Getting Rich Means You Have to Sacrifice Your Social Life

If a person wants to get rich, I mean, very rich... that means to say, a person with no social life. So, if you really serious about getting rich, does it mean your family, friends or your social life should be your second priority? I feel that it is a second priority. I have just observed it from the rich people especially from the businessman. They focus on work no matter what happen to them.

Yes, because something's gotta give. If you are going to get rich, you may have to sacrifice a few relationships. You will not have time for everyone and everything if you are going to get insanely rich.

I agree, eventhough i'm not reach yet. I'm just a freelancer but somehow i spend most of my time with my pc. When i'm online, i search for job opportunities rather than chatting on facebook.

There are ways to get rich without sacrificing others. You could win the lottery that's probably the easiest way. You'd have lots and lots of friends then. You'd have more friends than you'd never knew you had before.

I don't think getting rich means you have to sacrifice your social life.there are many ways you can build your wealth.I learned that being rich doesn't mean you earn and earn more.for me getting rich means growing you and your wealth.some people who become rich have poor money making and managing skills.that's why some of them lose their wealth.I've seen some businessman lose some money,which in turn they work harder to get them back.
