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

All of my rich friends I made at the Seattle Athletic Club when I worked somewhere that paid for a membership. I was young and in good shape and tall and would get randomly selected for pick up basketball games, which is how I made friends. If you dunk on a multi-millionaires personal nemesis, good chance he'll buy you a beer after and spend half the time laughing about the look on Greg's face when my balls where by his face.

I've managed to keep my rich friends in part by not asking them for money / investments / etc. They love give free advice just spit balling though.
