Self discipline is the key. Instead of complaining the world isn't dedicating itself to making you happy (not that there isn't validity to having a level playing field) you've got to make your way the best you can while fighting the good fight.
People who look like they are wealthy usually aren't because they spent all their money trying to look like they're wealthy.
Totally agree! Most successful people that I know spend less than what they make, become the best in their field and diversify their cash flow (rental properties, second businesses, second jobs). Successful people rarely drive the nicest car in the parking lot.
Far more unsuccessful people don't drive the nicest car in the parking lot.
