I read over two dozen financial advice books.

And after a decade of trial and error, I am proud to say that now that I'm nearing 40, I have discovered the secret to strong financial health is simple...

Find a high paying job and do that.

Have you considered having rich parents?

Or write financial advice books.

It's easy really. Most people just make the seemingly obvious mistake to buy losing tickets, but if you wanna be a winner, just join my WhatsApp group and learn how to become rich!

its sad that I remember something like this from years ago but it was about the guy inheriting some money and it was not from the onion and actually was a story.
