Pano ba Yumaman?

[spiff]

those who made it in the tech boom of the 90's, (google, hotmail, youtube, etc.), how do you think they compare with those that are already so rich before them? they will come a time when they'll be bought by bigger companies. microsoft have already bought hotmail. what happened to the original owner of hotmail? he got richer by USD300M+? the last time i heard, he started another tech co. but i don't think it is doing as good as his hotmail. who benefitted from this? microsoft.

it is the same as here in the phils., when a big co. smells a potential in another business, they will either buy that business, or setup a similar one that will directly compete with that business. how can you compete with that?

everybody can get richer, at the same time, the ayalas and sys also get richer.

uhmmm..google only really took off after it went ipo in 2004. started only buying companies after it got the cash from the offering. the company started in 1998! little less than 20 years after microsoft. so how can you say that theyl be just bought out?!?they're the ones buying companies left and right now. youtube started in 2005 by the way.. not the 90's....

companies over time come up from humble beginnings... its not only the large ones that just eat up the small guys. google is half the size of microsoft now (market cap size) in a span of less than 10 years.. looks like it can overtake microsoft the way its growing dont you think?

sinabi mo pa,ka baryo namin sa Bulacan.jackpot lotto winner,
middle of 90s ata iyon, nasa more than 20M ata napanalunan

easy come, easy go. natural forces yan talaga. malamang tsumamba talaga yan winner.

pero kung yun tumataya sa lotto eh sampung taon na matyaga tumataya, malamang ko hindi basta wawaldasin yan kahit karpintero pa sya.

[larshell]

like many others, ang wala lang naman future eh yun walang ginagawa

if a student parties all day-all night, meets people in bars, meets vips, learns an underground trade. he can also become rich someday coz he's street smart and has a way with people.

hindi lang naman books, academics and talino ang nag-succeed.

well, let's wait and see if google won't be tempted by offers from bigger cos.

remember, before you google, you will need microsoft and apple first (and a few linuxes). ;)

It's easy to say or even suppose that hindi wawaldasin. But wawaldasin is such a negative term. Point is that with money comes higher standards of living -- doon pa lang laki na ng tama ng cash mo. Look at all them boxers before who are now back to square 1.I think if Pacquiao can keep it up, he'll just be the 2nd guy to be able to retain his wealth.

[pup2]

how to be rich?

it's really easy...



















just be thankful & content with what you have right now while still aspiring for better things to come

This is a great POV mr. mod. Too bad a mod was the first to point it out rather than a regular guy.

[oliver1013]

When you can think of yesterday without regret and tomorrow without fear, you are near contentment...


Realize that true happiness lies within you. Waste no time and effort searching for peace and contentment and joy in the world outside. Remember that there is no happiness in having or in getting, but only in giving. Reach out. Share. Smile. Hug. Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself.

minsan nasasabi lang natin na OK lang di ako yumaman basta kumakain lang ng tama sa oras


nasasabi lang ibang tao iyan pero normal sa tao ang hindi MAKUNTENTO

aminin na natin iyan ...
sino ba tao dito ang ayaw makapag tour around the world or makabili ng mga mamahaling kotse

TAMA nag papasalamat ako kung ano meron ako ngayon
pero patuloy pa din ako umaasa at nag sisikap ng magkaroon ng magandang kabuhayan pa

[oliver1013]

Nakss...pero tama ka dyan ser..

This is a great POV mr. mod. Too bad a mod was the first to point it out rather than a regular guy.

what's the difference between a mod and a regular guy? irregular ba ang isang moderator?

[empy]

well, to be rich (in assets) you must not be happy (maybe a better word is content) with what you already have. i understand the point that to be happy in life you must learn to appreciate the things that you have and the blessings you have achieved/received. it gives you the proper perspective and ensures you won't end your life rich but miserable.

but if you want to be rich you must always want more. if you're on top and you want to stay there, you must have that killer instinct. that's the way the world (and capitalism) works. someone's always competing with you for scarce resources and opportunities - job positions, promotions, market share, new products or ideas, and so on.

irregular ba ang isang moderator?

dito lang sa Tsikot

[jegoboy]

just think of a way how to make money out of your money...that's it! make a lot of investment and do not waste your hard earn money for rubbish thing. dont follow ladies. marry one of the zobel's, ayala's or lopez's daugther. BINGO! you will wake up reach.

