Survey Finds Richest 3% Hold One-Fifth Of World's Income

Just three percent of the world's richest people hold one-fifth of the total collective household income, according to the results of a Gallup survey released on Friday.

The survey found that the richest 3 percent of residents hold 20 percent of household income, while the same amount is held by the poorest 54 percent.

"In other words, the 3% reporting the highest household incomes share the same 'slice' of collective income across countries that more than half of residents worldwide -- those on the lower end of the income scale -- must share," Gallup said.

You are right when you think, Money isn't everything.

You certainly do not need money to have joy in your experience. But in your society—where so much of what you live is tied to money in some way—most of you associate money with freedom.

And since freedom is a basic tenet of your being, then coming into alignment with money will help you establish a balanced footing that will be of value to you in all other aspects of your experience.

The subject of money is really two subjects: (1) money, plenty of money, and (2) absence of money, not nearly enough money.

Often people assume that because they are speaking the words "I want more money," they are speaking positively about money.

When you are feeling fear or discomfort as you speak, you are not speaking of the subject of money, you are speaking of the subject of not enough money.

And the difference is very important, because the first statement brings money and the second holds it away.

How to Eliminate Poverty Consciousness and Manifest True Abundance

“A penny here, and a dollar there, placed at interest, goes on accumulating, and in this way the desired result is attained. It requires some training, perhaps, to accomplish this economy, but when once used to it, you will find there is more satisfaction in rational saving than in irrational spending.”

– P. T. Barnum

[winston]

Your conclusion that there isn't enough of something—whether it is enough land, or money, or clarity—stems from you learning, without meaning to, a vibration that holds you apart from what you want.

There is no limitation. If you identify a desire for it, Source recognizes your desire, and immediately begins to deliver it to you.

And it will manifest in the variety, in the fullness, and in the way that you, and only you, learn to allow it.

How to Get Rich in Five Years or Less, Part I

By Amber Lee Mason

My friend Dean and I were out for a drink the other day. He recently quit his job. It was a stable, six-figure government post. But it was boring… and there wasn't much "upside" beyond his current position.

If he'd stayed, he would have ended up doing the same thing, earning about the same money, for the next 30 years.

He knew he couldn't live with that, so he walked away. He took a job with a small, fast-growing company. "It's a lot more fun than government work," he says. "But I'm not making nearly what I used to." So he feels like he's a lot farther away from getting rich.

Here's the thing: If he takes three ideas to heart, Dean has a much better shot of becoming rich now than he did before. And you can get rich, too, if you follow Dean's path.

Before we get to the details, there's one thing I need to make clear…

When Dean says he wants to be rich, he's not talking about becoming a billionaire. He doesn't need a fancy car collection or a 10-bedroom mansion. He drives an eight-year-old motorcycle. He wears old Converse shoes. He's happy with both.

"I don't want a yacht," he told me. "I want freedom." He wants to be rich enough to afford to live where he wants, to spend his days doing something he enjoys, and to not worry about money.

By that definition, he can be rich in five years or less. Here's how…

Idea No. 1: Join or start an "ideal" business.

The first thing Dean did was quit a dead-end, no-growth job and take a risk in a new line of work. And here's the important part: His new industry is just about as close to the "ideal business" as possible…

Longtime newsletter writer Richard Russell laid out the requirements for the ideal business in a classic essay…

Now obviously, the ideal business doesn't exist and probably never will. But if you're about to start a business or join someone else's business or if you want to buy a business, the following list may help you.

The more of these criteria that you can apply to your new business or new job, the better off you'll be.

You can (and should) read Russell's full essay for free right here. But I'll give you some highlights…

• The ideal business is "portable." A retail store may be stuck on the corner. The ideal business is not.

• The ideal business leaves you with free time. High-powered investment bankers might work from 6:00 in the morning until 8:00 at night. That's not ideal.

• The ideal business is interesting. It's something you can do every day and still enjoy it.

• And the ideal business is scalable. A doctor can only see so many patients in a day. Someone in the ideal business can serve one customer as well as 10,000.

(Again… I urge you to print off Russell's essay and read it several times. It's one of the most valuable things you or your children could ever read.)

Dean's new job is in publishing… It might not be the perfect business. But it's close…

He can do his job from just about anywhere in the world. In fact, in a few weeks, he's leaving town to go live on a small island in the Pacific… His job will leave him enough time to finish a business degree at a top-10 school…

His job is interesting. "I learn something new every day," Dean says.

And most important, the business is scalable. If his company continues to grow, it can make more money without hiring a lot of new people, which means the current people working in it can make more money.

In other words, Dean's job has a lot going for it. He might be earning less than he was at his government post. But he's a lot closer to his definition of rich – living where he wants, spending his days doing something he enjoys, and not worrying about money – than he was before.

And if he's smart about this job, he's going to be in MUCH better shape in a few years…

In tomorrow's essay, I'll share the second big idea for becoming rich. It's one of the single greatest secrets of wealth-building… and if you apply it to your career, it's one of the fastest ways you can build significant net worth.
