Real wealth does not come through luck but wisdom.

[Orpichukwu]

Wisdom and hard work push people into achieving success in life, but we should not undermine luck. We have people who are very hard-working and work smart, but they have still not reached that level which they want to reach in life. We also have those who put in less effort, but luck has helped them meet someone who elevated them to a length they could have only wished for. Hard work plays a role, but background, connection and every other factor also contribute to someone's success story.

Wisdom and application of the wisdom.

Executing the plan to take the risk marks the important decision. Often coming out from the bubble of making money just by a salary is difficult. The day job will fund you the basic money which you need to allocate for assets of different risk classes. Then inves in these and see how nicely or poorly they perform.

Hard work and smart work is important and being able to change as the situation demands makes the difference.

Sometimes we see people who have become rich by luck, but the truth is that they have failed to maintain that wealth. You cannot remain rich for a long time with the wealth you get based on luck, because you do not have the skills or knowledge to manage your finances and wealth. You do not even know how to use that wealth properly.

The main reason for the long-term success of a person who has achieved it through hard work is his skills in financial management and proper use of wealth. He who knows how to earn wealth also knows how to protect it. He who does not know how to earn it cannot be expected to use it properly.

  I align with this,  just like someone that won jackpot that's not wealth because it won't last, any wealth that doesn't have a way to regenerate it won't last, wealthy people has a constant source of income and their wealth last for time of time.

Wisdom and knowledge help to build a system that will not only generate money but to sustain it, that's why it's important in business, lucky wealth can't last for time of time, except wisdom is applied.

I am seeing luck as accumulation of long consistency whether in quiet effort or prayer, lucky guy usually has courage to take challenge and chances mentally and financially. But agree with both of you that luck only an entrance for wider and bigger opportunity and many people especially nouveau riche can not maintain what they get because they aren't financially literated and they actually don''t have proper system and skill of cashflow management, lifestyle controlling habit, risk management, asset diversification even they not learn how to invest with discipline. Without those skill no matter how much money do you have, it will soon drained and run out. Diligent and consistent people can increase luck probability not because they are more lucky but they often try, so they know right position to catch the momentum, they are more ready than other. Lesson we can learn from 3% population which control top of pyramid is create financial system so they can keep wealth sustainability. For preople in the bottom of pyramid we can create our own system with principle small or zero money leak, has risk protection and the most important thing as your opinion, not how big our saving but how to make money machine which can ensure our available money can regenerated.

I would always support the idea that it's a matter of wisdom with or without luck. Some people get their wealth by pure luck like inheritence or winning a huge amount in gambling, however they still need wisdom and enough maturity to keep a safe wealth. I can't tell how many people lost their winnings got by luck because they think the big amount won't vanish. And how many others built their wealth depending their skills.

You're right about that, real wealth come through wisdom even though some wealth is been inherited that's (luck) reason been that they didn't work for it, it is more like when you wake up in bed in the morning and just discover that breakfast has been served, if you are ask to explain the process it takes to make that breakfast you can't be able to explain that. So that's how inheritance is, of which wisdom is also required to enable you manage the assets very well because without having a wisdom you might just loss it all hoping that you will surely get it back just as you said about those gamblers who are lucky to win big and later Loss it back to gamble and that's simply because they lack wisdom, so wealth without wisdom is completely nothing.

It's possible that some people are born with wealth because their parents are prosperous entrepreneurs. The second group consists of those who came from low-income or impoverished backgrounds and achieved success through hard work and their aspirations. Those who were fortunate enough to win a lottery or gamble and go from being middle class or impoverished to being wealthy come in third. Finally, some people acquire wealth through unethical or malevolent methods.

It goes without saying that intelligence is essential for building wealth in a positive way. We must petition the Lord for something in order to achieve it. Since it is claimed that one must plow the soil and toil with their own strength in order to survive, we must then put in a lot of effort. For this reason, we are referred to as survivors in this planet.

Intelligence is needed even if you are an evil person or a hard working good person. Just because you are evil and willing to do unethical and immoral things, doesn't mean you can be stupid and still make money because you really can't, you still need intelligence at least in your field.

