gain the money also can not prove that you are successful. People, nowdays, like to value a person with how much they have. The guys who have a great fortune may gain money far more easily.
In conclusion, it is just "a game of digit". A good player may not be a happy guy!
