I Juz Wanna Die :'(

Photoshoot: when ppl tell me that i look familiar, i dont know what to tell them...except perhaps i have a v.common face?!


I was almost knocked down by a car...but the sad thing is i didnt die...v.much to his disappointment, i'm still not dead yet! anyway, my life is totally worthless to him! even the driver despises me n didnt kill me...i'm better off dead! :'( when asked if he was trying to swear at me again...he said he wouldnt waste his time on this! anyway, he wouldnt think its a waste of his precious time if i were some atas anal-yst or top ceo! n he would nvr ever say anything remotely rude in front of his 100% perfect n flawless dear ladies...as he wanna b seen as the perfect gentleman to them! of course, i'm 1000001 times more inferior n definitely cant b compared to his 100% perfect n flawless dear ladies n i'm deemed to b fit to jump off from his shiti-bank building!!! :'( i'm better off dead!!! :'(

Anyway, cant understand y som ppl keep blaming their poor parents for their lack of university education...there r many avenues such as scholarships n bursary schemes avail for those who r smart...n for those who r only average, the banks r v.happy to lend u $$$ to pursue ur tertiary education! well, u shld blame ur own lack of intelligence n attitude for where u r in life...instead of laying the blame on ur poor parents! -.-" there r many successful ppl who dont have much education n they didnt blame their poor parents for being unable to provide them with as much education as they would like! i've wrote alot abt social mobility last year...now i'm thinking that it would be good for me to find time to read the classic "The Great Gatsby"...i was a literature student so i can appreciate good classics ;p

And i'm always amused by those bitchy ppl who love to bitch abt how i dress n my hair color...if there is nothing in ur life which is more interesting than my dress sense...my deepest sympathy goes out to u! =.=" also amused with how som ppl try to sell me all sorts of stuff that I don't need all under the branding of friendship. But have those ppl even considered me as a fren in the v.first place? =.="

As usual, i cant empathsize with those really mean ppl who r fat n ugly n lack education n $$$ n basic social grace n cant speak basic decent english but who r jealous of me n make all sorts of jealous comments! btw, some self-perceived atas ppl condemned me as having inferiority complex...so i cant help u with ur inferiority complex! ;p u dont need to b jealous of whatever i have...cos nobody has given me anything in life...i've fought hard for whatever that i have now! pardon me, but i really cant decipher bad english...i dont rem my grammar being that bad even in primary school...n my sec school teachers forbade us to speak Singlish...we were supposed to grow up into fine young ladies speaking decent english...btw, i'm pretty good at acting airhead...pls dont b jealous of that as well ;p

Saw fren buying $4 fish soup dinner for his gf. He said he knows 21yo model but she's hard to please. His gf is easily contented n happy. She looks like normal office lady, not pretty, juZ pleasant looking. I asked him if most guys go for such easily contented n happy gals. He said no. Most guys go for pretty n young gals. I'm not easily contented n not happy. Is this a big turn off to guys?
this fb posting attracted 74comments...
I dunno if those gals who r easily contented n happy cos they havent seen the dirty evil world out there. How can a person who has nvr experienced hardship appreciate hardship ? Maybe in their world, there is no such thing as poverty n sadness So they r easily contented n happy? btw, I met a gal who seemed so happy n cheerful the other day. I dunno if she's juZ acting cute or genuinely happy. If u see those poor old aunties picking up cardboards, how can one still b happy? I don't get it!!! Of course I can joke n pretend to b happy. But I can't lie to myself n pretend not to see the dirty evil world out there n all the poverty n unhappiness in this world!!! N ESP we r living in such a practical society where ppl try to make use of u n won't wanna associate with u if u r of no value to them !!! I admit freely that I'm not happy n I Dunno how to b happy!!! How to b happy looking at all the poverty n evil dirty world out there ??? I'm juz being realistic n saying what I see in the evil dirty world out there! I choose to see all the sufferings n poverty n sadness in this evil dirty world. Those who ignore these r looking at the world thru rose tinted glasses!


