The Rich Really Are Different Than Average

[drcha]

I would rather hire a refugee who wants the job and appreciates having it, versus some of the stupid, unambitious 20-year-olds I meet. I have frequently dealt with young adults who have the interpersonal skills and intelligence of a hermit crab.

So, according to the article, they're less empathic in the aggregate
Is that a worthy attribute to cultivate?

...You won't become rich by being and acting like Mother Teresa; you have to think more like a Hawk in your worldly views.

You just described me when I was in my 20's...and kind of now, to some extent

It's kind of hard to sound like a sophisticated, well-spoken individual when you're staring at charts all day alone listening to the same song on repeat...all while being a nervous wreck.

The character of Kramer...in the TV show Seinfeld...kind of comes to mind. of how I am.

This is why residential real estate investing is very difficult for me. I just couldn't make poor folks pay me. I would listen to their excuses and feel very bad about their situations. And if anything want to help them.

Very unlike my slum lord grandfather who taught me the business. He would use all means needed to collect including intimidation and physical threats from this guy he called the monkey.

Ino matter how much my grand dad tried to make me a bad ass as a child. Im an empathatic wuss and could never run his business. No matter how hard I would try to "get the rent", i didn't like it and felt terrible.

He had no empathy and became wealthy due to this-- like the article states.

Im thinking it is due to him being born into dire poverty and me being middle class with very kind parents from birth??

Good points, over all, but there are many billionaires who dont deal with or are not good with people


Jim Simons is one who doesn't need to deal with people, steve jobs was terrible with people, etc etc.

Are you the same person that called himself "surf", or am I mixing you up with another?
Thank You.

I have a question for you.

Tell me why I should buy your book and I will consider it. Can you list the main points that I will see when I review the outline, and how taking note of these points will allow me better myself as a trader.

Thank You.

And you sold copies of copies of the PTJ video for $500 a pop.

Just saying.

$500? Try $2500 for one of them. Lol.

Sure, no problem. You don't see the difference??
