Why I want to become rich (chriseidhof.tumblr.com)

I'm doing very much the same thing as yourself. Living out of a suitcase, that is. In my office. I want wealth to give me options. Changing the world isn't hard when you have... reach. I'll use my reach to employ people. Lots of people, I hope.

Oh, and a million won't be enough. With inflation and all, I'm focusing on a multi-billion dollar empire before I hit 30. That's more than one decade. It's been done.


Do you have a roadmap to reach your first million? It's only 32 months so you have to earn 31k per month on average. Or are you just hoping for a (lucky?) hit?


Not in detail. But it's a very good idea to make one, I completely agree. I do have some ideas about how to get there. I'll write another post on that later!


This is more important than you know. If you don't believe you can do at least 31K per month at some point very soon, you probably won't be going anywhere!


Awesome! Same dreams and hopes but my problem is that I'm exactly 30y. old :) I'm working on my way up, 32 is my goal.


Nice! Age doesn't really matter imo. For proper goal setting, you need a quantifiable goal and a timeline, that's why I chose 30. Good luck!


Live the dream! Be pervert with your dreams and make love with your wishes! I'm sharing similar point as you Chris. Wishing you the best fucking luck you can imagine for yourself!
