Because it indicates lack of self-esteem. You don't consider yourself worthy enough to attribute all of your success to yourself, so you give away part or all of it to someone or something else.Originally Posted by AlexDawson
Why feel successful when you can feel lucky and successful!

Why did I ask this question,becasue my nature is lonely,I feel it is not good,I researched it,a lonely nature always meet the poor situation in his/her life,becasue it is not good for business ,and it is hard to deal with the social relationship,maybe he/she can be a good artist?(like van gogh）,but he/she is hard to be rich.
karma.
You can still do good. I'm a loner too, yet that hasn't been an obstacle - a strength if nothing else. As I said in one of my previous posts, you have all that extra time you don't send on socializing. Of course, the internet has a lot to do with that.

It's easy to blame on karma for richness...
I think the key is to do something that suits your personality. No point being in customer services if you don't like talking to people. There is a program that I suggest you look into, no need to get into it deeply, but it's called Wealth Dynamics. More specifically give Your Life Your Legacy: An Entrepreneur Guide to Finding Your Flow by Roger Hamilton. It's a great business book in general.

Totally agree
Actually it's because I'm cognitively neurotic and highly self-critical... if you wanna play psych I could go on for hoursBecause it indicates lack of self-esteem.

There's a few people I know who would make awesome serial killers then.
You don't need luck to be rich. You only need luck to be hugely rich.
To be rich, all you need is to earn more than you need. Most of us on this BB are rich. We earn enough to have somewhere to live, a large choice of food to eat and have a computer with an internet connection that opens us to almost all the knowledge in the world.
What more do we need?
Fair enough. No, I'm not gonna play a game I can't win.Actually it's because I'm cognitively neurotic and highly self-critical... if you wanna play psych I could go on for hours
Very true. Furthermore, having lots of stuff limits you. Managing a big wealth is a hard and stressful work. I don't think most people who drool over huge riches consider that. Most of them would go insane with that "luck" (how many lives have been destroyed by winning a lottery?).You don't need luck to be rich. You only need luck to be hugely rich.

I think what makes a guy rich is discipline.
If you work hard, save your money (leaving some aside for enjoying life), and keep at it, you'll become at least financially stable.
Basically procrastinating spending, and realising that the desperation to spend is merely to feed today's wants, and will delay tomorrow's.

And to make up for the lack of love from your father you spend time at the YMCA?

You should probably get new friends, the most likely people to murder you are people you know.There's a few people I know who would make awesome serial killers then.

It's not like I stopped studying psych post leaving college, human psychology is a BIG part of the job I undertake (though I'm not giving care so I don't need to be licensed). I regularly read journals, research, books (et al) as it helps me better cater experiences for the needs of an audience. In regards to psychology (non-medical) I would say I'm a professional (of sorts). Anyone wanting to get into UX Design would be better off studying psych than traditional design if you ask meIf we want to play psych we could speak to a real professional not someone that once did a side course a few years ago
Anything you want to own up too?
Hope you manage to squeeze in a bit of practical application with all that reading and listening to of podcasts you're always telling us you do.It's not like I stopped studying psych post leaving college, human psychology is a BIG part of the job I undertake (though I'm not giving care so I don't need to be licensed).

Indeed I am! The great thing about podcasts are that I can listen while I work... and they say men can't multi-task
I've always wanted a Samurai sword (no relation to your liking of kittens!)
There are two kind of people : making money and spending money
I think it is the IQ, because when you are intelligent enough, you have the capacity to think perfectly in getting your business or career to be more enhanced.
opportunity,IQ.... sometime opportunity is Key factor，For example famous general，If not war environment，can you become a general though books?
If you don't know to use the opportunity, don't feel the opportunity...it has not value .
is there only successful people here?
how would you define successful?
anyway, I say nature - and my opinion has nothing to do with money.

Being a loner can be a strength. too bad people keeps thinking it's a weakness

Loner with the money...it's really sad
If his IQ is high then he is able to convert 2000$ into 200000$.
not just IQ, but also: how far are you willing to go to get rich?
After all, there are alot more people going the legal way then hovering on the edge, making the profits there higher
Integrity is the most important--and most commonly shared--character trait of the truly successful.
Without Integrity, one's Vision is faulty, so one's goals are misguided, and even "success" in the venture fails to enrich life and increase peace.
