That is one of the ways...

The other is get married, live a simple life, save and invest.

Or to invent something that people are willing to pay for.

Or to inherit well and do not squander it.

Only if you invest in ways that avoid taxation.

Hiram,
When someone makes a $1 million per year and pays $350,000 per year in taxes...

They get rich and pay a lot in taxes.


Please provide a source for this claim.

Bill Gates has 15 billion dollars. How much tax has he paid on that? zero, because that wealth is derived from founders shares for which he paid nothing and have appreciate untaxed.

That's how you become wealthy.
