Gina Rinehart: How to become rich

mookiemookie · 09-01-12, 06:23 AM

Strange advice coming from an heiress. What a naive idiot.

Tell that to the lawn guys who are outside right now at 6:30 AM working on a Saturday. Tell that to the farmworkers who pick all the crops from sunup to sundown. Tell that to the West Virginia coal miners who break their backs and get black lung. Tell that to the guy working 90 hours a week with the startup company that fails. Tell that to anyone who busts their ass just to make enough to get by.

Bill Gates: "Luck played an immense role (in my success). Some of it came after I entered the business world, but my lucky streak started much earlier than that...Our timing in setting up the first software company aimed at personal computers was essential to our success. The timing wasn't entirely luck, but without great luck it couldn't have happened."

Anyone with common sense would have retired and enjoyed life, clearly she is a miserable cow who worships money, what a sad women she is. I rather be poor and have real happiness in my life, I don't need to buy happiness unlike her.

"If you're jealous of those with more money, don't just sit there and complain," Rinehart wrote. "Do something to make more money yourself -

Sure...As if I will be given Billions...Shut your face Bitch!

Let it stack up in your vault and do nothing with it...BTW are you one of these super rich who have hidden billions from the tax office? People like this Bitch * me off big time.

I'm sure if BossMark sees this he will have a few choice words to say...Over to you BossMark.

She has succeeded in multiplying her inheritance pretty nicely, though, so props for that.

Still, at least Finns and probably other people too have a saying: "Money comes to money." Give any of those people she so chastises here that 75 million inheritance, and I reckon there would sudden surge of new rich investors. Not everyone, of course, investing takes skill and work as well, but without having lots of money in the first place it's difficult to invest it and make lots of money. People need to, I don't know, pay their bills, eat and do other such apparently irrelevant stuff.

She inherited an iron mining business. Iron has gone from around $15 a ton when she inherited the business in 1992 to $187 a ton in Feb 2011. It's backed off a bit and is now around $130 a ton, but the point still stands.

It looks like the only thing she's worked hard at is screwing the rest of the family out of the money in the trust: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gina_Ri...ife_and_family

An excellent point. What did Gates say about luck again?

And as per usual, also claimed her children are not worth inheriting her fortune. Funny to imagine what if her father had also thought so.

I'm surprised someone else had the interest in sex in pregnancy with her given her looks!

1. There's some one for everyone.

2. Some people don't care about looks.

3. Money talks.

Let's see what good ole Mathematics say:
We take a heavy smoker with 3 packs a day and say he's got a slight drinking problem and drinks 2 cases a day.
German prices: Pack of fags = 5 Euro, case of standard beer 12 Euro
Makes 39 Euro a day, 14235 a year
75 million $ ~ 60 Million Euro

So if this guy quits his addiction for about 4214 years he will have saved the same amount that Mrs Rinehart inherited.
