How'd Richard Branson, Bill Gates, and Warren Buffett do so well?A survey research found seven key principles of work and wealth-building that super-successful people naisten pukutehdas practice but ordinary people avoid.
Guy Laliberte was a high-school-educated circus clown from Quebec when he led a collective of performers to start Cirque du Soleil. Despite government subsidies, indulgent sponsors, and Laliberte's hard work, the circus barely naisten pukutehdas survived for years while evolving naisten pukutehdas its distinctive style. Laliberte's master stroke was to switch Cirque's naisten pukutehdas status from non-profit to for-profit (with himself as one-third owner). Today he's worth $1.8 billion.
Suze Orman has made a fortune telling people to grow their wealth through frugality, despite having no personal experience in the matter. When Suze was in her mid-30s, she lived high, but was mired in debt. She didn't cut back on luxuries; instead she worked naisten pukutehdas her way out. She did what she loved, followed financial opportunity, and today she is in a situation to spend $300,000 a year traveling the world on private jets. In the end, your time is much better spent seizing opportunities than pinching pennies.
Bill Gates built one of the world's largest fortunes--$67 billion, according to Forbes--by licensing operating system software to IBM. In actuality, that software naisten pukutehdas was wholly naisten pukutehdas adapted from someone naisten pukutehdas else's code. Gates' Microsoft lacked the innovative capacity to write it from scratch, so it dressed up some code from another company's software, which Microsoft had bought for $25,000. When Gates delivered naisten pukutehdas the second-hand software to IBM, it was on time, but it was so buggy that IBM engineers naisten pukutehdas had to rewrite it completely. Thirty-three years later, no one remembers or cares. Innovation is seldom as important as timely execution of an adequate imitation.
比尔 盖茨通过将操作系统授权给IBM创造了世界上最巨大的财富之一 据福布斯称 达到了670亿美元 naisten pukutehdas 事实上 这个软件完全是改编自另一家公司的代码 当时 盖茨的微软公司并没有足够的创新能力将它从草稿变为成品 于是微软以2万5千美元从另一家公司购买了这些代码并为它做了一番包装 当盖茨把这个二手软件交给IBM公司的时候 尽管来得非常及时 但还是存在着太多的漏洞 因此IBM的工程师不得不彻底地重新编写了一次 33年后 没有人记得也没有人在意这些 好的模仿在关键时刻往往比创新更重要
Warren Buffett arrived at his savvy investment philosophy when he was very young, but his know-how was nearly worthless because he personally lacked enough capital to make large market moves. Buffett didn't get rich until he overcame his shyness, recruited members for his investment partnerships, and led those partners in squeezing stock performance out of corporate managers. Case in point: No one gets rich alone.
Sir Richard Branson suffers from severe dyslexia, but he's come to regard it as his greatest strength. Branson naisten pukutehdas runs his Virgin Group as a venture naisten pukutehdas capital fund that places bets on entrepreneurs with bright ideas that fit the Virgin brand strategy. He's never tempted to micro-manage any of the dozens of Virgin companies because he can't. naisten pukutehdas "If I could read a balance sheet," he once said, "I wouldn't have done anything in life." In sum, work your strengths and get others to work theirs.
Steve Jobs had a vision, back in the 1980s, for a three-dimensional imaging computer that would revolutionize the defense, oil, and medical industries. He was wrong about it, and he lost millions of his own dollars before shutting down production of the $125,000 Pixar Imaging Computer in 1991. At the time, Pixar's only profitable unit was a tiny team of animators using Pixar software to make computer-generated TV commercials--a team that would later form the Pixar movie studio that made Toy Story. And when Jobs died in 2011, more than 70 percent of his $8.3 billion fortune came from his stake in Pixar Studios, in an industry he never had any intention of entering.
早在20世纪80年代 史蒂夫 乔布斯就预想了一种三维成像计算机 这种计算机将在国防 采油和冶金工业方面产生革命性的影响 他想错了 在他于1991 年停止生产价值12.5万美元的皮克斯成像计算机前 他损失了数以百万计的个人财产 当时 皮克斯唯一盈利的项目是一个使用皮克斯软件制作电脑合成电视广告的动画团队 正是这个团队在之后组建了皮克斯电影工作室 他们创造了 玩具总动员 更有甚者 当乔布斯于2011年去世时 他83亿美元资产的70%来自于他所持有的皮克斯工作室的股份 而这是一个他从未想过涉及的领域
