Cash---not class---is the key to millions.
Who wants to be a millionaire? No need to think twice; all of us
do. In one way or another, we dream of becoming rich to have a
comfortable life. We think that becoming so would end all of our
problems and we would finally live a happy and fulfilling life.
This is the very reason why, if not solely, most of us venture
into businesses of all sorts.
But wanting and dreaming of economic freedom is a whole lot
different from acting upon it. Those who “want” to be a
millionaire recognize the desire of becoming one. The “dreamers”
are visualizing the effect of becoming rich. A person who has
both these agenda and works on a goal-oriented plan is the one
doing something to actually become a millionaire.
Fence sitters have no room in this game. Putting all hopes and
dreams on lottery or sweepstakes won’t be recommended either.
Putting bets in the bank instead could sum up in serious cash in
years.
How we earn and spend our money tell a great deal about our self
and our values – on what we consider to be important. Having a
strong and clear stand about our selves and our values would
ease our quest for the “gold” and a fulfilling life.
Money, being amoral, is neither good nor bad. But oftentimes, we
blame the lack of it or its insufficiency to cover up our
inadequacies to cope with life’s challenges.

No one wants to be rich but alone and unhappy at the same time.
But many who have found material treasures also ended up with
feelings of emptiness inside. Who needs to be rich if losing a
“rich” life is the cost?
Frustrations, stress, broken relationships, solo parenting and
envy are just some of the blissful rut we believe would vanish
“only if we have more money.”
There is nothing wrong in wanting more of this life’s pies. But
don’t be fooled into believing that having more means less of
life’s sour spices. Becoming rich, from where you are right now,
guarantees only one thing: asking for more.
It’s a vicious cycle. We keep the drive to earn more, neglect
our purpose in life, fail to deal with problems, become unhappy
and want more and more money!
Pastor H.J. Sala of the International Christian Ministry
Guidelines says that financial problems are oftentimes just the
tip of the iceberg; beneath the surface usually lies the
complete iceberg of unbecoming.
