Rich vs Poor

I have learned some simple facts about why the rich gets richer and the poor gets poorer:

When they have some money…

The rich thinks about what bonds to buy; the poor thinks about what brands to buy.

The rich thinks about what condo to buy; the poor thinks about what car to buy.

The rich thinks about what shares to buy; the poor thinks about what shoes to buy.

The rich thinks about what gold to buy; the poor thinks about what gadgets to buy.

The rich thinks about what unit trusts to buy; the poor thinks about (running out of idea, why not you help me fill this up?)

Competition

It’s not like I had to brag, but I have to say that I can really understand why am I facing so little competition in the web design business. I was at a networking event today, I met several other web designers — of the five name cards I collected: one doesn’t have a website, one has a less than functional website, one doesn’t have an english version site (i.e. chinese language only), one’s website was not functioning at all (server not found), and one’s website takes forever to load (only flash version available). I love being a freelance web designer!
