Everyone wants to get rich, but not many people want to buy books on how to get rich.
I think the stock market investing and opening business is the best way to get rich.
So does anyone know of other ways to get rich or more details on what I said? Note this is a forum where people respond. Not all answers may be good, and some may be better then others. We could discuss that once enough ideas come. NO SPAM
(this doesn't seem to fit in forum games or world politics and religion so tavern seems to be the place)

stick to a job

Sticking to a job is not an effective way of getting rich, if you want to get rich you have to be always ready to find an other job with better salaries, opportunities for advancement and benefits.

If you are son of a rich, you have two choices.

1. Wait till your dad die.
2. Assasinate him, of course, you will do it that it seems like an unfortunately accident.

marry someone who is rich and then make sure you are in their will. then she/he "accidentaly" dies. or you could work hard and slowly build up money and don't buy unneccesary, expensive things like a new sports car

Be reasonable! Do you need to kill your parents to get money off them?

Start out with alot of money, then make an orchestra business. As wood instruments age the prices can only go up!

Well there is another way, though I'm not completely for it.

Gambling.

Many people have made small fortunes this way. But as with any gambler, they just play it all out until they lose it all again.

I'm not of legal age to gamble but if I were, i would take a set amount of money, say $100-$200 (maybe that $75 from before haha) but as soon as i gain X amount of money, i would put it away, like every $20-$50 or so.
Now idk if i would honestly do this coming from a long line of gamblers, starting with my great great grandfather who lost 30 acres of land in a game of poker...so i'm not sure if i would actually do it, it's just the most logical thing to do in my mind.

Good lord, I hope that doesn't reflect you personal views...because honestly ever person on this planet owes their parent, or whoever raised them their lives. And simply wanting to kill them is a terrible idea...

Gambling is probably a pretty bad idea, unless you cheat...because you're just setting you self up for failure.

Personally, I "gamble" all the time, but its low cash, we play Texas Hold'em with nickels, dimes, quarters, and $1, among my friends. I've made maybe like $22 to date, only had to buy back in once. (buy-ins being $1). Grant it if you add everything up its most likely less, but i always go in with a set amount of money each day and then play until i either lose it all or gain some from my starting value. if that makes any since.

That is why i suggested gambling. It was just another example of how to get money(or lose) "quickly"...

Investments are almost as bad as gambling Trablis. Maybe worse, considering you don't really have much control in where your money goes, how it is spent, etc.

Also buying "useless things" are part of saving money, you save money so you CAN buy useless things. A sort of better explanation (kind of) is in my first comment on page one.

What if you get rich the easiest way there is? Invent something that everybody wants to buy and make sure you own all the rights to it. Duh.

That is not too easy, people don't pull inventions out of their a****. It requires some effort, commitment and a stroke of genius.

yeah, i personally have invented 2 things that i thought would be a great hit, never got past the prototype stage T_T but it took me 2 months to make sure that it had not already been created and has a copyright on it...

Then we, me and 2 friends, tried to make T-Shirts to sell...we made about 6$ to buy 5 white t-shirts, then it was like 15$ to paint all 5...and we sold them at 10-15$ each (depending on size/design) ... yeah we sold maybe 3 out of the 10 we started out with...so we lost profit (had we sold all of those for 15$ we would have made a 3 dollar profit if you were doing the math) that was NOT a get rich quick idea i'll tell you that..
