    No, it's your way of blaming others for being a failure instead of doing somthing about it.

      Well, read the following and decide for yourself: http://www.forbes.com/2010/03/11/born-to-be-a-billionaire-entrepreneurs-management-assessment.html[^] I am missing 3 things out of the 11.

      1. Do you care more about power than money? 2) Can you be ruthless and sleep well at night? Since I answer no to both, I'll never be a billionaire (as will nobody I personally know.)

        Everybody can BE a billionaire - it is quite easy really. Not everybody has what it takes to BECOME a billionaire. Sloppy grammar! My own observation is that wealth concentrates around those that manipulate wealth, not produce it. People that farm, build, or mine will never earn as much as currency traders, stock brokers, lawyers (legal brokers), or their own bosses. However, to become a billionaire, you have to own a large business. To get there, the skills mentioned in the article are necessary but not sufficient. By analogy: buying a lottery ticket is necessary to winning the lottery. It does not mean that you will win the lottery. Kudos to Rama for having 8 of the 11 skills. Now just do your best and don't worry about where it will lead.

          >No, it's your way of blaming others for >being a failure instead of doing somthing about it. What's your evidence that he is a "failure"? Do you have any evidence? I would hope a programmer has a better grasp of logic and reasoning skills. My neighbour is worth tens of millions of dollars and he got that wealth from scratch, by being smart and hard working, and he definitely believes the system is not to help you. He's also into "conspiracy" stuff.

              Three? That is not very many when you consider how many people read the forums.
