We all know the
actor who achieves overnight fame after one starring role and everyone says how
lucky they must have been. Luck? They starred in every school production.
Studied at drama school for three years. Worked their socks off in some
dreadful soap. Slaved on the stage for the whole run of Mind Your Manners by Agatha Christie. Played an extra in Extras.

Getting wealthy
is a bit like that. You toil away for years and suddenly you are lucky. You
scrimp and save and sacrifice and gosh, how wonderful to be touched by fate’s
fickle finger!

“If you don’t bet, you don’t get. No, no, no. I
am not suggesting gambling in any sense. If you invest on the Stock Exchange,
after wisely taking advice and studying the companies and their performance,
this is the safest form of gambling”.
Well, the truth
is that you have to speculate to accumulate. You have to be in it to win it. If
you don’t bet, you don’t get. No, no, no. I am not suggesting gambling in any
sense. If you invest on the Stock Exchange, after wisely taking advice and
studying the companies and their performance, this is the safest form of
gambling. If you stake it all on red, this is high
risk gambling. If you work your socks off for 20 years and finally it pays off,
this is not gambling.

closely.

I know you
might’ have thought I mean you to speculate with your hard-earned cash. I
don’t. I mean you to speculate with your time and effort, forethought and
planning, energy and dedication. The more you put in, the more you’ll get out.