Somewhere i feel that many ppl tend to stereotype models as shallow n materialistic ppl after watching the channel u sun nite 9.15pm show Material Queen...not only models r shallow n materialistic...the other day, i sat thru a talk...the speaker said her fren wanted a prada bag but didnt wanna invest in one so asked her bf to buy her a prada bag (how shallow can ppl get when one considers buying a prada bag as an investment when the value immediately depreciates upon leaving the store!!!) anyway, the bf refused to buy her a prada bag cos the price tag is his monthly salary!!! so they broke up subsequently...how shallow n materialistic can ppl get? lemme offer u my shallow n materialistic view, i can buy 2 prada bags n 1 prada wallet in less than an hour...so i cant imagine dating a guy whose monthly salary is the same as a prada bag! o.O" i hav nvr considered buying prada bags as an investment cos from personal experience, their quality sucks! it's juz a want, a nice-to-have thing...for a shallow n materialistic gal like me...n i can buy my own prada bags n dont need to beg any guy to buy me one ;p

I don't understand all those ppl who r inferior to me in every sense yet they r more confident n much happier than me. Call me cynical perhaps. But I get these kind of so called frenz who don't even treat me like a fren. All they do Is to sell me stuff that I don't even need n make use of me. They can't even respect my time. Which is y I always say I hav nothing! Perhaps I'm different but what I believe is if everyone is so contented with life n everything. Then there wouldn't b much motivation for change n progress. Perhaps I grew up seeing how dirty n evil this world is n how practical ppl r. They will make use of u if they can n if u r of no value to them they dump u like a hot iron. N they won't feel any gulit in doing so cos u r not impt to them n their ends!!! N y shld I allow myself to b made use of by those ppl who claim they r my frenz ? To make them more happy than they alrdy r? Who gives a shit abt me n my feelings? Nobody!!! Som ppl hav no respect for my time n think that only their time is impt n like to fly me aeroplane! Examples r those ppl who go shopping while u wait for them. Obviously they think ur time is not impt. Only their time is impt !!! If u want my opinion. What I can say is those ppl who keep complaining abt their job n wanna change job, they won't b any happier at their new jobs if they don't change their sucky whiny attitude. They may think its more atas. I can only say maybe a more atas employee with whiny sucky attitude! I have nothing. N I'm constantly surrounded by ppl who juz want to make use of me !!! Happy??? I'm better off dead !!! Everyone wants me dead !!!

Came across this on fb...the honest truth is i hav nothing! :'(
""Stop holding on to what hurts and make room for what feels good."

In our lives we are faced with many circumstances including instances of heartbreak that we may at one point have had control over, but eventually will not.

When we are done grieving we have to come to terms with what hurt us so much, forgive if it is needed, and be able to let go. Once we are truly able to let go of the things that have caused us so much pain, only then are we truly able to experience life for what it really is and what it really should be. When we release the pain from our lives, we allow room for the things that life can bring in an effort to make us feel good.

So stop holding on to what hurts, let go of the negativity, let go of the disappointment, let go of the regret, and be all that you can be by making room for happiness, success and fulfilment."

Know when to hold em, fold em, know when to walk away, know when to run!!!
"If you’re gonna play the game, boy, ya gotta learn to play it right.

You got to know when to hold ‘em, know when to fold ‘em,
Know when to walk away and know when to run.
You never count your money when you’re sittin’ at the table.
There’ll be time enough for countin’ when the dealin’s done.

Ev’ry gambler knows that the secret to survivin’
Is knowin’ what to throw away and knowing what to keep.
‘Cause ev’ry hand’s a winner and ev’ry hand’s a loser,
And the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep.”