It's much easier to be a nice person and still hard work and make a lot of money because you won't have to look behind your back all the time, you made it cleanly and that is why it will be fine for you. Most people who got rich in an evil way, did so by relying on others to not get caught, and that means a risk that you do not need when you are a legit business person. I rather do the clean way and keep working hard instead of evil way.

Being successful in life isn't about chance or luck you must do something In order to achieve that, some people think that for them to get wealth things would just work out without them doing anything or making moves to get what they want, life doesn't really work that way. Real wealth requires wisdom but it doesn't stop at that alone if you have wisdom and don't apply it or put it to use it wouldn't do much for you.

[BRINIRHA]

Wealth still requires luck after wisdom. Because if you ask rich people, they will ultimately still mention luck after they have worked hard and worked smart with their wisdom. However, luck can indeed be pursued. Usually, it involves broad insight, which ultimately builds better wisdom.
What is clear is that we must know more than others. We must move faster and think further ahead than others. And remember, to become wealthy, it takes more than just a solid plan and broad knowledge. What is most important is the courage to begin.

Williams Shakespeare once said" the height which great men achieved is not by sudden flight"; which means, it takes hard work, proper planning and doing the right investment to become wealthy.

What are your opinions on this topic?

The title is interesting. For me, the sentence is wise.

Nothing is instant; everything requires effort. Wealth does not come by itself while you are lying down, but because of effort and belief in doing it. The line of fate has been determined in terms of poverty and wealth, but the wise thing to do is to get up and do something that can promote prosperity in life.

Too high and you'll break. Too fast and you'll sprain.
In my belief, wealth is an obligation that must be achieved to perfect the essence of life.

It is very important to know that becoming wealthy in life is not a thing of luck most times, as the bible says, you have to work out your salvation. It is a good thing to say I will become a reach person and proclaim riches to yourself, but agree with me that when you hope for riches and you did not work to achieve it , you will definitely miss your target.
Many times, I use to see some people say, how I wish I will be lucky to achieve this or that , a wish without plan and effort can never be achieved.

Wealth cannot be achieved just by wishing for it dreaming about it. We need to take action and work for it to achieve it.
There are a lot of popular stories around this which shows we need to work for money so that money can work for us later.
The initial hustle is what the game changer is. At one point, we will have enough wealth that it will start compounding by itself and attract more money.

It is also important to let people know that they can be rich through hard work and investment and if they don't have proper management of their wealth they might lose everything due to a flamboyant lifestyle and spending or out of robbery or kidnapping because at this time people are living to show off to their fellow human beings on social media that they have made it in life

What the actual fuck are you talking about here? Not only are you poor, you are an idiot too. Most of the wealthy people, especially in the most modern generation have gotten all their wealth primarily due to luck. Most of them are complete idiots, and here you talk about "wisdom". Not even the top billionaires display any sign of any kind of life or business wisdom whatsoever. They are often making the most basic errors imaginable, they can't even hold a marriage together and here you are talking about some "wisdom".   If you started analyzing the list of rich people, you would see that almost all of them were the result of circumstance, connections or family wealth.

The easiest way, IMO, is upskilling. Adding value to yourself by increasing your expertise, through training and certification, could help you earn more. It's definitely something that could be useful in the long run, and skills would always be with you. This would be about long-term investing for yourself.

This does not in any way guarantee that one will reach any considerable wealth. In fact, if what one does not know what they are doing they will be exploited. They will be given more work and responsibilities without actually getting the pay that should be deserved. You make it sound too easy, whereas in reality each step of that process is considerably difficult. First to actually learn the skills, then to find a place that will value them, and finally to successfully utilize them in the practical sphere.

Nothing is instant; everything requires effort. Wealth does not come by itself while you are lying down, but because of effort and belief in doing it.

Rich kid: Yes, I have invested considerable effort to inherit $100m from my parents. If you do not work hard like me, you won't inherit money like this. Are you actually this retarded or did you write whatever came to your mind just to shitpost?

Even though we might be hoping for luck to locate us we should also put more effort to enable them work together in getting what we want. Of course they often said that all the time and they wouldn't want to put in practice, the most annoying part is that most people are still believing on luck to do everything for them because sometimes most of the rich people normally deceive them by telling them about how lucky they are in anything they lay hands without knowing that they don't want them to be in the game category. Wisdom is just the key to a wealthy life not by luck.
