Just keep some of what you earn

I have written about exactly this issue myself here. I keep being astounded that this keeps happening, and when I read the page shown below I yelled "I know! It's incredible!" to the empty room and my wondering neighbors who probably think I'm a little nuts anyway.


The book is The Five Lessons (a Millionaire Taught Me (about life and wealth) by Richard Evans. My friend Angelo recommended it, and it's a short and easy book to read.
The lessons are simple. But if people knew them and followed them, this would be a very different world indeed.
