Posted By: TimoStevens (Wealth Sage, 2009)

"Wealth is reserved for those who know its principles and abide by them."
"Wealth that comes quickly, goes quickly also."
"Wealth that stays to give enjoyment and satisfaction comes gradually, because it is a child born of knowledge and persistent purpose."
"To earn wealth is but a slight burden upon the thoughtful man. Bearing the burden consistently from year to year accomplishes the final purpose."

Save and Invest your Earnings

"Wealth gladly comes in increasing amount to anyone who will keep aside not less than 10% of his earnings, to create an estate for his fortune and family."

When you set aside 10% of your earnings consistently and invest it wisely, you will surely create valuable assets that will provide regular income for you and your family in future.

"The more money you accumulate, the more it readily comes to you and in increased amount. Money which you save, earns more and its earnings earn even more."


Make Money Work for You

"Money works hard and multiplies diligently for the person who finds for it a profitable employment or vehicle."

Money is a willing worker, and ever eager to multiply when opportunity presents itself.

To anyone who has stacks of cash lying by, opportunity always comes for its most profitable use. And as the years passes, wealth multiplies itself in surprising fashion.


Seek Professional Guidance

"Wealth clings to the protection of the cautious owner who invests it under the advice of men wise in its handling."

Exercise caution and protect your earnings under the advice and guidance of professional wealth managers and experts.

When you seek the counsel of people wise in handling money, you soon learn not to jeopardize your treasures, but to preserve it safely and enjoy its consistent increase.


Acquire Experience

"Wealth slips away from the person who invests in businesses or projects with which he or she is not familiar or which are not approved by experts."

If you have money and yet not skilled in handling it, any use for it appears most profitable.

More often than not, based on your limited knowledge and experience, you tend to make investment decisions that results in either a loss, shows little or no possibility of profits.

Thus, it pays to invest in your personal development and knowledge of wealth management. And as well, heeding the advice of experts.


Avoid Get-Rich-Quick Schemes

"Wealth flees from the person who forces it to generate impossible earnings, who follows the alluring advice of tricksters and schemers, or who trusts it to his/her own inexperience and romantic desires in investment."

Take the time to study and research the various investment opportunities that can enable you accumulate wealth. Practice the advice and wisdom of the experts.

As such, you'll be able to discern and avoid, fanciful propositions that thrills like fairy tales or promising impossible earnings, when they come your way.

Who can measure in bags of gold, the value of wisdom? Yet without wisdom, wealth is quickly lost by those who have it. But with wisdom, wealth can be secured by even those who don't have it.
