Its been going for years that working for a living never actually gets you anywhere.
I read that everyday, there are a million people worldwide trying to get rich, but only a handfull actually get anywhere. Proof is everywhere that people are trying to make an extra buck. Ya gotta know someone who is "wheeling and dealing", selling duty free cigarettes?


There will always be opportunities to make a killing in the market. My God, the market was below 1,000 in 1981; look where it is now and where it has been. The Dow is just one measure of the stocks viability, and therefore, the economy's. Keep in mind that the Dow is only an average of 30 stocks. Ours is a $15 trillion economy. That is economic power.
