Luck and Wealth Management

Luck and Wealth Management

In my in depth study of wealthy people so far, I have not read or heard anyone of them say that luck or instant breakthrough was their secret to wealth and success. 

Although LUCK can give you money instantly, it can not teach you discipline, character and knowledge that will help you grow and sustain the money.

Over the past few days on Wisdom Nuggets For Today, we have been learning  lessons  from the lives of those who became rich over night by LUCK. here is another case study. 

Luke Pittard won £1.3m on the National Lottery.
After the novelty had worn off and the obligatory lavish holiday, wedding and new home were done and dusted, he got bored and returned to work at McDonalds. 

Janite Lee won $18 million in 1993. Her generosity in giving money to a variety of political, educational and community causes was commendable - but just 8 years later she filed for bankruptcy. 

Mark Gardiner from London won £11m in 1995 - 13 miserable years later, although he still had some money left, he had lost all his friends - even the ones he treated to new £100,000 homes - and he completely lost touch with his family. 

"A man with money and nobody is a miserable man"

Money should not be all that you aspire to have. Although LUCK can give you instant and momentary recognition, it cannot help you learn the skills of growing and sustaining wealth and great relationships over time.

True sir! Too many find out a little too late that what they were chasing after was not all that really mattered.
