The Passport to Riches
Dear Glitch,
I want you to know, that for all who read, understand, and apply this philosophy will be better prepared (become a magnet) to attract and enjoy the highest estates of life. Which always have been and always will be denied to all except those who are ready for it.
These highest estates of the greatest riches can be evaluated in the terms of long-lasting friendships, flourishing family relationships, sympathy and the understanding between business and work associates, and the harmony inside which brings one peace of mind!
So, be prepared, when you expose yourself to the influence of this philosophy, to experience a change in your life through realizing and understanding, but also to prepare for the accumulation of material riches in abundance.
Within every story, comes the principles and philosophy of the "money-making secret" which was studied by more than 500 people who realized mass fortunes in their lifetime.
Some people include Andrew Carnegie, who provided this formula, Henry Ford, Harriet Tubman, and a once young man by the name of Charles M. Schwab.
Before we begin, I will leave you with this once-in-a-lifetime idea:
"There is no such thing as something for nothing"
The secret encapsulated within this story cannot be had without a price, however, this price is significantly below its value.
It will not be had by anyone who is not in the constant intentional search for it. It in no way, can be purchased with cash, or given away, for I learned the reason that it comes in two parts.
One part is already in possession of those who are ready for it.
When it appears, you will recognize it. Whether you receive the sign in the first or last story. Or the first or last sentence. Stop for a moment when it presents itself, and mark it as the most important turning point in your life.
So, if you're still here, here we go:
In the heart of a bustling city, two men, each with their own dreams and aspirations, wandered into Hollywood casino in Ohio, which promised fortunes to the lucky.
The first, whom we'll call John, lived a life of complacency, some might say mediocrity. Education for him ended with the school bell; his curiosity never pushed beyond the confines of required learning.
The other, a 21 year old man named Lincoln, possessed an intangible thirst for knowledge, always seeking to learn from those who had walked the path of greatness before him.
John, with his easy-come-easy-go attitude, found himself in front of a slot machine that gleamed with promises of fortune. With a shrug and a smirk, he thought, "Why not?"
The machine's gears turned, and in one of his first few attempts, the unthinkable happened: he hit the jackpot.
A million dollars flashed on the screen, turning his smirk into a wide grin. Overwhelmed by his sudden fortune, John left the casino with dreams of endless possibilities.
Lincoln, on the other hand, was drawn to a machine that seemed out of place amidst the flashing lights. It was simple, almost ancient-looking. He felt a pull towards it, a curiosity sparked not by the promise of money, but by the uniqueness of the machine.
As he played, his initial excitement turned to disappointment with each loss. Yet, he persisted, driven by a feeling he couldn't quite place.
Finally, the machine halted, not on a jackpot, but on an unusual combination: three golden book symbols.
From the shadows, an elderly woman emerged, her presence as mysterious as the prize Lincoln had won. She handed him eleven books, each bound with the wisdom of ages. Confused but intrigued, Alex took the books home, a prize that felt heavier than gold.
Two years passed. John's life took a turn for the worse.
The million dollars, rather than a blessing, became a curse.
Uneducated in the ways of finance and lacking the wisdom to invest his windfall wisely, he squandered his riches.
Debts piled up, and the lifestyle he thought he could sustain forever vanished. He found himself without a home, regretting not the loss of money, but the loss of opportunity to grow and learn.
Lincoln’s journey took a different path. The books gathered dust for months before curiosity, that old friend, nudged him to crack open the first cover.
The words within spoke of more than wealth; they spoke of the philosophy of success, the "Money-making formula" that went beyond mere financial gain. It was a guide to enriching the soul and expanding the mind.
With each page turned, Lincoln’s worldview shifted. He learned from the great minds of history, absorbing their principles and applying his own to his life.
Education became not a task, but a journey—a path to understanding the world and his place within it.
The knowledge he gained from those eleven books laid the foundation for what would become a monumental career in business and entrepreneurship.
Lincoln went on to build a private equity firm that stood as a testament to the power of self-education. His success was not measured in dollars but in the impact he made on the world and in the people he inspired along the way.
Lincoln became a mentor, teaching others the principles that had guided him. He preached the importance of lifelong learning, of seeking wisdom from the great minds of the past. His life was a living example of the adage that knowledge is the greatest investment one can make.
The tale of John and Lincoln serves as a parable for the modern age, a reminder that fortune favors not just the bold, but the educated. It underscores the principle that to truly enrich one's life, one must commit to self-education, to learning from the great minds that have shaped our world.
This commitment to growth, to nurturing the mind like a precious newborn, is the key to unlocking not just wealth, but the secrets to a fulfilling and impactful life.
As Lincoln’s story shows, the true jackpot is not found in the ringing bells of a slot machine but in the silent pages of a book. For those willing to turn those pages, the rewards are limitless, echoing the eternal truth that in knowledge lies power, and in self-education, the secret to fortunes beyond measure.
