A young man asked an old rich man how he made his money. The old guy fingered his worsted wool vest and said, "Well, son, it was 1932. The depth of the Great Depression. I was down to my last nickel. I invested that nickel in an apple. I spent the entire day polishing the apple and, at the end of the day, I sold the apple for ten cents. The next morning, I invested those ten cents in two apples. I spent the entire day polishing them and sold them at 5 pm for 20 cents. I continued this system for a month, by the end of which I'd accumulated a fortune of $1.37. Then my wife's father died and left us two million dollars."

The best way to become rich is to start a business and work hard to make it succeed. You may also invest your money in a good solid stocks (do not invest in just one stock). Remember you are in this for the long haul, hold on to your stocks. Don't think that you will win by being a day trader.

1) Get a good job
2) Save
3) Invest WISELY. Don't buy individual stocks (don't put all your eggs in one basket), mutual funds are the way to go in a good economy. And don't fall for those penny stocks (anything below a $1); they are not as good a bargain as the $.50 candy bar at the store.

Put it in an investment return account of about 10% for 20 years. You'll be a millionaire. DON'T TOUCH IT!
