Are millions no longer enough, do you need billions now?

[JuiceDrinker]

Millionaires with boats and nice cars are popping up. It seems that all of us know millionaires and they are on every street. This seems to be a world wide phenomena even in Africa!

Do you need to be a billionaire to stick out these days? Do you need billions and a luxury yacht to impress instead of just having a boat?

Can i make a suggestion please that you stop posting this type of rubbish !!!!!

Why are you wasting your time trying to impress anyone?

As long as your living your life comfortably I dont see any reason to need to "Stand Out".

There are only a handful of billionaires for a reason and you will never be one.

"standing out" is the last thing I'd want to do.......you see how all these celebrities get hounded by the paparazzi day in and day out.......no matter how famous, that's not the kind of life i want for myself and my family............that's just me.......

While a million dollars is not what it was 20 years ago it is still a decent amount of money. If our parents strived to be millionaires then I guess we need to work towards being multi-millionaires. A million dollars 20 years ago is similar to 10 million today. The goal of becoming a billionaire is a little far fetched... but hell who am I to tell you that you wont do it?

LOL! This is NOT about ME. I just asked a general question.
I'm not even trying to become a millionaire! I'm trying to afford a nice car like a BMW and a house in the suburbs.

Being a millionaire has become way to common to be impressive. That's all I'm saying.

I'm still impressed with people who have worked their asses off and became millionaires.... I think its a great accomplishment

I'd say this is probably one of your least impressive posts to date At least from here, you've very likely to improve.

As for being a millionaire, multimillionaire, or billionaire...all of those are achievable. Making millions is definitely achievable by most people, they just don't realize it or don't have the convictions and/or desire to do it. As for becoming a billionaire, if Warren Buffet believed he was not capable of making a fortune, he probably wouldn't have tried. So at least try if that is one of your goals.

They were talking about this on the radio. The millionaires in the world count for around 1/5 of 1 percent of the total population of Earth. This is based on total value of all assets. So if you only counted those that had a million available to spend, the number would most likely be even less.

Most people on earth are farmers without machines. In western countries you can find millionaires on every street.

All i was saying is that you are either born a billionaire or you were born with the mind to become a billionaire. There are very few people that can just become a billionaire.

[x3xsolxdierx3x]

Shoot to be a billionaire.......and, hey, if you fall a little short.......your'e still not doing THAT badly.......lol

Owning a BMW...

has become way to common to be impressive. That's all I'm saying.

Seriously, try aiming for being genuinely happy- that's still unique enough to be truly impressive.
