2. Earning more will make you rich



I have 10 digit salary per annum I will be rich soon! Do you feel the same? If yes then you are having a false notion. Not just earning but saving and investing can save your money and make you rich in future. Often people start spending more money, when they start earning more. This happens when they get additional access to cash and buy things that they have been planning since long.