The Pencil's Perspectives

My latest "Red Magenta" hair color! Frenz commented that i've lost weight upon seeing this pic n asked if its my younger sister...anyone who knows me would know that i dont hav any siblings...i have nothing! i didnt lose weight...i've only lost my heart n soul! :'(


From Neo Mui Kian:

"A PENCIL MAKER TOLD THE PENCIL 5 IMPORTANT LESSONS JUST BEFORE PUTTING IT IN THE BOX :

1.) EVERYTHING YOU DO WILL ALWAYS LEAVE A MARK .

2.) YOU CAN ALWAYS CORRECT THE MISTAKES YOU MAKE.

3.) WHAT IS IMPORTANT IS WHAT IS INSIDE OF YOU.

4.) IN LIFE , YOU WILL UNDERGO PAINFUL SHARPENINGS, WHICH WILL ONLY MAKE YOU BETTER.

5.) TO BE THE BEST PENCIL, YOU MUST ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE HELD AND GUIDED BY THE HAND THAT HOLDS YOU.
We all need to be constantly sharpened. This parable may encourage you to know that you are a special person, with unique talents and abilities. Only you can fulfill the purpose which you were born to accomplish. Never allow yourself to get discouraged and think that your life is insignificant and cannot be changed and, like the pencil, always remember that the most important part of who you are, is what's inside of you."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Another inspiring sharing from Neo Mui Kian:

"Perspectives
A business executive was deep in debt and could see no way out.
Creditors were closing in on him. Suppliers were demanding payment.
He sat on the park bench, head in hands, wondering if anything could save
his company from bankruptcy.

Suddenly an old man appeared before him.

"I can see that something is troubling you," he said.
After listening to the executive's woes, the old man said,
"I believe I can help you." He asked the man his name,
wrote out a cheque, and pushed it into his hand saying,

"Take this money. meet me here exactly one year from today, and you can
pay me back at that time."
Then, he turned and disappeared as quickly as he had come.

The business executive saw in his hand a cheque for $500,000, signed
by John D.Rockefeller, then one of the richest men in the world!

"I can erase my money worries in an instant!" he realized.

Nonetheless, the executive decided to put the cheque in his safe first.
Just knowing it was there, would give him the strength to work
out a way to save his business, he thought.

With renewed optimism, he negotiated better deals and got extended terms
of payment from creditors.

Soon he could close some big sales. Within a few months, he
was out of debt and making money once again.

Exactly a year later, he returned to the park with that uncashed
cheque. The old man did not appear for some time; yet, the business
executive decided to wait for a while more.

A while later the old man came along the way but seemed to be unmindful
of the business executive. He stopped the old man and was about to hand over the
cheque, with words of thanks, as well as to share his success story.

At the same time, he saw a nurse come running up and grabbing the old
man. "I'm so glad I caught him!" she cried. "I hope he hasn't been
bothering you. He's always escaping from the rest home and telling
people he's John D. Rockefeller." And she led the old man away by the arm.

The astonished executive just stood there, stunned. All year long he'd
been wheeling and dealing, buying and selling, convinced he had half a
million dollars behind him.

Suddenly, he realized that it wasn't the money, real or imagined,
that had turned his life around.

It was his new found confidence that gave him the power to achieve
anything he went after. It was HOPE . Hope given by a passerby.

"Our duty is to encourage anyone in his struggle to live up to his
own highest idea, and strive at the same time, to make the ideal as
near as possible to the truth" - Swami Vivekananda

The role of the passerby s, all that one encounters is key to give that Hope,-
a glimpse of what could be.
For a life lived where the past looks better than the future is a life
lived without HOPE

Its all about perspectives!"

But the sad but true fact is...ppl wont bother to look at what's inside of u...ppl only choose to judge n condemn me n label me as hideous, poor, fat n dumb monster n despise me!!! ppl wont bother to give a shit abt u if u r of no value to them! this is a damn practical society where ppl will only suck up to those who can help them advance their career or biz! so he wont bother abt u even if u were to die in front of him if u r not an anal-yst or top ceo! u r the lowest lifeform n ur life is worthless to him! he thinks u r juz worthless trash who cant b compared to anyone he knows n u r only qualified to jump off from his building!!!

