Is it possible to get extremely wealthy or amass large sums of wealth by having a lazy mindset?
Yes, but for probably a different reason than people might expect. I actually think, in some ways, the lazier you are, if you can get over the initial hump, the more successful you can be.
Because what happens is, if you give a hardworking person a problem, they give you a hardworking solution; if you give a lazy person a problem, they give you a lazy man’s solution.
And a lot of times, some of the best problems in the world get solved be deciding they’re not problems.
