@kwanini. hang on there dude and you will. Do not Just work hard, Play smart. And Pray hard.Believe. A Combination of all bring about success. But remember that satisfaction and happiness is the Most crucial thing. It is Paramount.Some of the Millionaires you see around have heavy Burdens you wud rather not carry yourself. Why be a millionaire and have Poor health? Why be a Millionaire and have ountless court cases?


I think people need to read biographies of rich people. I am currently reading the book 'Money Masters of our times' by John Train. I think Buffet is the happiest man in the world because he does not wallow in the consumerism of the typical billionaire. He has not let money affect him for money cannot buy you happiness. Happiness is a state of mind and you dont have to live in Runda to be happy. I am trying to emulate him. I have stayed with the same Nokia phone (slightly above the kabambe) for the last two years. I make a million ksh every month.

Ditto, conspicuous consumption is the bane of our times. I appreciate a simple life and often times, my friends and colleagues do not appreciate why I choose to live where I live for instance but hey, that's life I guess.

Is it possible for one to be rich (millionaire with respect to our thread) but broke?
Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.

In 1957, Buffett had three partnerships operating the entire year. He purchased a
five-bedroom stucco house in Omaha, where he still lives, for $31,500

Money is a medium of exchange and a measure of value. This maasais are stinking rich. Those who own large tracts of land are also rich. There is a point that kiyosaki was trying to make. You dont buy a car to store value but its a consumption or for personal use. Although afamily house is an asset I do not think its open for disposal, eg to pay college fees for the kids. To consider yourself a millionaire me thinks you should only add those assets that you hold for the purpose of storing value as opposed to those held for living(clothes, cars, family house etc). Less any debts.

We should differentiate between being rich and wealthy.Maasai's are not rich but wealthy....You can be rich(have 2 million in an account) but not wealth.

In my understanding being rich is when you have money than is not generating money/value.

Being wealthy is having money/properties than generate value/money(either on paper or in cash)

I think its time I contributed to this thread. My age is 22. On long holiday. Third year university student. Made my first million last week through academic writing in a span of three months. Hired several classmates as writers and paid them 200 bob per page while I earn 10 dollars for each page. Will go on until the party stops. Problem now is investing the money passively to get monthly returns AWAY FROM ACADEMIC WRITING
A successful man is not he who gets the best, it is he who makes the best from what he gets.
