![]() The middle class mind set is oftimes a major problem to beginning business people. All their lives they have heard of the evils of having money and, although they want to be rich, they do not want to succumb to the evil of being rich.
My Daddy set me straight on the subject when I was but 10 years old ... The small community in which I was reared had 1,000 population (counting cats & dogs) and was by & large a Protestant town ... we had a few Jews, but they didn't count ... and one (Irish) Catholic family. Anywho ... the school sponsored a lyceum featuring a Catholic Priest who told us all about the Holy Roman Church; the Priesthood; etc. -- He made a big point of taking a vow of poverty. When I got home, I asked my Daddy why anyone would want to be poor ... and told him about the Priest's vow of poverty. -- He set me straight when he told me: "Son, they take a vow of poverty so they can help people - but - lemme tell ya something, a poor man can't even take care of himself, let alone help others. On the other hand, a rich man can help more people in one day than a poor man can in a lifetime." That's when I decided to get rich ... so I could help more people in one day than a poor man could in a lifetime. Think about it that way ... then do it. You would be amazed at the rewards far beyond the money you'll make. Jim FREE Money Making Reports & Resources |
