Do you consider money to be a skill art? Like, Violin?

If you have never touched a violin in your life, then you will not be able to play one.
If you have never touch the subject of making money in your life, then you will not become rich?

A parents violin's skill can not be passed on to their child, but the violin itself can.
A rich parents wealth building skills can not be passed down to a child, but the material and wealth accumulated can.

So, do you think making money (building wealth) is a skill/knowledge?


I personally think it is; through investing, and knowledge of financial. Learn the language, and you learn the system. "save money to become rich one day" may mean one thing to one person, and another to another person. Save $20,000 for that new car, and you'll never be rich; use that same money for a good stock, or good property, or any good investment vehicle and you're planting an early seed.

Again, do you consider making money (being wealthy) a skill? or, do you think it's bound by luck?

Thank you!

Yes, it is a skilled art. Look at the people who start with nothing and wind up with plenty, as opposed to people who have all the training and knowledge and still can't seem to get a dollar ahead.

Autistic children can sit down at a piano and play perfectly without lessons - though that's a unique circumstance - but anyway, proves lessons and knowledge aren't everything.



Children who work hard for their money at an early age learn the value of money.



Different things come into play that can prevent a person from saving or making more money.... shopping sprees, buying more expensive houses and cars every few years (rather than staying put and saving instead of buying a bigger house), gambling, etc. so personalities or giving into the "Wants" can be detrimental.



I think paying cash for things is one of the smartest things one can do. You "feel" the money loss immediately and know how much you have left and are much more careful what you buy - the opposite of credit card purchases.

Making money and becoming rich are different.



"A parents violin's skill can not be passed on to their child," - Yes, it can.



"A rich parents wealth building skills can not be passed down to a child" - Yes, they can.



Skill and knowledge are different. I KNOW how to dunk a basketball. That doesn't mean I CAN.
