Wealth Mantras # 2 Rich people play the money game to win, Poor people play the money game to not lose.






Poor people play the money game on defense rather than offense. Their primary concern is survival and security instead of creating wealth and abundance.

So, what is your goal? What is your objective? What is your true intention?


The goal of truly rich people is to have massive wealth & abundance. Not just some money, but lots of money. So what is the goal of poor people? To “Have enough to play the bills….? & on time would be a miracle..!”


Middle class people at least go a step further… too bad it’s a tiny step. Their big goal in life also happens to be their favorite word in the whole wide world. They just want to be “comfortable”. I hate to break the news to you, but there’s a huge difference between being comfortable and being rich.


Comfortable is nice. At least you go out to decent restaurant for a change. But pretty much all you could order was chicken. Now, there’s nothing wrong with chicken, if that’s what you really want. But often it’s not. 


In fact, people who are only financially comfortable usually decide on what to eat by looking at the right-hand side of the menu- the price side. “What would you like for dinner tonight, dear?’ “I’ll have this Rs. 250/- dish. Let’s see what it is. Surprise, surprise, it’s the chicken, “for the 3rd time this month!


When you’re comfortable, you don’t allow your eyes to look at the bottom of the menu, for if you did, you might come cross the most forbidden words in the middle-class dictionary: market price! And even if you were curious, you’d never ask what the price actually is. First, because you know you can’t afford it. Second, it’s downright embarrassing when you know the waiter doesn’t believe you when he tells you the dish is Rs.750/- with side dishes extra and you say, “You know what, for some reason, I have a real craving for chicken tonight!”

I have to say that for me personally, one of the best things about being rich is not having to look at the price on the menu anymore. I eat exactly what I want to eat regarding of the price. I can assure you, I didn’t do that when I was broke or comfortable.


It boils down to this: If your goal is to be comfortable, chances are you’ll never get rich. But if you goal is to be rich, chances are you’ll end up mighty comfortable.



Good luck and stay connected for my next blog on wealth file.
