I watched this millionaire on Wogan years ago..
He was asked how he had made his money.. He told them that when he was little his grandmother gave him and apple.. he shined.. and sold .. and bought two more.. shined them.. sold them.. and bought more..
He did this rain or shine.. even in the winter.. more and more apples... pushing his little cart along... shining them.. selling them.
Then one day his grandfather died and left him 200 million.

The best way would have to be the sweetest way; the path of least resistance and hassle, and that my dear and beloved CS friends is by just assuming the role from one day to the next; is it possible or probable? You bet it is...

Would I sell my soul for money? NEVER; I would have to love him and admire him for who he is.
Sorry but I have to disagree on the "work hard" mantra. It's been my belief that working smart beats working hard any day of the week.
A friend of mine once told me that we owe our current lifestyle to lazy people, for it's the lazy people who invent machines to do the hard jobs they are loathe to do.
BTW the quickest way to becoming a millionaire really is to become a very sucessful drug dealer, as long as you can manage to stay alive and out of jail.
