Wealth Creation: A Fool's Game Most Will Lose
The odds of becoming truly rich are staggeringly slim-only about 0.000016 percent of Britain's population qualifies as "rich" by Felix Dennis's definition. Even with adjusted odds, your chances remain devastatingly thin. Yet here's the fascinating paradox: your background doesn't matter in the slightest. Money is "colour-blind, race-blind, sex-blind, degree-blind" and completely indifferent to your upbringing or circumstances. The young and penniless actually hold the greatest advantage-they have "nothing to lose" and therefore possess the freedom to attempt what others consider impossible. This freedom from social expectations becomes a powerful catalyst for risk-taking and innovation. Look at countless self-made individuals from Andrew Carnegie to Oprah Winfrey who started with virtually nothing. What's worth pursuing isn't extreme wealth but becoming "comfortably rich" (15-40 million in liquid assets). This level provides what truly matters beyond health and love: time and freedom from obligation. At this level, you can live anywhere, work on what interests you, and never worry about basic needs. The price? Complete, unwavering commitment. Half-measures and weekend entrepreneurship simply won't work. You must possess not just desire but compulsion-a fierce inner drive that sustains you when luck turns sour and hope seems lost. Without this burning need, this almost irrational commitment, you're better off choosing a different path altogether.
