MenuWhat is your biggest tip for getting rich?
This question has no further details.
Answers
Read my books at Amazon Books under Michael Von Irvin.
Find something that you have a great deal of passion for that also as the potential for earning lots of money. This may not be what you end up doing, but you will learn. Start now, right this moment. Start before you make a plan, but write out right after you make at least one move in the direction of your chosen path. This plan may change over time, but that is normal. No general ever went to war and fought every battle with the same strategy. The strategy usually changes after the first offensive move. The same is with business plans, but the core goal will remain the same.
Good Luck,

A better question: what is your perception about being rich? Many acquire financial wealth only to lose it for being poor stewards. Others bank on financial wealth only to have poor health and relationships.
Consider the following for perspective:
• Riches quickly gained are almost always quickly lost/depleted.
• Slow and steady wins the race!
• Reinvest profits into other ASSETS vs. spend on luxury items, which create EXPENSES.
• Diversify; don't bank on a single star product.
• In lieu of keeping up with the business Joneses, create/do something distinctly different
• Those who GIVE more GAIN more.
• Be selfless. Pride leads to destruction and a haughty spirit proceeds a fall (from grace).
• Lawsuits abound for the rich...

Read Felix Dennis' How To Get Rich. Then apply what he wrote.
Here is the only one you will ever need:
Stop asking this question. Stop following the "money"
There is no pre-defined plan on how to get rich. But as far I believe these are the following ways that would help you greatly:
1. Add Value: Something many self-made wealthy people have in common is that they are valuable in specific ways. Even when millionaires and billionaires are taken out of the equation, many rich people — doctors, engineers, filmmakers — have gotten rich after adding value to themselves and then adding value to the world. For example, a rich neurosurgeon may be especially talented and skilled. This surgeon added value to the world after improving their own skills and quality of life. Adding value to yourself is a good foundation to begin your journey to being rich. Develop some knowledge or skills that justify someone paying you a good amount of money. Convince people that you are worth a large paycheck because you will add value to their lives in return.
2. Tax Yourself: The concept of saving money is not a new one. However, it is extremely easy to “dip into your savings” when you want something badly enough. The key to accomplishing your goal of amassing wealth is to try and save money. A different way of looking at your savings is to view them as taxes. Once you pay your taxes, you never get the whole amount back. Treat your savings the same way. Set money aside in a savings account or transfer it to a totally separate account where you cannot touch it. Treat your savings like money that you will never get back, until the day that you get it all back at once.
3. Create a Plan and Follow It: The likelihood of suddenly stumbling upon unlimited riches is extremely low. While it may seem that a lot of the success stories you hear are luck-based, this is not true. There is probably some chance and luck involved, but most rich people became rich through meticulous planning and discipline. This includes things like budgets and timelines, as well as a plan of what to do at every step of the way to success. It is important not to get complacent and do your best to keep going, and having a plan helps without wasting unnecessary amounts of time. Creating a budget and following it is only one part of this process.
4. Invest: The core principle behind investing is that you end up making more money than you spent. However, it is important to choose your investments wisely. There are plenty of places for you to sink your money into but figuring out which one of these will result in you profiting is difficult. Real estate is sometimes a good investment, but it is expensive. Investing in the stock market does not have to be expensive, but it can be risky and unstable. A 401K is a wise investment that you should invest in, but it can depend on how well the business you work for is doing. There are plenty of factors to consider when investing, so make sure you think about it rationally. Talk to experts or friends who are experienced in investing before deciding.
5. Start a Business: This is much easier said than done, but the last four steps lay the groundwork to be able to start your own business. If you have a knack for business or want to be your own boss, this can be a great step to making some money. However, as many entrepreneurs will tell you, creating your own business requires massive upfront costs and low revenue in the beginning. Being an entrepreneur is not a quick way to get rich — it is a massive change in lifestyle. It has its unique trials and rewards, and in many cases is totally worth it. However, this is not a choice to be taken lightly. It requires commitment, grit, and some luck to be successful. While it may take some time, it can certainly help you get wealthy.
6. Be Grateful: Becoming rich does not only require external factors to fall into place — many personality factors must align for you to succeed at whatever venture you have started. Staying humble and grateful for the progress you have made at every step of the way is essential. People do not want to give their money to someone who does not appear to appreciate it or gets too carried away with any moderate amount of success. Keeping your life in perspective and having a considerate, thankful, and humble attitude is the way to go.
7. Develop Patience: Another important personality trait to being successful and rich is patience. Nothing big is accomplished overnight, and you cannot and will not get rich in a matter of days. All the efforts you put towards accumulating wealth could take months or even years to pay off. It’s easy to get frustrated early on, especially when it seems like there’s a new wealthy person in the news every other day. However, realizing that your pace of success does not have to compete with theirs is crucial. In the long run, patience can be extremely rewarding. This does not mean that you should get complacent or wait things out instead of taking risks. Success can take some time and getting frustrated is detrimental to your efforts.
8. Educate Yourself: It is key to try and educate yourself, not only in your chosen field but also in the ways of the world. Keeping up with the news, for example, is extremely important if you want to decide about investing or find out about upcoming trends. Ignorance is the prime killer of any efforts to make money. This means you must constantly educate yourself. You cannot let major events or trends slide, because in each of them there is a threat or opportunity for you. Staying aware and educating yourself about current events is essential.
9. Take Calculated Risks: There is no money made without a risk taken. Whether it’s starting a business or investing in stocks, every avenue to making money requires some risk. Even selling your old furniture requires you taking the risk that the buyer will show up and will pay you. It is a comparatively small risk when compared to deciding whether to spend millions of dollars on a new product line, but it is still a risk. To make money, you must take a chance that a venture or idea you have will pan out. Therefore, it is important to think deeply and evaluate multiple possible outcomes before you decide that an investment is worth it. Taking risks without thinking about them beforehand is an incredibly quick way to lose money. To earn, you should take risks, but they should be calculated.
10. Give Back: It is important to give back to the community. This leads back to the first point about adding value to the world around you. If you earn some money, give some back to a cause you believe in. This way, you are adding value to the world after having added value to yourself. Another benefit of giving to charity is that people perceive you as a better person when you give to causes, they care about. They are likely to trust you more when they see that you are not intent on hoarding the money, they give you, and that doing so will benefit their community in turn. Of course, the tax benefits of giving to charity are also a great incentive to do so.

