I don't agree. So u mean if I watch TV I won't get rich.So many people out there that don't know how to read but have money what will u call that. Besides there are many big people who still depends on monthly salary.

The article is spot on

I get your concerns tho

But if one is consumed in entertainment most of the time, ODDS ARE SUCH PERSON WILL BE POOR.

TV is just the illustration


monthly salary will not get you rich

What you do with that monthly salary is what will determine whether you will br rich or not

A salaried person investing in things that brings in residual income (equity, real estate, a second business, etc) will most likely be rich

A salaried person spending money anyhow is on a highway to sweet poverty

Well...

Most Nigerians don't have N2m to their name so......

We should have our own metric on what is considered rich, upper middle class, middle class etc

other countries have their own stats

Like 5m $ upwards is rich in America


$500k is middle class etc

we should have our own stats
Good. 10 m naira should be our middle class.
50 m is being comfortable and 200 m is rich.

2m is just 6,000 dollars. If you think that's rich, rethink
Yeah there is always that point when you switch from considering the value of things in that poor Naira currency and start considering them in dollars, it reveals just how poor Nigeria and to a larger extent Nigerians really are.

poor man mentality.

we ain't expected to have that in cash but in asset that can yield more.

If after all your assets, business, and living allowance, you don't have a minimum of N2m, you are poor.

In as much I agree with the OP points, been poor and rich largely depends on opportunities you get, the people you know and the environment you grow up or live in
This, I can agree with.

#1 The poor watch TV while the rich read

The poor read to be a better person tomorrow
So I disagree to agree with you.



#2 They poor get paid timely and rich get paid based on results

It depends my friend.



#3 The poor blame and rich takes responsibilities

Even the poor takes responsibilities...
The rich also blame.....

They blame their “village people” for any negative events in their life.



#4 The poor save while the rich invest
It's a lie... Both invest..

The poor invest to be rich while the rich invest to have more wealth.



#5 The poor know it all while the rich continuously learn

The poor also do a continuous learning my friend.
Talking from experience.



#6 The poor believe that money is the root of all evil while the rich believe poverty is the root of all evil

It's a lie.



#7 Poor have lottery mentality rich have an action mentality

It's applicable to both parties.
Especially the spoilt rich kids.

Kudos though... Offense Sir.

Considering #3, Buhari must be a very poor man,, even though he's a president.. He's very poor when it comes to creating wealth.. No wonder his cattle doesn't grow more than 150, year in year out
Poor man. Always blaming people instead of taking responsibility. Smh
Re: 7 Differences Between The Poor And The Rich by spiralwedge(m): 7:07pm On Dec 07, 2018
The poor argues stubbornly, ignorantly and unnecessarily, prob out of frustration; the rich either ignores or dismisses with a line or statement.

You will see plenty of poor people on NL.

Wow! Wow!! Wow!!!
Bravo!!!
I was smiling as I read through the article because it was as if the writer used me as a case study for the rich man grin grin
Everything that is said to be the attitude of the rich is indeed my character, and everything he said there is the absolute truth.

I look at people playing bet and other lotteries as misguided people. For God sake, how can you base your future riches on the assumption of winning a lottery?

I hardly have time for TV except occasionally watching BBC news or documentary as films always bore me even when I try to force myself to watch as a way of unwinding.

Being rich is a choice but you must pay the price which is outright focus and determination to achieve results regardless of how difficult the situation is.

I keep expanding my sources of income while earnings keep going up even at a time many around me are struggling to get by.

Of course. The rich will buy a $15,000 145" MicroLED TV to read ebooks.

Btw the new Avengers Endgame trailer is out. Happy to see Jeremy Renner again cool

To be honest, most rich folks buy such big screens for status and decorations and their stay home wives of course grin, they don't really watch stuffs that often.

Some do. I wouldn't buy a $15k tv for decoration. I'd rather install a fireplace or a big ass painting. Or be like Bill gates and have a large aquarium grin

Imagine a girl saving for 3 months to buy a 30k fone. That's less than $100. A few hours wage in the US angry
