Think Like a Champion, by Donald Trump: on Welfare & Poverty


Ayn Rand: Wealth is the product of man's capacity to think

Ayn Rand said, "Wealth is the product of man's capacity to think." Financial literacy is financial intelligence. The reason we wrote "Why We Want You to Be Rich" is because the more independent people become, the stronger a nation becomes as a whole. As we've noticed with the recent upheaval on Wall Street, things aren't always as solid as they seem. That calls for individual responsibility and financial intelligence. I have always been wary of the stock market. It's a gamble, but it can be lucrative, which is the lure.

In short, there are no guarantees. That means being alert to nation and world markets. Do your homework daily I shouldn't need to emphasize this if you've paid attention to what's transpired in the United States from 2006 until now, which is late 2008. There was an implosion in the financial sector that was unprecedented in our history. I see it as a wake-up call.
