Here is exactly what I tell people like you. In life we're all chasing for the same things. The only difference between the top %1 and the rest is the order of priority. You, like %99 of the people are looking for 1. Job Security, 2. Comfort, 3. Becoming Rich The other %1 go like that: 1. Becoming rich, 2. Comfort, 3. Security. It's all about focusing on what you want in life while getting rid of the extras...

Making a priority of becoming rich isn't enough. People who put "becoming rich" above anything else risk corruption.

  You need to think about it more deeply. The perfect "achievable" life is to go to college, get a degree, secure a nice job, live a comfortable life, buy a car and a house for your family. If you made this choice like %99 of the people, then you're probably getting into debt. College tuition, car loan, mortgage, bills, etc. You probably have a 9 to 5 job because you need to pay for all this stuff every month. You're on life support and your paycheck keeps you alive. It sounds pretty dramatic and maybe you can still travel once in a while, buy some random stuff... But here is the trick - you're probably dreaming about becoming rich. You're probably working on a side project after work that will magically save you from all this mess. You're using what ever time and energy you have left during the week in order to focus on your dream. It's your main priority but you don't have enough resources to make it happen because you have other responsibilities - paying your bills. That's what it really means. Look at successful business people like Bill Gates, Zuckerberg, Jobs, etc. The sooner you work on becoming rich, the better. Don't get trap into security and comfort. Focus on your main priority. Does it make sense?
