如果(不靠運氣)變得富有:

How to Get Rich

尋求財富,而不是錢或者身份。財富是擁有你在睡覺的時候都能掙錢的資產。錢是我們用來轉移時間和財富的東西。身份是你在社會層級中所處的位置。

Seek Wealth, not money or status. Wealth is having assets that earn while you sleep. Money is how we transfer time and wealth. Status is your place in the social hierarchy.

懂得創造道德的財富是可能的。如果你暗地裡輕視財富,財富就會躲著你。

Understand that ethical wealth creation is possible. If you secretly despise wealth, it will elude you.

忽視那些玩身份遊戲的人。他們通過攻擊玩財富創造遊戲的人來獲得- Archimedes.

財富需要槓桿,商業槓桿來自於資本,人以及沒有邊際成本的可以複製的產品(程式碼和媒體)。

Fortunes require leverage, Business leverage comes from capital, people and products with no marginal cost of replication .

資本指的是錢。用上你的特殊技能,承擔責任,並展示出好的判斷力來募集錢。

Capital means money. To raise money. apply your specific knowledge, with accountability, and show resulting good judgment.

勞動力是為你工作的人。這是最古老的,以及最具爭議的槓桿形式。勞動力槓桿會讓你的父母留下深刻印象,但是不要浪費你的生命來追逐它。

Labor means people working for you. Itwhile still keeping an uncluttered calendar.

設定並執行一個理想的個人時薪。如果解決一個問題能夠省下的低於你的個人時薪,忽視它。如果外包一個任務的成本低於你的個人時薪,外包之。

Set and enforce an aspirational personal hourly rate. If fixing a problem will save less than your hourly rate, ignore it. If outsourcing a task will cost less than your hourly rate, outsource it.

盡你全力努力工作。即使你和誰一起工作以及工作內容比你有多努力更加重要。

Work as hard as you can.Even though who you work with and what you work on are more important than how hard you work.

在你所做的事情上做到全世界最好,持續重新定義你所做的事情直到這成為事實。

Become the best in the world at what you do. Keep redefining what you do until this is true.

沒有快速致富的方案,那種方案只是讓別人從你身上發財。

There are no get rich quick schemes. Thats just someone else getting rich off you.

通過槓桿應用你的特殊技能,最終你會得到你所應得的。

Apply your specific knowledge, with leverage. and eventually you will get what you deserve.

當你最終變得富有,你會意識到這不是一開始你尋求的地方。但那是另一天了。

When youre finally wealthy, youll realize that it wasnt what you were seeking in the first place. But thats for another day. follow more.
