There’s so much information out there today about becoming wealthy. There are books, articles, videos, Cd’s and tapes that will attempt to tell you how to become rich. Sorting through all these options is an enormous task, which we’ll talk about later. What all this information won’t tell you is the WHY of becoming wealthy. Many will give you reasons, but only you can find out for yourself why you want to be wealthy.So why do you want to be wealthy? I can tell you my reasons, but take them with a grain of salt. Most of your time should be spent figuring out why you personally want to be wealthy.
The ultimate goal of wealth for me correlates with what I call ‘time freedom’. Financial abundance is a means to other ends. I’m not pursuing money for the sake of money. Don’t get me wrong. I enjoy business and investing, but I’d like to be able to decide how much time to spend with my family, how much time I spend working or pursuing philanthropic interests.