Btw, i was at a shoe shop at somerset313 yest when there was this tall n skinny gal who thinks she can look down on me cos she was carrying a Chanel handbag n i'm not! btw, y aint she carrying an Hermes if she wanna stand out from the crowd? this type of gal is what my leechie mum would term as "pedestrian"...she would look like one of the many millions of v.ordinary gals in the crowd if u were to strip her of her Chanel handbag! btw, i'm supposed to hav an inferiority complex...so am i supposed to feel more inferior juz bcos i'm not carrying a Chanel bag? i've seen gals carrying Chanel bags who use nets to pay for a cheapo cup of coffee...i dont know how atas that can be! lol ;p

Guess most ppl would have read abt some FT scholar here calling the locals here "dogs"...som self-perceived atas ppl despise us n call us "dogs"? n i need to put up with some atrocious english...well, if u could even consider that english! =.=" btw, i was at this Spanish mass market boutique with the name of a fruit the other day...n i asked this cheena lady to get me a new piece of clothing which i wanted to buy...she ignored me (i dont think i look transparent? or perhaps she thinks i cant even afford to buy 1 cardigan from a Spanish mass market brand???!!!)...but she went to serve customers of a fairer skin-tone...i'm being ostracised here! trust me, i wont b going back to this brand anytime soon! -.-" i dont get this type of shitty treatment at H&M!

There was one instructor at the fitness class n one student...n that one student was me! =.=" checkout the view from the gym o.O looking at fireworks through the windows of the gym on the treadmill alone on a fri nite is a sad thing ya...n i juz did that =(


Emotional scars r the hardest to heal...he condemned me as hideous, poor, fat n dumb monster who cant b compared to anyone he knows n deemed me as only qualified to jump off from his shiti-bank building!!!


Traders r the ones whom i really admire...not those self-perceived atas anal-yst who switched views faster than flipping roti-pratas!
From Digital: "if u listen to anal-yst, u'll be picking up cardboards in ur retirement!"

U won't ignore me if I were some analyst or fund mgr or top CEO. But unfortunately, I'm not. U despise me cos I'm too lowly. I'm too poor, hideous, dumb, fat, illiterate n hav nothing so can't b compared to anyone u know. I'm of no value to u. U r a practical guy. I'm totally worthless to u. I'm not like ur dear lady who is a star analyst n appears on tv or like ur dear Cindy who is savvy to get to know atas ppl from everywhere. U deem me to b unqualified n unworthy of ur time. I'm even worse than a stray dog in ur eyes. Im the lowest lifeform that shldnt even b alive.

My life is totally worthless to u. U won't give a shit abt me even if I were to die right in front of u. Mayb u will only think tt I'm dirtying ur exp floor only


Emotional scars r the hardest to heal...i'm still sitting on my huge paper losses...i muz always rem this saying from Digital: "if u listen to anal-yst, u'll be picking up cardboards in ur retirement!"

I have nothing n nobody has given me anything...whatever i have right now is what i fought hard for! we r living in a damn practical society where ppl r only interested to make use of u n when they deemed u to b of no value to them , they dump u like shit!!! i may sound bitter...but i grew up learning the hard way that nobody will despise u if u r rich...tt's how our damn superficial society works! sad but true facts of this damn practical urban jungle!

Mayb I shld go get a driving license n become taxi driver then mayb he won't despise me so much!!!but driving's soooo stressful n it's so hard to get a driving license here! mayb i shld consider becoming a factory worker? juz assemble stuff...no need to use much of my airhead brains...then mayb he wont despise me so much eh? o.O i hav another brilliant idea...mayb i shld apply to b a janitor at his bank...then i can announce to the entire world tt i'm a shiti-banker too ;p really sounds v.atas ya =) then i muz carry my prada bags to the janitor's room so tt i wont look out of place with the ladies there o.O"

He claims that he has a tortured mind from reading my smses...but he doesnt realize how horrible he made me feel! he has outraged my modesty on numerous occasions by either swearing at me or pointing his middle finger at me! he made me feel like worthless trash! how can he possibly b suffering from a tortured mind when he happily ignores me n happily dates his ladies n hangs out with his inner circle of atas frenz n lives his glamorous life?!

