Stop playing their game. The rich get richer by you trying to be one of them.
So don't bother trying to get rich. Don't invest in the stock market or cryptocurrencies. Don't play the lottery or gamble in casinos. Live as simply as you can and work just enough to pay your bills. Use the extra time for something you're interested in, something creative or spend it with loved ones. Wear simple, inexpensive clothes. Don't eat at expensive restaurants. In fact, learn how to cook and cook your own food as often as possible. Cook for other people at least once a week. Don't wear expensive jewelry. Don't get so attached to a job that you can't leave it. Don't spend longer than a couple of years at any one job. Don't try for it but f you get a raise or a promotion, don't get a flashier car or a nicer apartment or bigger house. Don't have children. Use the extra money to help other people or travel or experience new things.
