To WORK!
But specifically, start thinking about what you can do with your time that will make you money. If you start thinking about time as your most valuable resources (and that this hour can never ben gotten back) you'll start to focus your effort and time on activities that will get you to your goal, which in this case is making money.
Good luck to you.
Working for wages is one of the worst ways to make money. Unfortunately, (unless they already have tons of money) this is what most people do.
The most legitimate way to earn money is to get a job, save up and invest in some stocks. If you are adventurous, start a business and start reading books on running a business.
Having people work for you is better than working for someone else, but it takes business sense, ambition and a fair bit of luck to succeed at running a business. It also helps if you're a ruthless (dishonest) bastard. If you are decent and honest you may as well put the "Going out of business" sign up right off the bat. I know this from experience.
