I will take the dare. It will take a lot of hard work, and I will have to
learn to satisfy the desires of many many people, and I will have to learn how
to be very creative and ingenious and make the most out of all my resources,
but I am confident that I can do it. I am pretty sure I can create that much
wealth (and I mean literally, to CREATE it). I'm planning on creating so much
wealth that I will have lots to share, to help poor people everywhere, to
teach them how to create their own wealth. The creation of wealth benefits
everyone, and so it will benefit me to teach lots of others how to create
wealth for themselves (then there will be more people creating high-quality
products for me to trade with). The only way we can all be wealthy is if
everyone learns to create their own wealth. It won't happen by redistributing
the wealth that some create to those who don't create wealth. Everyone must
take responsibility for their own lives and use the resources they have to add
value to everything they can. That is how we create wealth.
