4 simple steps

Four Simple Steps to Becoming a Billionaire

by Johnny Debacle

From Carter’s Adventure, here is a list of three habits of billionaires:

1. Exercise daily.
2. Follow your passion.
3. Read. A lot. At least two hours a day, but many said they read four or more hours a day.

This type of advice always makes us reflect back on the McSweeney’s piece, 7 Habits of Highly Successful People:

1. Skiing
2. Yachting
3. Snorkeling
4. Golf
5. Polo
6. Dinner parties
7. Shopping

In our professional opinion, the best way to become obscenely wealthy is still the old fashioned way in 4 simple steps.

Western World Version

1. Take outrageous risks with extremely high upside.
2. Be the 1 out of 500 million for whom it pans out. This one is key so focus on it.
3. Attribute your wealth creation to your own hard work, your own genius and the power of your business plan. Be sure to stress how your wealth was singularly made possible by your unique endowment of elbow grease, street smarts, common sense, all of which your competitors obviously lacked (proven by how poor they are compared to you).
4. Buy a mega yacht and/or athletic team.

Russian World Version*

1. Acquire assets illegally either from or with the help of the state. Extra rubles for seizing commodity related assets
2. Kill all your rivals.
3. Buy a mega yacht and/or athletic team.
