I had a client say to me once "If you're so smart, then why aren't you rich?"
how about: "i'm smart enough that i know not to waste my allotted time on this planet amassing riches." i know plenty of rich people, many of whom earned their wealth. i envy the financial security but little else of that their wealth has done to their lives. time is really what i want more of. some wealthy trust fund types have wealth and time but they have other problems i'm glad i don't.
I know this is a little old, but I've been busy and I wanted to chime in on this :) Wealth is many things to many people... Me personally... I'm poor with money, but rich with spirit and other blessings... I have a loving wife, and two boys that think I'm the king of the world and I could do anything. I'd like to cover my bills a little better, and put something away for retirement and there college funds... but that's all I need :)
