This is not how to get rich. The rich hang out with the rich because

  1. They live in the same area and attend the same events because they can afford to. If you’re poor you’re not going to meet them at the country club swimming pool or the expensive private school fundraiser because you can’t afford to be there.

  2. They know each other from business. As you get wealthier your list of contacts will grow. You’ll know tons of lawyers, CEOs, investors, bankers, and financial executives just from business dealings. These people are all rich and you’ll be talking to them frequently and therefore more likely to be friends.

  3. Other rich people don’t want stuff from them. The more wealthy you get the more people want stuff from you. It can get very lonely because you don’t truly have friends. You just have people that want to be around you to try to get something from you. Friends who are also very rich don’t need or want your money. This would probably be a very refreshing experience. It’s also the #1 reason your plan won’t work. Rich people will sniff you out. You’re not the first guy that has tried to befriend them to get something from them. They will spot it within the first few sentences to leave your mouth if that is your intention.

  4. Business deals are mutual beneficial. If you bring nothing to the table they won’t be interested.

  5. Friends have things in common. Rich people have a lot more things in common with other rich people than with poorer people. Therefore they are more likely to have closer relationships with those that they can relate to i.e. other rich people.

Getting rich comes from being born into it, building a business or being an executive in one, or having a highly advanced career like a doctor. There are no other ways to get rich.
