I'm starting to realize that to get rich, one needs to hang out with rich people but I'm not sure where to meet them. The only places I can think of are Silicon Valley and New York (no I don't know where in New York they are).

Why have rich friends?

If they didn't make the money themselves, they at least know people who did can learn from them
They're the ideal customer because they can pay more for the same product

If they tell you they're rich they're not rich. If they flash their money around? their first generation rich and will soon be poor. I was a personal banker for years, the richest people I came in contact with looked like hobos and lived about that way too. That's why they were Rich, they didn't spend a dime. I was talking to my friend a while back, he was telling me about his life. 100 Grand in the bank a brand new BMW sports car a 775,000 home he just purchased and he was sending his girlfriend to France, for a shopping spree. When she got back, they were going to spend a week in Hawaii. I had $20 to my name and was lamenting the fact of how poor I was. Then I asked. How much do you owe in debt? Answer? 1.5 million dollars. I was 100% debt-free all bills paid with $20 in my pocket. Who had more money?. Best part, I didn't have a boiling ulcer, thinking about owing 1.5 million dollars. Remember, when people tell you they're rich, they don't tell you how much they owe.
