Why hard work never made anyone rich

of all the rich people i have ever met ...very few have worked hard til their eyes bled. More often than not; many have had opportunity knock on their door and have ran with it, being ready to take the bull by the horns at the right time seems to have been a good remedy for success obviously READY being a main ingredient..so in essence its a mixture of many things with hard work not being even close to the top. I am not saying that hard work cant bring you vast amounts of wealth all that i am saying is from the people i have met that are rich from personal experience hard work has not been their forte'...its being ready when the time comes...peace

absolutely correct...

I will take opportunity over hard work any day..
 
And how do we attract opportunity? do you guys still think it is luck or chance? read Napoleon Hills think and grow rich and find the common thread among men like Henry Ford and Thomas Edison... they attracted "opportunity" through MENTAL MUSCLE... they envisioned their dream as if it was already a physical reality and they believed with every fibre of their being they had already achieved it... that's the secret of ALL SUCCESS

Some have gotten rich by working hard, most have not.

Best to get rich by having 10,000 other saps working HARD for YOU.

Very true.

10,000 workers or even 10 workers can accomplish a whole lot more than 1 man by himself.
 
So what are your answers toward this "injustice". As you would put it?
Abandon capitalistic ways? Turn to communism/socialism?

Do you have any ideas????:confused:

Because I do not, even if I did. I would not want to change a thing that is in America right now.

Having a government that is there for most of Americans and not for the top 10% + the corporations, would be a start. Having corporations pay their fair way of taxes would also help, you know the way it is done in Scandinavian countries for example. The list go on.....