He has already condemned me as incorrigible, bad, hideous, poor, dumb, fat n evil monster who cant b compared to anyone he knows! He despies n hates me so much that he wants me dead! He treats me like worthless trash n i'm only deemed to b qualified to jump off from his building!!! I was almost knocked down by a car...but v.much to his disappointment, i'm still not dead!!! i'm only deemed to be qualified to jump off from his building!

From the restaurant last nite. Nobody bought me any flowers :'(

"Is the grass really greener?
Handbag.com – Tue, Jan 31, 2012

Discontent is a dirty word. Thanks to an unending barrage of adverts depicting smiling, laughing couples, and the Hollywood machine churning out one rom-com after another, we're constantly being presented with ideals of 'perfection'. But can any of us honestly admit our love lives are as perfect and wonderful as the characters' on the silver screen? Hardly. And would any of us admit it? Probably not.

But we can't blame this on Hollywood entirely. If you're bored in your long-term relationship, just seeing your newly loved-up mate glowing with happiness can lead you down a dark and murky path of self-questioning: 'Why isn't my bloke that romantic? Is he even right for me?' Or if you're single, your friends in long-term relationships - where there are hugs on tap and plans with parents - can leave you feeling lonely and unloved. Yet behind closed doors, those very friends may well be bored to tears with their familiar routine. This is 'Grass is Greener' syndrome, and unfortunately, it's human nature.

"It's instinctive for women to want to feel we are with the best possible mate", says Kate Taylor, resident relationship expert at match.com. "We have so much choice in our lives today that we can get confused and look to our friends for reassurance or direction. We think, 'Is she happier that me? Should I be following her path? Would that make me happier?'

But as Kate notes, it's easy to only look at the bright side of our friends' lives. Lucy, a 24 year-old administrator, says that she became disenchanted with her own relationship after continually comparing it to her best mate's seemingly blissful love-life. "Every weekend with my boyfriend was the same. We'd go to the pub, then maybe shopping. Sometimes we'd have friends over. All the while my friend would tell me all about the overblown romantic gestures her bloke had made, and all the wonderful places he had taken her, and I started to think that perhaps my boyfriend wasn't the one for me. Surely if he really loved me he'd be doing the same things?"

In the end, Lucy and her boyfriend split up, and Lucy admits that she'd rather have stayed with her boyfriend as they were than be single now: "I thought being single would give me the thrill of thinking that 'the right one' might be around the corner, but instead I just miss what I had."

Conversely, it's easy to see why couples can fall foul of the same thinking about their single mates - there's more approval to be had from the opposite sex when you're single, you get chatted up more and you flirt more than people in relationships do. "Hearing singleton's tales of wild weekends can make previously blissful couples feel like their youth is passing them by," says Kate. "'I should be having wild-romps on yachts! Not spending the weekend comparing paint charts!'". And this thinking can cause you to pick fights with your man, partly out of discontent - you focus purely on the negative - but partly, Kate says, because you might feel you have 'nothing to lose' because if you split up, you'd be single again, which might be what you actually want. But of course, says Kate, "Singletons rarely admit to having long lonely weekends in front of the TV with only a bag of Doritos for company. Couples hear a skewed version of events."

So how can we find a happy balance? If we're constantly eyeing up everyone else's love lives, what chance do we have at ever being satisfied?

