เผอิญเห็นพี่จากัวร์พูดถึงหนังสือเล่มนี้ ผมเลยไปหามาอ่าน ... แต่ว่าเสียดายเงิน และไม่มีเวลา
ตั้งแต่ผมรู้จัก The 80-20 rule ของ Pareto อะไรก็เลยง่ายขึ้น (นิสัยเสียมากขึ้นด้วย)
ว่าแล้วก็เลยหาทางเนต แล้วเอามาฝากกันครับ
ทั้งเล่ม 200 กว่าหน้า เหลืออยู่แค่นี้ เพราะถ้าให้ผมอ่านหมดเล่ม ก็จำได้แค่นี้เหมือนกัน = =
ใครขี้เกียจสุดๆ อ่านแต่สีฟ้าเลยครับ 555+
10 Roads to Riches
by Alexander Green, Chairman, Investment U
Investment Director, The Oxford Club
Here are Ken Fishers 10 roads to riches:
Start a successful business. This is the richest road. Prime examples are Bill Gates, Charles Schwab, Sam Walton, Larry Ellison and Michael Bloomberg. Of course, youre unlikely to do nearly as well as any of these men. But that isnt necessary. With enough time and effort, you can get plenty rich filling a need for a local product or service in your hometown. (That includes starting a plumbing business or putting braces on kids.)
Become CEO of an existing firm and juice it. This was the method for Jack Welch, Steve Balmer and others. This requires a lot of years of experience and generally a lot of loyalty to one company. But if you have the drive and ambition, the salary and option compensation can make it well worth your while.
Hitch your wagon to a star. This method involves tying your fortunes to a successful business visionary. Charlie Munger did with Warren Buffett, Jeffrey Skoll with Jerry Yang, and Peter Chernin with Rupert Murdoch. This is a tough one though. You have to recognize a visionary early, offer him something of value and stick with him. Not easily done.
Turn celebrity into wealth. We all know that celebrities are loaded. But unless youre a world-class athlete, a terrific singer/songwriter or have Lana Turners profile, you should probably give this one a pass.
Marry well really, really well. This seems shallow, I know, but a 2007 Wall Street Journal poll found that two-thirds of women said theyd be very or extremely willing to marry for money. Half of men surveyed said theyd marry for money, too. Whod have thought? (Also, expect a prenup.)
Steal it, legally. Some people think plaintiffs lawyers are crusading saviors. Fisher sees them as bloodsucking leeches and extortion artists. (He quotes the age-old Mexican curse: May your life be full of lawyers.) But if you can handle law school and pass the bar, this method is a possibility.
Use other peoples money. This is the most common road for the ultra-wealthy. Managing other peoples money is how bankers, brokers, insurance companies, mutual fund managers, hedge fund managers and personal money managers like Ken Fisher make their millions. (Whether their clients are getting what they pay for is another story entirely, one I cover in my new book The Gone Fishin Portfolio.)
Invent an endless future revenue stream. In this scenario, you create something a book, a movie, a Broadway play and find a way for it to create long-term royalties. This, admittedly, is a long shot. If youre going to try this path, says Fisher, Think lunch boxes. Products that end up on lunch boxes Spiderman, Star Wars, etc. are the really big moneymakers.
Monetize unrealized real estate wealth. Millions of Americans have gotten rich in real estate. And many will in the future. But Fisher says skip the idea of flipping houses and condos the transaction costs alone will kill you and concentrate on good properties in desirable areas with predictable cash flows.
Take the Road More Traveled. This is the method we focus on here at Investment U. Its about maximizing your income, controlling your outgo, religiously saving the difference and then managing your investment portfolio intelligently.
