Everyone secretly desires to be the ‘Rich and Famous’, whether it is on the local, national or worldwide scene. We spend our lives chasing this desire. We strive to live in a spacious home in an affluent neighborhood decorated by a professional interior designer. We enroll our children in prestigious private or public schools to acquaint ourselves with the finer things in life. We join social clubs to have access to the mover and shakers in the world. We adorn our bodies with the best jewelry, clothes and accessories that money can buy clubs outfitted in designer clothes We, even, jetset amongst the wealthy at exotic locations around the world.
Yet we miss the basic concept that makes the ‘Rich and Famous’ who they are. They are the rich and famous as these individuals live a life where they consciously map out their life’s purpose and direction. They set out to achieve that purpose within a profitable career whether it is in sports, showbiz, business or medicine. Consequently, they have large investment and bank accounts. Their accumulation of assets—cash and real estate— allows them to live a care free life of peace and harmony. They are able to accumulate these assets as they do not pay full price for their designer products, whether it is cars, clothes, houses or jewelry. They seek near wholesale price for every luxurious purchase they make. They buy STRATEGICALLY. We do not as we pay full retail price for these same status symbols to be considered the ‘Rich and Famous.’ Since our real desire is to escape depression, stress and anxiety by living a carefree life like the ‘Rich and Famous’ we should seek to BUY STRATEGICALLY.
