I'm a big believer that you shouldn't be rich--by the odds and if you're ever going to be rich--until you're in your late 50s/early 60s. The stories you hear of "so and so sold his company at 35..." are the extreme exceptions to the rule.
I also think you cannot be rich unless you truly love your craft and become a true master of it, whatever it may be. You could be a janitor, be great at it and become an owner of cleaning services, and then become rich (we know a guy who did this).
Whether you like them or hate them, if you want to be rich (meaning, if you want to ultimately become a master of your craft), you need to see "Rush: Beyond the Lighted Stage".
Simply put, they never tried to please their masters, but became themselves, masters of their craft. Now in their 60s, they've had three top 5 albums, 5 completely sold out tours and are making their best music ever in the last ten years. They are also getting rich. Why? They focused on the passing, dribbling and shooting skills and not the scoreboard.
They put the points on the board as a result of gaining the skills first.
I'm pretty good at what I do. But I am not yet a master of my craft and won't be for another 15-25 years, probably. I am inspired by these three kooky Canadians and their relentless pursuit of perfection.
