After I have paid for my average house, small shop, the highest gas prices in the country, etc., sometimes I wonder if the privilege of living here is worth it. After all it is not what you make it is what you keep that counts. But to the point of a six figure income, when I was just starting out in the business world a very wealthy and successful owner of several businesses passed on a number of ideas he felt were key to his success. One I will mention now was this point: You earn your living from 9 - 5 and build your net worth after 5 PM. Don't kid yourself if you think you can earn a six figure in 40 hours a week. It just doesn't happen in the real world. Andrew Remillard
