I Was Destined to be a Millionaire
Are you?
I was thinking the other day how nice it would have been for me to know that I would actually become a millionaire someday. The lack of stress would have been nice. I know that no one can know their future, but just to get a glimpse, that would have been awesome. Perhaps I can be that lens for you. Maybe this will give you a view of your financial future.
Are you destined to be a millionaire?
I think I should stress the idea that to become a self-made millionaire, there are so many variables. There is so much of chance and environmental conditions that even in the best of cases it would be hard to predict. Notwithstanding, I believe there are three major reasons why I became a millionaire.
- Living where I live, I have opportunity.
- I didn’t waste away the money I earned and saved.
- The cash I generated was put to work to earn more money.
Let me discuss these three points briefly.
Opportunity
I live in North America. You probably do as well. And you don’t have to live in North America to have opportunity, you can find it almost anywhere. But where I live opportunities abound. It really boils down to freedom to do as you please. I am free, and so too are you.
