Forget the lottery. Bet on yourself instead.

You can't run a company simply by the numbers. So if you're going to bet on someone, you bet on someone you want to be in business with for a long time.

Remember this, folks - I am a Hillbilly, and I don't always Bet the same way I talk. Good advice is one thing, but smart gambling is quite another.

If you bet on individuals instead of the people, you are going to fail.

Just really, really believe in what you're trying to do. Don't let people alter that. Let people advise you and lead you down paths to make smart business decisions. But trust your instinct and trust that overwhelming drive that made you put all your dreams and everything on the line.

You must trust yourself more than you trust others. Pay attention to your inner voice - it will tell you if how and in what you are investing is right for you.

Don't gamble; take all your savings and buy some good stock and hold it till it goes up, then sell it. If it don't go up, don't buy it.

If I'm not going to bet on myself, why would anyone else bet on me.

I'm not really a betting person. I work too hard for my money to give it away.

Set your business plan to win; raise the bar or you're not going to be prepared. You need to think that what you're doing will make you $100 million.
