What does it take to be a millionaire?

My answer to that question is: "having a million dollars." If you search for that question on google, you get all sorts of answers. Most of the answers that you get are trying to sell you something. Which means less towards your millionaire fund - go figure. A few of the sites had interesting advice involving tenacity, persistence, patience, investing, and so on. Nothing as helpful as: Step 1 - do this; Step 2 - do this; and so on. Personally, I don't wonder about being a millionaire. My question is: "What does it take to be a billionaire?" However, the answer is still the same: "having a billion dollars." The prompting for all this was a personal calculator that I happened across online. It asked the million dollar question and attempted to let you calculate the answer for yourself. Technorati tag: millionaire billionaire
