Anyway, I believe Steve Pavlina has also said something along the same lines. Basically, I would like to reach that point of knowledge. To be smart enough- well educated enough in the field of economics and business, to be able to go from broke to millionaire in a matter of a couple of years, is worth more than many millions of dollars.
This being said, I know there are people out there who know how to do it- I also know that much of this knowledge is floating around on this site--- the only problem i currently have is that i cant read fast enough to absorb all that knowldge. My Photoreading package seems to have been lost in the mail  . |
I think you hit the nail on the head with this one buddy.
The first one that comes to mind that was able to go from billionaire to bankrupt to billionaire again is Donald Trump. Also, I heard that there were a group of millionairs that will periodically would challenge each other on who could make the most profit starting a business or investment with no money of their own.
