Are there any MILLIONAIREs here in this forum?

How long it took you? How much you make in a year? Do you spend a lot of it? Or you're saving it for a start-up of your own? Please don't troll (serious).

  1. I'm not a millionaire
  2. why do you care
  1. Obviously.

  2. Because it's interesting to ask questions and to learn about the world. I believe it is one of the sole reasons this forum exists.

I made the second comment because I feel like questions like this are akin to dick measuring after football practice. yes, money is a yardstick, but is he curious just to feel cool that he's among people with money? or is he legitimately curious as to how one attains financial independence? those are two very different questions, and too often on this forum I see kids drooling over the former (when people post salaries, bonuses, etc) instead of kids realizing wealth is simply the result of your lifestyle. are you a conspicuous consumer or are you frugal? are you a miser with immense wealth but wear underwear with holes in it? or, have you found the goldilocks zone between enjoying and amassing wealth?

I'm not against inquiry, I'm against poorly formulated questions which clearly lack genuine curiosity.

 

Ah thebrofessor! You just needed a few more words to explain yourself. Well said and I fully agree.

I am still of the school of thought that thinks it is better to retire on the beach in Thailand with $200k and a PokerStars account, than it is to have millions in NYC/SF/Boston. The rat race never ends, and you will never win. Also it is remarkably difficult to save anything in these markets after suckling the tax man, the daycare mafia, and having your wife vacuum up cash in a futile attempt to keep up with the Joneses.

 

Very true. American Psycho movie itself had to explain. I just want to make a million, and that will be my base. When I'm ~25 I will have that money. Banking is just a conduit for me to get it. From that, I want to travel the world and write novel, may be take on programming classes to venture off into business world after learning. I will never spend my life making money for banks by having my life energy drained for this crap.

 

I too look for millionaires. I am a Nigerian prince with diamonds I need to trade for liquid cash at immense discounts. I need this money for my people and to produce a rap album.