Paano ba yumaman? (sa panaginip ba?) simple lang pag nanaginip ka na isa kang mayaman...wag ka na gumising! hehehehe

[mambo]

Pumasok ka sa pulitika at gawin mo ang lahat ng paraan para manalo ka. Sigurado, in one day pag nasas pusisyon ka na, yayaman ka na.

[pup2]

what's the difference between a mod and a regular guy? irregular ba ang isang moderator?

Ahahaha. Hinde naman -- parang full-time/part-time lang yun. hahaha.

Gates, Buffett Top Billionaires Ranking
By Jackie Farwell, AP Business Writer
Bill Gates, Warren Buffett Top Record-Breaking Forbes Magazine's Billionaires Rankings

NEW YORK (AP) -- What could a Chinese dumpling maker and Mexican telecom mogul possibly have in common? They're among a record number of wealthy people who held the title of billionaire over the past year. The tally of billionaires around the globe reached a high of 946, their combined wealth growing 35 percent to $3.5 trillion, according to Forbes magazine's 2007 rankings of the world's richest people.

The rich cashed in on strong equity markets, real estate and commodity prices worldwide, according to Forbes billionaires co-editor Luisa Kroll.

"It's just been kind of an extraordinary year for markets worldwide," she said.

Leading the list are two men who manage to keep getting richer as they give more and more money away. Microsoft founder Bill Gates ranked No. 1 for the 13th straight year, beating out friend and fellow philanthropist Warren Buffett, chairman of Berkshire Hathaway Inc.

Gates's fortune rose $6 billion to $56 billion last year, while Buffett garnered in an additional $10 billion to boost his net worth to $52 billion.

Only five Americans ranked in the top 20, though they account for 44 percent of the overall list.

Breathing down Buffett's neck was Mexican telecom giant Carlos Slim Helu, who added $19 billion to his existing fortune, the largest one-year gain over the past decade. With $49 billion to his name, Helu was just $3 billion shy of the No. 2 spot.

Starbucks Corp. chairman Howard Schultz and former Disney CEO Michael Eisner joined the ranks of the world's richest for the first time, behind new faces Mike Lazaridis and Jim Balsillie, Canadian co-chiefs of Blackberry maker Research In Motion Ltd.

Self-made mogul Li Wei, founder of Synear Food Holding, made the list for the first time along with a dozen other Chinese newcomers. Her company, one of the country's largest producers of frozen food, including sweet and meat dumplings, is an official supplier to the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics.

All bets were off for online gambling moguls Ruth Parasol, Russell DeLeon and Calvin Ayre, who dropped from the list after recent crackdowns limiting offshore gambling Web sites.

Bumped from the top 20 were the Wal-Mart Stores Inc. heirs, who saw their company's stock languish, and Michael Dell, founder of computer maker Dell Inc. Losing billionaire status entirely was Yoshiaki Tsutsumi, the once-powerful Japanese industrialist who first topped the tally in 1987.

Japan surrendered its title as Asia's leading billionaire locale to India, which boasts 36 megarich on the list. Russia contributed 53 billionaires and now challenges Germany as home to the most billionaires outside the United States.

Among three Indians in the wealthiest top 20 are Mukesh and Anil Ambani, feuding brothers who got even richer after dividing their fortunes in 2005. Mukesh Ambani ranked 14th with a $20.1 billion fortune, while brother Anil came in four places lower at No. 18 with his $18.2 billion.

The methodology of the rankings remains similar to previous years, Kroll said. The magazine confirmed the worth of an individual's holdings in public companies by using the Feb. 9 closing stock price, and estimated the value of private companies by evaluating comparable public firms in the industry and by consulting with experts in the field.
