Your Odds of Becoming a Millionaire!

YOUR ODDS OF BEING A

Quote from Real Time Success Secrets

If you own a small business, you're already more likely to reach millionaire status than most, according to USA Today analyst Danny Sheridan. He calculated these odds on ways to become a millionaire:

• Inheriting it: 12 million to 1

• Winning the lottery: 12 million to 1

• Playing the slots at the casino: 6 million to 1

• Winning in a game show on TV: 4 million to 1

• Saving $800 per month for 30 years: 1.2 million to 1

• Owning a dotcom that goes public: 10,000 to 1 (well, these odds were calculated in August 2000)

• Owning a small business: 1,000 to 1

What I like is the fact that when you own a business, you can actually increase the odds (if you are trained in business and work hard at fine-tuning your operations).

From Screen Writer Unknown 

50 spec screenplays sold every year out of 250,000 spec screenplays circulating around Hollywood and various other filmmaking venues = 1 spec screenplay sold for every 5000 spec screenplays put into circulation.

Hmmm. Does that translate into 5000 to 1 odds? Let’s put that into perspective…

• Odds of getting a hole in one: 5,000 to 1

• Odds of winning an Academy Award: 11,500 to 1

• Odds of winning the California lottery: 13,000,000 to 1

Here's another. Odds of becoming President: 10,000,000 to 1. Stop playing the lottery and start working on your career!
