Heck yeah, if I had enough $$ from daily grind and then could just make money on side with something I love... that's enough fer me.

My real plan to make it rich? World Rally Championship codriver 😛
 
Becoming a decent engineer and not living the crazy american credit balance debt life most americans live, be reasonable save money and buy and rent out appartments/things of that sort.

I'm seriously considering going into the porno business. Your bound to make money, and the industry is never going to fail or have problems with crooked CFO's

People are always going to want porn. Mom may not like it... but hey, it beats sitting at this computer all day until I'm 55-60.

The only problem with the porn business is you don't have any say in who you're having sex with in movies. If they want you to have sex with old women or shemales you have to do it because it probably says you have to in the contract. Now if you get lucky they'll just have you screwing hot chicks.

You guys do realize that in this state alone (CA) there are approximately 3 women who want to be porn stars and 16,202,394 men who want to be porn stars. It just doesn't work to well.
 
I'm on the verge of making Law Review (top 10%) of my law school class here in manhattan, which will all but guarantee a $125k my first year out of school (in 2 years). I plan to go into Real Estate law, however will do siginificant pro bono work for the underprivileged.
I don't plan to be rich, but comfortable enough so my wife and kids never need worry about money.
 
1. Get rid of unecessary and non-taxdeductable debts
2. A solid long term investment strategy
3. A VERY solid income by the wifey to pay bills and save up expendable and liquidable cash
4. My income will be directly re-invested into rental properties and various other real-estate methods
5. After 15 years or so, mortgages on rental properties will be paid off and income on rental properties will be pure income(minus upkeep)
6. Live off of rental income
7. Reap the millions that have invested in long term retirement plans via 401k's, IRA's, and various other retirement plans offered by wifey's employers.

 
Buy vending machines....place in strategic location....make lots of money.
Run adult website....affiliate with other sites....and/or make galleries.....make lots of money.

Both make money, but not many people do them because they aren't "real jobs.". It shows that getting rich is fairly easy, but most people would rather get reputable jobs instead. Society places more emphasis on where you work, not always how much you make.














 
I think I'll sue a major corporation for my stupidity. Hey, worked for a lot of other people, why not me?
 
I'm just going to marry a rich orphan, this takes care of two things:
1) Don't have to worry about money
2) No In-laws
😀
 
I'm going to keep spending money on my education and hopefully graduate with my Masters in Business Information Systems in 2005 (B.S. in Business Management, Minor in either Marketing or Network Engineering). After that, I will be Cisco certified (and maybe MCSE) and hope to become a system/network admin. I'm going to do this for 10 years or less and get my own computer business (computer manufacturing, IT consulting, web design, hosting) off the ground and be a private pilot on the side, maybe for NetJets.

My realistic material goals are just a townhouse and an Audi S4 right now before 2007. 🙂

Solid, dude.

I never thought I would one day think about living off that mother of my kids who never worked in 15 years, but it's like stand back and get out of her way she's movin' on up.

 
Lawsuit.....

I don't know what I'll do with that money. Maybe use it all to put out a nursing home PSA or something.

Other than that, I just want to be a network admin or a physicist.

Big money either way, right? 😉
 
i will deploy the martha stewart foresight technology

my back up plan is to get a real dark tan and hang out in inglewood.



what are are we doing tomorrow night? -pinky
the same thing we do every night, try to takeover the world! -brain
 
So here is the plan.

1) Go to another country. (And leave the circus behind)

2) Get married. I will be a citizen after one year. I am not sure if the card will be green maybe that is just America.

3) Have a baby. This baby is born a citizen in my new country the father is a citizen.

4) No in-law problems because I don't use and abuse people and will not allow them to use and abuse me.


Now I can set up an internet business without paying terrible taxation, and raise my child in a decent less racist, less hypocritical country. (less because I am sure that bad things exist everywhere)

This is worth all the money in the world to me.
 
I should get about 100-200 thousand when my grandparents on my dad's side die, so I will do some heavy duty investing. really though I just want to live comfortably and not paycheck-to-paycheck. don't care much about being filthy rich.

I plan to buy homes in a college town and rent them out. if i start in the next few years i can hopefully get close to 10 homes nearly paid off by the time im 45, then i can retire or do whatever i want making 15k-20k a month.

eeek...my parents have 5 houses around a college campus and they cause 95% of their stress.

Imagine being woke up at 3am because one of the people renting a house thought it would be fun to light a couch (on the PORCH!!) on fire during a party. Sure you can keep the secutiry deposit but what can you really sue college kids for?

College kids trash houses and have NO RESPECT for property.

Inheritance, hopefully. It was looking like my father and stepmother were gonna blow it all during retirement but they divorced a couple months back and it doesnt look like my father will remarry. If I'm lucky me and my brother will split a couple million. 😀

You are lucky 🙂
