I have built and have known the builders of systems used to generate wealth, big money. None of us thought we were mining gold or silver. We each knew that we were building and selling the shovels, pans and picks for the miners. But we never sold “maps” to the locations of long lost wealth. I am constantly concerned by the number of people selling you maps. Not just because you won’t find wealth or have fun, but because you litter the roadside with wreckage, and they ruin the view with billboards.

Buy a map to the stars’ homes. Take some snapshots, buy souvenirs, enjoy more of the journey. That will be greater wealth than that millionaire’s secret to success. If you should make a couple million dollars on your own, you will meet honest money managers, someone to take care of the dirty details. Learn instead to share, to involve. These things don’t cost you anything, unless you’re one of the unlucky ones. In that case, they will cost you everything, and you will never get across the bridge.