While feelings of envy can be potentially destructive (as was the case with Lucy), Kate believes it can be helpful and motivational, providing it jolts you into realising you need to make a change. "Every time you find yourself feeling envious of someone, dig down until you find what it is you wish you were doing, and do it! Envy can be a brilliant barometer of your secret yearnings, and you can use it as a catalyst to help you make some positive changes in your own life."

Of course, this isn't to say you should ditch your boyfriend in pursuit of a hedonistic single life, or jump into a relationship with the first willing fella that comes along. It means taking the time to identify what your needs really are, and making sure that each is being fulfilled in a way that balances out with the others.

Remember life is not a film
Even the most realistic chick flicks can paint a very rose-tinted picture of relationships. Remember that as you're sat in the cinema seething because your boyfriend would never stand in the rain for hours / fight a swarm of village banditos/sacrifice his Xbox for you, every other girl there is thinking the same.

Remember that everybody rows
Yes, during those wonderful heady stages of a new relationship, it's all pleases and thank yous and utmost consideration. But as a couple settle into comfortable familiarity, bickering over whose turn it is to cook can overtake those whispered sweet nothings. This is the natural progression of relationships, and just because John and Sally look like love personified when they're out in public, it doesn't mean they don't also argue about wet towels left on the bed.

Remember why you are where you are
If you're single, be patient: "There's someone out there for everyone", says Kate. So enjoy the 'me-time' you have while you wait for that someone - really get to know yourself before sharing your life with someone else. If you're coupled-up, it's because there was something about your bloke that attracted you to him when you met. Focus on that and do things together that remind you of why you fell for each other in the first place. Of course, if you're really unhappy, it may well be time to join the single ranks, but make sure you're doing it for the right reasons, and not because you've got unrealistic ideas about love."

Good Quotes:

"It depends on each individual and the style - investor or trader. Only an individual with substantial funds may be an investor and trader at the same time, that is, allocating part of the investment funds as a long term investor on some high dividend yield stocks, as well as part of the funds for short term trading as a trader to take advantage of market swings. But it is important the traders have to know the apply the tools and techniques of short term trading, and long term investors knowing FA. For those who do not have much funds must choose to be either a long term investor with the choice of holding high dividend yield stocks, or merely trading ignoring the dividend factor. A trader with knowledge of trading tools has to let go of losing stocks or laggards even if it pays dividend. Traders have to consider all the cost of buying a stock will become a sunk cost, not to look backward on the price of purchase, but look forward to decide whether to let go for losses or taking profits, or keep to anticipate future profits. Most people who are trading on fundamentals, or in fact most retail investors not trading with TA or with a plan, would likely not able to make firm decision to let go of their stocks at a loss. August/September 2011 was a period of good example that investors do not want to let go, and even at this time of bull, the prices of the stocks they are still holding are still lower than the price they bought before Aug 2011. If they had been traders, they would have let go during August and returned during Oct/Nov 2011 with a lower price to gain back now more than what they had lost when they let go before the down swing." ~ Lee TG

"The secrets to a millionaire's success
If you want to be a millionaire you have to think differently.

By Stephen D Simpson | Investopedia.com – Sat, Jan 28, 2012

There's no real practical reason to ask "who wants to be a millionaire?" because the only people who won't put their hand up are religious types who've taken vows of poverty and those who are already multi-millionaires. Unfortunately, there's a big gulf between those who want it and those who do the things to make it happen.

Based on recent statistics on UK household income, millionaire-dom is not something that's going to happen for most people, even with the dubious benefits of inflation. An adult earning the median level of income (£26,200 a year in 2011) and saving an impressive 20% of that would need almost 200 years to save £1 million (excluding taxes and investment gains). It's pretty clear, then, that a would-be millionaire has to think outside the boundaries of "median" experience.

Start a business

There are certainly people who can become millionaires by working for other people, but this is not an especially good route to choose. The trouble with trying to become a millionaire by working for other people is that there are always other people siphoning off the value of whatever you produce. Say you're a hotshot salesman – although you're going to get your cut, a lot of the value you create is going to get split among a broader pool of workers, managers and the owner(s) of the business.

