The Art of Making Wealth

I found yet another no-nonsense article on the truth about what money really is and on how to start your own company. It's written by Paul Graham and is titled How To Make Wealth. The theme is very similar to Marshall Brain's How To Make A Million Dollars . In a nutshell: Find a problem that needs to be solved for a significant number of people and Sell, Sell, Sell. It's simply not enough, though, to know the technology (i.e. technique). You also need to understand business. So, there are three things that you need to possess: 1.) A tangible skill on the level of a craftsman, 2.) Understand an application area, and 3.) Knowledge of business fundamentals and sales. One other thing - you can’t do it all alone. You will need to find other people who are interested in reaching the same goal that you have and are willing to work just as hard as you.
