The 7 Characteristics of Rich People
The 7 Characteristics of Rich People [rich people money]
Have you ever wondered why rich people seem to get richer easily while those in the poverty cycle seem destined to be stuck there forever? The reason is simple. You need to think and act like a rich person first before you can really be rich. Let's take a look at some of the characteristics of rich people.
1. No limited self belief
Rich people believe they are destined to be rich and there is nothing that can stop them from achieving that financial freedom goal. They will do whatever necessary to reach their goals including doing things that they dislike or taking on tasks that seem impossible to complete.
2. Recognize the importance of time
Rich people also recognize that time is their most important asset and a very scarce resource. They do not waste their precious time sitting in front of a TV watching soap operas or other entertainment programs like "Survivors." They also know how to use the power of leverage to achieve maximum results with minimum efforts. [rich people money]
3. Seek out other people of higher social status
Many poor people only network with other people that are of the same status as them. They do not actively seek out other people who are wealthier. The rich people will do the opposite. They want to network and learn from others who are better and wealthier.
4. Expense as investment
To many poor people, the best way to manage money is to use less of it. However, rich people have a different viewpoint. To them, many expenses can be viewed as investments. By spending a certain amount of their money to acquire an asset or skill, they know they will get back what they spent in the future.
5. Strong self-confidence
Many rich people exhibit a high level of self-confidence that is often contagious. They are optimists and maintain a positive outlook at all times. Their confidence is not easily shaken by external factors.
6. Good money habits
While saving is a good virtue and habit, many rich people feel that it is not the best way to grow your money. Rich people will put a significant portion of their wealth in some kind of investment vehicles that give them a better ROI than a normal saving account. They also do not spend their money aimlessly buying things that have no real value such as lottery tickets.
7. Philanthropy
Many rich people are also great philanthropists. They frequently make charitable donations intended to increase human well being. A great example is Bill Gates who set up his own charitable foundation aimed at providing lifesaving health care products for the poorest part of the world. [rich people money]
Most rich people did not become wealthy overnight. They faced many setbacks and challenges to get to where they are today. To them, setbacks and challenges provide valuable lessons that help them find the way to great wealth as well as strengthen their ability to faced adversities in life.

Does God Want Us to be Rich?
Does God Want Us to be Rich? [rich get money]
Does God want us to be rich? Does being wealthy prevent us from going to Heaven?
In Matthew 19:24, Jesus states, "And again I say unto you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God". This is repeated in Mark 10:25.
Luke 16:19-31 tells the story of Lazarus and the rich man. Lazarus, the beggar died and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom, while the rich man ended in torment.
On the surface, this seems to indicate that God does not look favorably on the wealthy. But how do we know where the line is drawn between securing our future and becoming rich? [rich get money]
We must remember that there are several rich, yet righteous men throughout the Bible.
Job was a rich man, blessed by God in many ways until Satan was allowed to test him.
Satan took everything he had and killed his children, yet Job remained righteous.
Once again, God allowed Satan to test Job by covering him with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown.
All that Job had was gone, except his wife, who promptly urged Job to "curse God and die". How is that for support? Obviously Satan left her behind for a reason.
Yet, in the end, Job remained righteous and loyal to God. He also showed great compassion by praying for his three friends, Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, who had not spoken of God the thing that is right (Job 42:8).
God rewarded Job by blessing him with twice as much as he had before. He was blessed with seven sons and three daughters and lived another 140 years. [rich get money]
So what does all this mean? Does God want us to be rich? When Jesus spoke of the camel going through the eye of a needle, was he suddenly changing the rules?
Not at all. Jesus knew that money meant power and that power corrupts even good people.
Bill Gates is one of the wealthiest, if not the wealthiest person in the world. Yet he regularly gives millions of dollars to worthy causes every year. This doesn't mean he is going to Heaven, but it is a step in the right direction.
But for every Bill Gates in the world, there are many Scrooges, who never think twice of cheating the poor to pad their own bank accounts.
It is not wealth that condemns a person, it is what they do with it.
If you are one of the lucky people who have wealth, consider this. Do you own your wealth or does it own you?

Smoothie operators
Kyle and Aaron Campos, 27 and 33
Buckeye, Ariz.
Lesson: If you must borrow from your friends and family, keep it formal
The downside of mixing business with blood should be obvious - or at least it will be when you start getting late-night calls from Aunt Tillie asking about your schedule for an IPO. But hitting up relatives is how a lot of businesses get going. It's what Kyle Campos and his older brother Aaron had to do.
In 2004 the brothers, both software engineers, quit their jobs in Santa Barbara and decamped to Buckeye, Ariz. After visiting relatives there earlier that year, Kyle had become convinced that the town was "filled with wide-open opportunities," especially compared with the software biz. "The tech sector was getting hit hard," says Aaron. "I didn't have a good feeling."
Aaron and Kyle, neither of whom had run a business before, began brainstorming about starting one together. Both had frequented a smoothie joint in Santa Barbara, and they fell in love with the idea of starting their own. They found an industry consultant online who helped them write a business plan. Then they hired an experienced designer. The Main Squeeze would be a 1,200-square-foot store with hardwood floors and stainless-steel tables. And it would cost more than the $130,000 they had saved.
That's when they drew up a list of 40 friends and relatives they could solicit as investors. "We wanted it to seem like we were offering them an authentic business opportunity," notes Kyle. For that they turned to CircleLending, a site that helps informal borrowers create formal lending deals. The siblings spent $99 to set up a loan agreement, choosing an attractive interest rate (9%), a repayment schedule they figured they could afford (either five or seven years) and a $1,000 minimum. Four folks each lent them $1,000, and another four each threw in $5,000. Last year the Campos brothers whipped up a profitable $210,000 in sales, and they've been paying their investors on schedule for close to two years. Says Kyle: "Not one has complained."
