The #1 Best Business to Get Into if You Want to Get Rich
Copyright 2006 Tony Mase
Baffled by the bewildering array of money making opportunities
they find in their inboxes and mailboxes, hear from others and
on the radio, read in books, ebooks, magazines and newspapers,
and see on the Internet and television, I receive questions
almost everyday from good, honest, hard working people who are
sincerely looking to do better financially...
Questions like...
Can you really make money in real estate? How about stocks...
should I start trading stocks? Should I buy a franchise? Should
I get involved in sales? Should I open a business with a
physical location? Should I start an online business? What about
these multi-level or network marketing deals... can you really
make any money in them? What about this business opportunity or
that one?
The list of questions I receive like these is practically
endless.
However...
They all have one thing in common.
Regardless of how it's phrased, the single, most important,
underlying question all of these folks are asking me is...
What's the #1 best business to get into if I want to get rich?
That's their real question, isn't it?
Well...
Here's the deal...
You can get rich in any business.
Let me say that again...
YOU can get rich in *any* business!
Think about it...
Bill Gates got rich creating and selling software. Donald Trump
got rich buying and developing real estate. J. K. Rowling got
rich writing books. Jeff Bezos got rich selling books. Michael
Dell got rich building and selling computers. Warren Buffet got
rich buying and selling stocks. Wayne Huizenga got rich hauling
trash.
Bill Gates, Donald Trump, J. K. Rowling, Jeff Bezos, Michael
Dell, Warren Buffet and Wayne Huizenga each got rich in a
completely *different* business, didn't they?
Take a look around you...
There are people right in your own community, right now, right
this very moment, who are getting rich in every conceivable
business, aren't there?
So...
Since a little thought and observation easily proves you can get
rich in any business, the question then turns to one of...
What's the #1 best business for *you* to get into if you want to
get rich?
As a general rule, you'll get rich most easily in a business
that uses your strongest abilities, skills or talents whether
inborn or developed.
In other words...
You'll get rich most easily in a business that uses the natural
or developed abilities, skills or talents you *already* possess.
For example...
If you have strong mechanical ability, you'll get rich most
easily in a business that makes use of your mechanical ability.
If you have strong writing skill, you'll get rich most easily in
a business that makes use of your writing skill. If you have
strong musical talent, you'll get rich most easily in a business
that makes use of your musical talent.
However...
Nowhere is it written that you're limited only to a business
that uses your strongest abilities, skills or talents.
Why?
Because there isn't an ability, skill or talent that's ever been
demonstrated by anyone, anywhere, anytime that you weren't born
with at least the basics of and that you can't develop if you
want to.
Do you think Bill Gates was born knowing how to code software?
I doubt it.
What about Donald Trump? Do you think he was born with the
skills necessary to build a highly successful, multi-billion
dollar real estate empire?
Of course not.
Although each of them may have been born with some natural
inclinations conducive to their respective businesses, both of
them developed the necessary abilities, skills or talents
necessary to get rich in their chosen businesses... and so can
you!
Question...
Since you can get rich in any business, since you can develop
the necessary abilities, skills or talents to get rich in any
business and since, chances are, you're going to be doing
something to earn money anyway...
Why not do something you like doing?
In his book, "The Science of Getting Rich", Wallace D. Wattles
writes:
"...you will do best in a business which you like..."
There you have it...
Plain and simple...
The #1 best business to get into if you want to get rich...
A business which you like!
If it uses your strongest abilities, skills or talents, all the
better. If it doesn't, no big deal, you can develop them as you
go along.
One of the biggest mistakes I see people making, and I see it
all the time, is they decide they want to do better financially,
they decide they want to get rich, then they start looking for
ways to make money without any regard whatsoever to what they
like to do or, just as important, what they *don't* like to do.
In other words, regardless of how they justify it, they look for
a business to get into based purely on the money they think they
can make.
Big mistake!
>From my own personal experience I can tell you this...
Whenever I've done anything purely for the money, which is
exactly what I did the majority of my life, not only was I
absolutely miserable in the process but every single time,
without exception, I ultimately ended up falling flat on my
face... big time!
So...
If you want to get rich...
Here's my advice...
Rather than chase after every new "money making opportunity"
that comes down the pike, figure out what it is you like to do
and then *think* of a way or ways to get rich doing that.
