Here here. I couldn't agree with you more.

Personally, I've had many opportunities to get into a great money making opportunity, but I didn't choose those routes because of my opinion on making money.

There are those who want to make money really bad, and those who let the money come to them. For example, lets compare a sales person to a doctor. The salesman may have to persuade his/her clients on a daily basis to make ends meet or reach his or her dream goal. However, the doctor, who has gone through tremendous study, sits back and answers questions while people pay him for his time.

MONEY <---------------------------------------- SALESMAN

MONEY -------Goes this way --------> DOCTOR


Anyone see what I'm saying? In the end, the victor, in my opinion, is the doctor (or anyone with a wealth of knowledge). Though, it's probably just all based on how you look at it. I'd rather hit the books than scurry towards the pot of gold.
