I had a boss tell me one time, “you will never get rich working for someone else.”

Smart boss.

yep, and he was right. It's almost impossible to get rich working for someone else.

There are two keys to accumulating a lot of wealth. 1. Own you own business 2. make sure it's a passive investment that doesn't consume too much of your time (which leaves you with time to replicate the idea and your wealth)

Exactly; all your hard work and brainy ideas go to someone who only benefits from it. These days a lot of businesses are like a collective, with everyone benefiting and only a highly energetic few doing the bulk of the work. Everyone here knows of who I speak.

Don't tell Nathan Myrvold and Paul Allen (former Microsoft employees who are now multi multi millionaires.)
