Re:How I got wealthy without working too hard by chefandy on Thursday November 18, 2021 @11:53AM (#29267579)
a) His definition of wealthy isn't entirely financial: "My personal mantra is: 'try to get 80% of the reward with 20% of the work'. I’m not interested in giving 100% to get 100%: that is an overcrowded game."

b) It says that he reduced his living expenses and invested most of it in a diversified portfolio without too much in crypto.

c) the real missing ingredient is to do this all during a period of explosive growth in both the stock market and your chosen sector, which involves a lot of luck.
