World’s richest woman Gina Rinehart is enduring a media firestorm over an article in which she takes the “jealous” middle class to task for “drinking, or smoking and socializing” rather than working to earn their own fortune.

 

What if she has a point?

Steve Siebold, author of “How Rich People Think,” spent nearly three decades interviewing millionaires around the world to find out what separates them from everyone else.

It had little to do with money itself, he told Business Insider. It was about their mentality.

“[The middle class] tells people to be happy with what they have,” he said. “And on the whole, most people are steeped in fear when it comes to money.”
 

Average people think MONEY is the root of all evil. Rich people believe POVERTY is the root of all evil.

“The average person has been brainwashed to believe rich people are lucky or dishonest,” Siebold writes.

 

That’s why there’s a certain shame that comes along with “getting rich” in lower-income communities.

“The world class knows that while having money doesn’t guarantee happiness, it does make your life easier and more enjoyable.”

From Steve Siebold, author of “How Rich People Think.

Average people think selfishness is a vice. Rich people think selfishness is a virtue.

“The rich go out there and try to make themselves happy. They don’t try to pretend to save the world,” Siebold told Business Insider.

 

The problem is that middle class people see that as a negative––and it’s keeping them poor, he writes.

“If you’re not taking care of you, you’re not in a position to help anyone else. You can’t give what you don’t have.”

From Steve Siebold, author of “How Rich People Think.

      Take away the favored ability for rich people (and their offspring) to borrow made-up money from the debt-based fiat fractional reserve banking system, and much of their wealth wouldn’t be possible.

      People that take risks that pay off, or people that work especially hard should enjoy the fruits of their labor or expertise. The people that are the beneficiaries of a banking system that continually dilutes other peoples’ wealth to ‘loan’ it to someone else deserve no admiration whatsoever….

      “To get rich, you need to make a business or become extremely high in a business and/or hold stocks. Still, this doesn’t mean you’ll be rich. A lot of it is luck that you made the right choices.If you need some pointers on getting rich, check this out https://www.theolive.com/money/how-to-get-rich/
