Basically it's living nig-ga rich. They don't have any money, one day they start making a lot so right fucking away they have to go buy all the nice shit they could never afford. At the end of the month they not only do not have any savings left over but they didn't invest any of their income into making them more, passive income. The phrase " let your money work for you and not you work for your money" is an alien language phrase to them that they can not read much less comprehend. As the money was pouring in it was about trying to show off, live large and just assume it would last for ever.

Some say "easy come, easy go" but I am sure some of these people did work hard, they just had no clue of how to manage their money. The more they made, the more they spent and they didn't have the foresight to understand about investing or that it may not last for ever.

Who here has accomplished that? Who made millions, invested it wisely and is now making tons of money, passively from their investments and would still be a "millionaire" if their online income stopped tomorrow ?
