Clearly stated on this site is that millions, billions, are suffering. And the message seems to be nothing short of "get rich quick" and buy expensive things that enhance your personal image. Can't help but feel that one trip to 4 out of the 7 continents would be quite a perspective change.
Speero said...There's no message here of "get rich quick", the message is that anyone in this country can be successful and gain the things that they desire.
As far as other countries suffering - that is a part of me personally that is torn between two worlds.
I understand that despite as much work that I've put in, there are, in fact, people in the world that could work a million times harder than me and still never achieve the things that I've achieved in such a short time period.
The fact is, once a certain level of success is reached, it is time to give back. I'm 20 years old and me and several of my friends are making more money than we EVER though possible through our business. We NEVER had the absolute GOAL of becoming unfathomably rich through what we do, but it is happening.
I'm not at the point yet where I'm ready to give back to those in DIRE need. I'm putting my brother through private school, myself through school, and paying all the bills and expenses required to live, plus whatever else I desire myself.
I enjoy rewarding myself, and I thoroughly believe that everyone has different desires in life.
What one has to understand, is that me and some of the people I've worked with in the past and present, have literally come from nothing to something.
Someone on the outside looking in might see the bling and the cars and the money and think that THAT is my sole satisfaction - and they're wrong. I'm still young and whole hearted, I make money but I don't let the money make me - I can't even put into words what the feeling is like when I have MADE someone else successful.
I've seen the worst of both worlds in the U.S., and by no means do I not understand that over seas the ghettos are FAR worse, but how can I focus on other countries when people around me are suffering? I've got to make sure the ones I love are ok first, and that includes EVERYONE that becomes involved with what Kid Millionaire Club does.

we all deserve to live a life of abundance. its just up to people how much they really want it. There is no reason why people should hate on other people cuz they have more things or nicer things than them. Instead of hating, find a way to get out of that current situation and GET the things that you want in life.
Hating cost way too much money than actually making money. ITS A WASTE OF TIME. "You can either make excuses or make money, but you can never do both."
Rock on Daniel, you're blogs are awesome man.
