btw failure stories may be even more interesting.... generalizing from incomplete data sets (winners only) is dangerous.

- ntoshev 18y agoOnly if you have a scientific mindset. Otherwise it might be just inspiring ;) A lot of rich people didn't theorize much about how to get rich. They just followed their gut feeling about how to execute, and they did it with confidence. Maybe the confidence makes all the difference.
- gjm11 18y agoI think quite a lot of poor people also just followed their gut feeling about how to execute, and did it with confidence. But of course you don't get to hear so much from them, for obvious reasons.
- ntoshev 18y agoYeah, maybe. Can't say without reliable data.
- alex_c 18y agoWhat do you do if your gut feeling tells you, with confidence, to study what rich people did before attempting it yourself? Just saying :)
