In the past we have dwelt on different tips on how to save and achieve that financial freedom; how to break out of the financial rat race. It is with the same vigor that we are going to explore the different tips on how to remain poor or even sink further into poverty. Nothing in this world comes easy and free, and for whatever success or failure in your life you have to work for it. Most achievements in life are earned, knowingly or subconsciously. Below is a look at some ten tips on how to remain poor:
1. Never wake up early. Keep stretching and turning in bed until you
get too hungry to continue dozing. If there are no bed bugs, why hurry to get up?
2. Never plan how to spend your money. Whenever you get money, start
spending it right away and when it's finished, you try to count and
recall how you spent it.
3. Don't think of saving until you have
real big money. How can you save when you earn so little? Those telling
you to save are not sympathetic to your burning needs.
4. Don't
engage in activities usually reserved for the "uneducated". How can
you, a graduate, engage in petty trade, network marketing or home-based
production? That's for people who never went to school!
5. Don't
think of starting a business until an angel comes from heaven and gives
you capital. How do they expect you to invest before you get millions?
Even though more than half the businesses in your town were started with
little capital, you as a smart person can only start with millions.
6. Complain about everything except your own attitude and laziness.
Blame the system, the government and the banks that refused to lend you
money. They are all bad and do not want you to get rich.
7. Spend more than you earn. To achieve this, buy consumer products on credit and keep borrowing from friends and employers.
8. Compete in dressing. Make sure you're wearing the latest clothes.
Intimidate the congregation with your trendy fashions every Sunday.
Whenever your neighbour buys a new phone, you get one that is more
expensive.
9. Get yourself a nice second hand car that costs more than three times your yearly salary.
10. Give your children everything they ask for since you're such a
loving parent. They should not struggle for anything because you do not
want them to suffer that way, they will grow up lazy and hence poor
enough to ensure they can't help you at old age.
Unfortunately to avoid the ultimate result of these tips (poverty), you will have to avoid most, if not all, of the aforementioned behaviours.
