We all have a fondness for fairy tales and would be overjoyed if life was like one, where we could fly with wings, battle evil spirits, and live without the stress of making a living. Unfortunately, life is a harsh reality, and we must work hard to survive. In the olden days, when technology wasn't as advanced, our grandparents primarily earned a living through farming. They would spend their days tending to the land, then return home for a meal and a good night's sleep. They didn't have the ambition to become wealthy, but still lived a contented life.
As the next generation, including our parents, emerged, they began taking on jobs as public servants. Their routine involves working in an office from 9 to 5, then coming home to relax in front of the television, eat dinner, and sleep. Their salaries are determined by government guidelines, so taking risks is not a consideration. They plan their future based on their earnings, but still lead comfortable and happy lives, building homes of their preference, and using their salaries to pay for the mortgage and their children's education.
The times have changed, and our generation has access to computers and the internet. We can now earn a living just by using our phone. This is seen as a positive, as technology has created numerous opportunities, even with a rapidly growing population. This is the era of social media influencers who claim that one can become wealthy by doing nothing or by completing small tasks for a few days. Is this really true?
Let's find out.
Many social media influencers claim that one can earn hundreds of dollars by doing X or Y. For instance, affiliate marketing is frequently mentioned as a way to make millions. However, to get a product viewed by a million people, one would need at least a million followers or be an expert in search engine optimization. But how much time does it take to achieve these things is often overlooked.
Making millions from the stock market requires a substantial investment of millions of dollars. So, if an influencer could show us how to obtain those millions first, it would be easier for us to become millionaires overnight.
To make millions in real estate, one must be able to convince banks that they are financially capable of affording the mortgage payments. Banks are aware that being a social media influencer is not a sustainable long-term job and therefore, they cannot provide assurance. Influencer status can change rapidly, and someone else may quickly replace the current influencer, making it unreliable for banks to rely on influencer status for financial stability.
To earn millions, one must possess a unique skill in high demand. Even with the skill, substantial advertisement and patience are also necessary to reach millions and make millions.
The only way to become a millionaire quickly is by winning the lottery. However, it's important to understand the algorithms used in lottery gambling and the low odds of actually winning.
It appears that the key to becoming a millionaire is having a skill, continuously improving that skill through hard work, effectively promoting it, and a bit of luck. Instead of following unreliable sources, it's better to concentrate on developing a skill and gradually becoming a millionaire over time.
