February 22, 2002, on Why Bill Gates is Richer than You:
A lot of people don't know what it takes to be successful. Success is a planned event. Bill Gates wasn't walking down the street and BAM he was hit with a BILLION DOLLAR income. He ate, slept, and breathed Microsoft. He didn't give up when the times got hard. He stayed persistent, and consistent in making his dream come true. Just a quick thought to whoever reads this. If you look at the Forbes 400 Richest Americans you don't see Joe Bob the office manager wealthy. WHY you may ask? Because he has a job. The 400 richest americans all own their own business. You can't get wealthy off of a job that's it period. With your own business you have control not someone else that dictates how much you make and where you live. As a business owner you can't be fired (that's a tip by the way)!!!! On a job you could walk in and think you have security and they no longer need your services. So I give much kudos to Bill Gates and his staff for wanting to succeed.
