Make money & then do what I love	1245 (83%)	1	0.08%

Instead of rising rapidly in the beginning and flattening out later, the earnings curves of most those who eventually become millionaires was the reverse; their income increased slowly, if at all, for many years. And then after two to three decades, it suddenly went through the roof. The fact remains that the overwhelming majority of people who have become wealthy have become so thanks to work they found profoundly absorbing. The long term study of people who eventually become wealthy clearly reveals that their ''Luck'' arouse from the accidental dedication they had to an area they enjoyed. -Srully Blotnick