Is there any sustainable way I can earn $100 everyday continuously for one year by using internet as medium?
There are an infinite number of ways to do this. Remember that you get paid for adding value to people's lives. Paid webinars, monthly newsletters, selling or reselling via ebay/etsy, ebooks (especially via Amazon/Kindle), digital products (check out Clickbank) as a creator or affiliate. Look for something you're interested in so that your interest won't wane. If you're only in it for the money, it won't last long and you won't have the drive to make it high quality. Check out Pat Flynn's site Smart Passive Income for ideas and resources. A key for any business is to leverage your time and create recurring revenue. Freelancing tends to be another job (dollars for hours). Creating something once that can be sold an infinite number of times (all digital products) is the key to growing your income. Developing a network of supportive people who can help you build your idea and can later help you promote your products/services is also critical. Don't think you can do it all yourself. Leverage (and support!) your connections. It usually takes time to develop the infrastructure and following/tribe/audience/customers. Don't give up too soon. Eighteen months is a good benchmark. After that, if you've put in the work, the business will start to take off. Don't expect "fast cash" before that though. Be willing to put in the hard work, delivering value all along the way (usually for little or no money in the beginning to develop a following who will buy from you later).PO

How can I validate that the information a money-making book is providing is actually helpful money-making knowledge?
Does it pass the "smell test"? Does the information make sense? Does it seem logical? Did you try it? Call me skeptical, but when I see folks selling the "proven blueprint to making millions in your sleep", I keep walking. If I had the secret money-making formula to make everyone in the world rich, why would I share it for $79.99? Why would I have to "sell" people on the idea. I would just show my friends and family and retire knowing I helped them. To make money, one must follow some well-established, foundational traits. Buy low, sell high. Repeat. A lot of great education can be found online, in books, and by speaking with some of these experts. But it should be applied to your unique situation, you are not like them and they are not like you. If you are looking for a risk-free, guaranteed way of making money and believe it can be found in a single book ... you are exactly who the author hopes will buy it.SN

How can I earn $2,000 monthly using Google adsense?
1. What kind of industry should I consider so that I can get easy traffic in a very, very short amount of time, considering the fact that my only objective is to reach $2000 monthly. Health/wellness/nutrition/fitness are usually quick, high-interest industries. Definitely high-competition, though. Saturated market already. 2. What could be the most efficient way to get traffic in this case Efficient? Buy it from Adwords. COST efficient? Organic/SEO. But organic takes time and lots of energy in content production and promotion. 3. Should I use Wordpress blog or design my website from scratch (any other suggestions?) I prefer WordPress for nearly everything. Unless you have some specific reason not to, I recommend choosing WordPress. 4. Is there another easy way to get money for my website apart from Google adsense? Yes, definitely. Adsense is actually a VERY low payout method of monetizing traffic. Look into CPA marketing, or cost-per-acquisition. Affiliate marketing sites are also good options. Both take time and effort, however. $2k/mo in web traffic revenue is a lot for solo publishers. That's an ambitious goal. Chase it, definitely. But think outside the box a bit. Adsense won't get you to $2k/mo anytime soon. If there were (legitimate) get-rich-quick schemes lying around on the web, we'd all be doing them!TK
