    how to become millionaire

    Hi guys,

    What is the quickest way/ways for a 29 years old Senior DBA/Contractor to become a millionaire or multi millionaire?

    Should he take pay cut and go for management position such as IT Manager etc? ( in another word working toward MBA and CEO?

    Thanks!

    Get yourself on a £500 daily rate (to start and then move up), be flexible with location, watch out for new technology and skill up - save around 25% no matter what happens. If you can't afford it, don't buy it!

    Don't get into debt - except a mortgage.

    Steer clear of women who spend spend spend.

    No flash cars.

    Let some one else buy a round once in a while.

    Then at 55 you should be set up.

      All you need is time. Let the governments policy of inflation do the rest. Soon we will all be millionaires.
      How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

          If you put £25 a month into a tracker fund until your child's twenty-first, and the historical return had been achieved, it would then be worth about £24,064. If you hand the fund over and it continues to accrue compound interest, then by the time they reach 60, a total outlay of £6,300 would be worth around £1.4m. However, if you invest £100 a month from age 21 to 60, you’d only end up with half this amount, despite having invested considerably more.

            Get a job as a banker, drug dealer, whore, or other role where morals come second to fleecing everyone you can for as much as you can. Oh, add agents to that list.

            Alternatively, save every penny you can, have a miserable existence doing it, and see it get taken off you to fund your health care when you retire.

            Easiest way to achieving a millionaire lifestyle is to move where the cost of living is cheap enough that you don't need millions in the first place!

              Marry DimPrawn from this forum. I know it sounds fishy but he is a local fantasy millionaire on here.

              P.S. You'll have to live in Swindow but apparently in a mansion.

                Start wearing high heels and suspenders to work. When the bullying gets too much, sue them.

                  Nobody gets rich through work. That's not the way it works. Try becoming a usurer or rentier.