Start your own business, though, and you get to decide how to divide that pie. Better still, your ownership stake can become more and more valuable over time as that business becomes larger and larger. While a good employee may get raises and promotions as his or her employer grows, they'll never see the same benefits (including the appreciation in the value of the ownership interest) as the owners.

Use other people's money

One of the remarkably consistent features of stories about people who go from relatively no wealth to major wealth is the role of other people's money in making it happen. Sometimes it's start-up capital from a generous relative, or maybe it's a small business loan or venture capital.

Borrowed money can be a major force multiplier. Behind virtually every property empire is borrowed money and the use of leverage in investing (whether through buying stocks on margin, buying options or buying futures) can rapidly magnify a skilful investor's success. Of course, this cuts both ways – just as borrowed money can create a large business (or portfolio) quickly, just one mistake in an over-leveraged enterprise can bring the whole thing crashing down.

It comes down, then, to risk tolerance. Those who really want to build large wealth (and do so quickly) through business or investment will have to do so in part with other people's money.

Cultivate a valued skill

Wages respond to supply and demand just like everything else, so it is very important to cultivate a skill that is not only in demand, but scarce enough to be valuable. Architecture and law, for instance, are both specialised skills, but not necessarily rare enough to make their practitioners wealthy unless they are at the high end of their profession.

Sports is an obvious example, but most people know in their teens whether they have the rare physical gifts (and perhaps the even rarer mental discipline and dedication) to open the doors to a professional sports career, and it's not really a door that can be opened in college or later. Medicine and engineering, though, are both open to college-aged people who have the requisite abilities and the willingness to put in the effort. The services of these professionals are not only almost always in demand, but the supply is small enough that professionals here can fairly expect to become millionaires on the basis of their labours.

This is also true for unconventional skills as well. Pursuing a career as a writer, actor or professional gambler is a virtual guarantee of poverty for most people. For those who actually have the skills necessary to succeed, though, it can be their best chance of building real wealth.

Out-think or out-hustle

Lazy and self-made millionaire just don't go together. Going back to that supply-demand equation, anything that's relatively easy, convenient and accessible is going to have ample supply and relatively low payouts. Since most people don't actually want to work that hard, though, there are real wealth-creation opportunities out there for those willing to think and/or work just a little harder than average.

One option for building exceptional wealth is to out-think the majority of people out there. While pursuits like writing, investing and inventing all involve a tremendous amount of effort and dedication, there is at least some aspect of out-thinking to them all. Steve Jobs of Apple, Richard Branson of Virgin and Lord Alan Sugar all clearly worked hard to achieve success, but a lot of that success was predicated on seeing things that others didn't see and figuring out how to do them even better.

Out-hustling is an undervalued aspect of wealth creation. Success in business is often about the hustle – the willingness to make one more call or work an extra hour later. The field of "hustle" is wide, rich and fertile. You can make good money visiting auctions and reselling undervalued items, just as you can make good money from a variety of multi-level marketing programs. The question is whether you want to spend the hours it takes to drive the process forward.

Rental property is a good example. It is actually not all that difficult to find rental properties, buy them and rent them out. Do this well and it's fairly easy to earn an annual return of 8-15%. The problem is that there are a myriad of small annoyances that go with it – hassles in haggling over the purchase price, hassles in getting mortgages, hassles in getting tenants, hassles in dealing with tenants and so on. Some people just don't want to be bothered with this, but those who don't mind the annoyances can reap the rewards.

The bottom line

Having £1 million or more in net worth is still uncommon enough to be special and significant, and it doesn't often come as a by-product of luck or chance. Hard work is a virtual requisite, but so too is a willingness to take on some risk (such as starting a business or using leverage) or cultivate a rare gift (like writing or inventing). Although simple living and sound investing will help anyone build more wealth, a special level of success requires a special person who is willing to do more and risk more than most people."
