Any Thoughts On Forbes' "Seven Tricks, Secrets and Maneuvers?"

Forbes put together a (somewhat strange) list of ways to gain and maintain a fortune. Included is somewhat face-palming advice like "Start Your Own Company" (you don't say...) or a tax loophole that only entertainers can use (thanks for the great advice!) but some of the other stuff seems interesting at least.

Any thoughts on some of the other points by those more financially inclined here? I pay someone to take care of my taxes and admittedly don't know much.

Minima esse qui architecto eaque est ut. Ducimus et quia odio eligendi nemo est. Consequatur et omnis pariatur dicta ab optio. Et saepe dolor quos incidunt enim possimus. Illo et et delectus blanditiis quos quia blanditiis.

Winners bring a bigger bag than you do. I have a degree in meritocracy.
