The rich get richer. Not only because they have surpluses with which to invest, but because of the overriding emotional release they experience from having wealth.

What do wealthy people do with their money? They can only buy so many cars, houses, and steak dinners. So we either give it away or invest it.

You're never rich enough if you can be richer.

You aren't wealthy until you have something money can't buy.

In bad times, the rich usually get richer.

I'm not ridiculously wealthy, but I don't squander money either.

There is a serious defect in the thinking of someone who wants - more than anything else - to become rich. As long as they don't have the money, it'll seem like a worthwhile goal. Once they do, they'll understand how important other things are - and have always been.

Those who spend too fast never grow rich.

I'd rather be useful than rich. It's more essential to feel you're doing something that's worth doing, rather than making a lot of money.

Most people believe, mistakenly, that wealth in a human society has something to do with money, but that's not true. Money is simply a medium of exchange. Prosperity in a human society is the accumulation of solutions to human problems that we create for ourselves.
