According to Forbes magazine there are currently 1,645
Dollar billionaires out of a population of 7 billion which is 1 billionaire for
every 4 million persons. These exceptional achievers must be really special or
extraordinary? Well not really. These
men and women have been able to establish and develop the DNA for extraordinary
fortune hence their success.
They are ordinary people who have turned lives and fortunes
around doing things in an extraordinary way. This extra comes from having a
billionaires DNA which can be developed and nurtured by almost anyone,
anywhere. So what makes up this DNA?
Secondly they have an extremely high problem solving
mentality. Money literally is a reward for solving problems. Bill Gates solves
information problems, Warren Buffett solves money problems while Aliko Dangote
solves food and shelter problems. When you consider that billions have the
problems that these 3 men solve then no wonder they are extremely wealthy.
Another important component in the billionaires DNA is their
generosity. They give extensively to lots of worthy causes trying to make the
society a better place. They have made so much then they turn around to give
some of it away. There is truth in the saying that he who gives will always get
more.
Ideas rule the world. The world still has need of better
improved inventions, products and services. Ideas are the currency that can be
converted to wealth and fortune. Billionaires thrive on innovation and are
always on the lookout for it. Once these innovations can be developed they take
it to the market place and exchange it for wealth. Thus innovation and ideas
are part of their DNA.
The fifth component of the Billionaires DNA is their
appetite for risk. The greater the risk the greater the reward. They are always
ready to risk their fortunes, reputations on the next big idea or trends.
Finally billionaires are quick to accede to the fact that they
do not know everything. They do not need to. Instead they build thriving and
successful teams of advisers and partners who assist in making making their
plans successful and create wealth for them as well. Every billionaire has a
team around working on ideas, no wonder they succeed.
