"Its not your fault if you are born poor but it is your fault if you die poor" - Bill Gates
Who here has made it rich in life and will share their story? Who has caught the affluenza bug? Some of its symptoms:
1. Work is optional.
Work is for the poor. You own lots of assets which pay you a ton of passive income - more than any salary can. If you work, its on your terms and purely optional.
2. You can hire someone to be your personal servant.
If your friends or family are in financial trouble, you come to their aid by hiring them full-time to be your personal chef, your personal cleaner, your personal chauffeur and your personal game designer. They take orders from you and listen only to you and your tastes.
3. You appreciate art and why its so expensive.
You can understand why art by some of the best artists costs $200M. You understand that computer games are an art and why they are so expensive to make. What's more, you can afford to buy art.
4. You worry about dying rich.
The most horrible thought is that you should suddenly die and have tons of money unspent.
5. You don't even look at the price of common things.
You buy what you like and you are unconcerned with price.
