The best sign you will be rich

Did you ever feel that you were going to become very wealthy? Did you ever look at what you were doing with your life and become sure that you were going to make a lot of money and keep making it, causing old relatives to pop out of the woodwork and ask for loans? Yes, that rich.

Just having feelings doesn't mean much but perhaps you have more than feelings, perhaps you think you are seeing signs that you will be rich and these signs are undeniable.

Although seeing signs about your future isn't always positive, especially if those signs are covered in dripping blood or wrought with flames and creatures that appear to be demons, sometimes the slightest sign of good fortune can mean riches and a bright, wealthy life ahead.

Some people feel that there are many types of wealth, including the kind that means you have an abundance of what matters most to you. But what if what matters most to you is money? Then, yes, being rich is having a lot of money, so much that even after paying taxes you have a lot of money.

Some people say that you cannot be truly happy just by having a lot of money. Money and happiness can live peacefully together, especially if having a lot of money makes you happy.

So, what sign predicts you will be rich?

When you are working at something you love and other people scorn you, belittle you and call you names, when people tell you to stop what you are doing and do something else, when people tell you failure is all that can be attained, when someone walks up to you and says, "Stick 'em up and give me all the money you have on you along with your online bank account number and password and social security number," and you are left with nothing, that is a sign that you are about to embark on a road to riches.

Of course that was just a joke paragraph. The best sign that you will be rich is when you look at your lottery ticket for a mega jackpot, a prize in the mult millions, and you see that the exact numbers on your ticket are the numbers that have been chosen for the winner.

If you can see that sign then you can verify that you are rich, as long as you cash the ticket. Some may say that is not a sign because you are the winner but some don't realize that if you don't show the winning ticket to the proper authorities you won't get a dime and not getting a dime won't make you rich. In fact, a lottery winning only worth a dime won't get you rich. You need the big prize and it is best if you have the only winning ticket so you don't have to share the money with anyone else.

If you see that sign, be sure that you will be rich and begin to live a lifestyle that includes making fun of all the people who are trying to work hard to become rich.
