How do you become rich without becoming an entrepreneur?

 

It can actually be easier as an employee.

Entrepreneurship is hard.

The key as an employee is to start investing early and often.

  • Decide how much you plan to invest.
  • The higher percentage of your salary you invest the sooner you’ll get there.
  • Decide on your investment vehicle.
  • I use S&P 500 index funds. They’re very low cost (important) and buy all the stocks in the S&P.
  • Have your employer automatically put the percentage you decide directly into your investment account?
  • This automates your investment.
  • If your company offers a 401k and match, put enough into your 401k to get the full match.
  • Keep doing this until you are wealthy.
  • No financial advisor is needed. Better if you don’t have one.
