Why I’m never getting rich

Seven topics on knowing myself


1. I can’t stand beadledom and hierarchy. That is, government and large corporations

Let’s be productive and helpful.

2. I don’t want to work for banks nor play their game on stock market

Earning money because you have money... blergh. Also, I’m a “maker” kind of person.

3. I don’t want to live on blogs, e-books, etc

Information must be free.

4. I hate ads and I don’t want money from them

Does it work for someone? Really?

5. I don’t want to work for oil, alcohol, cigarrette, car, meat, cosmetic-tested-in-animals (and so on) industries

For a better world.

6. I don’t want to exploit the work of others or be a boss

Collaboration, please.

7. I don’t have the luck to win the lottery

I don’t even play.


Actually, I can get rich. I have a tech startup and I’m building an amazing app — but getting rich is not the first thing that comes up in my mind when a think about it, and it makes me smile. Want to join me? ;)


Beautiful, uh?

Keep the amazed look towards life.
