If you want to be happy, study happiness. If you want to be wealthy, Study wealth — Jim Rohn said it perfectly that to become wealthy you need to learn it.

But some people would say money is the devil of all sins. It’s actually not. We all need money. And we simply think who has money is a bad person. You can not get rich by hating rich people. Money is not all reason for devil works. Money doesn’t have the power to make a bad person, good. Similarly, it doesn’t make a person good if he or she is a bad one. All money can do is it amplifies people’s characteristics.

If you’re a bad person and you get a million-dollar then you’ll not become a good person. Chances are you’ll become a more bad person than the past. If you’ve done some minor bad things when you were poor, having the money you’ll do the worse things. On the other hand, if you are a good person then because of money you’ll not become a bad one. Having the money, you’ll become a better version of yourselves. The money will amplify whatever version you previously were. That’s the power of money.

I am a student of wealth creation for the last couple of years. Don’t get your hope high…
