I will assume that your money is either in Euros, Dollars or Pounds.\n\nIf that is the case, there are several ways to make money.\n\nThe determining factor is your goals. Short term or long term.\n\nIf short term, to make more:\n\nDay Trade\nBuy fixer-upper homes, re-sell after a good make over within a year.\n\nIf long term, to make more:\n\nEquity stocks.\nstock market in general.\nHedge funds.\nBuy homes, rent them.\n\n\nMay you more money and put it into good use!

Education and experience will pay off for you the most in the longrun...  It takes a combination both to reach your salary goals.

Yes\n\n1)  Get a good education in a field where there is a lot of expected future demand\n\n2)  Set a long-term financial goal (financial independence at age 45, for example), with interim benchmark goals and make financial decisions that are consistent with your goals (Example:  Which is more consistent with your goal to be rich:  Buying a new BMW or a used Honda Civic - both will get you from Point A to Point B).\n\n3)  Make sure your are insured against catastrophic losses, but don't waste money by overinsuring.  Example:  A health crisis can wipe out all but the most wealthy.  Therefore, always have health coverage, but with a high a deductible as you can tolerate in order to minimize the ongoing cost.\n\n3) If you're married or plan to marry, do everything possible to maintain a good and happy marriage.  Divorce is very, very costly.  Also, having a spouse or partner who shares your long-term financial goals makes becoming wealthy much easier.\n\n4)  Save and invest a healthy percentage of your take-home pay starting at an early age and taking maximum advantage of  tax-advantaged alternatives (IRA's, 401ks, etc.)\n\n5)  Invest your savings in a group of stock mutual funds that have a good long-term track record and consistent portfolio management\n\nOf course there are other ways to become rich like starting your own business that turns out successful. However, the way I've outlined is a more likely avenue to future wealth.

To reach any kind of goal in life, you must first envision what it is you want.  And WHY do you want it?\n\nYou say, "a job."  There are all kinds of volunteer opportunities out there that certainly fall into the category of "a job," in that they are regular, recurring responsibilities that consume one's energy and time!!  Is this your goal?  To find an outlet for your energy and time?  Or is it something closer to, "to generate an income that I can use as a springboard to greater things in life, while being self-supporting with regard to my living expenses?"\n\nYou ENVISION yourself earning a half-million or more USD per year; your creative mind will go to work on that vision and (IF YOU KEEP IT AND DEVELOP IT AND GO AFTER IT WITH PERSISTENCE), unless you die first, some day you will have that 500,000 dollars a year income.\n\nSet small goals and achieve them, and thereby gain the self-confidence to gain bigger ones.  You want 400 dollars per week disposable income?  This is achievable quite easily in almost any area of North America, by any person who can communicate at the level of a ten-year-old or above.\n\nFigure out what you ENJOY doing.  You will never succeed at something you hate to do.  Then e-mail me for further advice, or go it alone; your choice.  Click on the link of my nickname to get an e-mail to me.

Well first try to get something small,like a furniture account. Then you just must make sure you are not late on any payments and you build from there.The more you pay the more someone will take a risk on you.

First, spend less than you make.  Then, pay off your debt, highest rates first.  Finally, make investments in different asset classes (stocks, bonds, metals, real estate, etc.) to secure your long-term financial goals.  That's it in a nutshell.

Live beneath your means.\n\nInvest what you don't spend. Invest either in your own business, or invest in the stock market and other assets. The  first way will get you there faster, but eveyone doesn't want to pressure of being the boss.\n\nStart as soon as you can.\n\nDon't stop learning to improve yourself.\n\nBe patient.

You can maybe have a friend agree to call you to make sure you do what you've committed to. And if you don't then you have to pay that friend for everytime you back out. I know this sounds a bit silly but it just may work. Kinda like a curse jar. (you know, people who have a problem with cursing have to put money in a jar everytime they do it) except, agree to pay your friend a fixed amount if you don't committ to a particular goal.  You'll probably end up sticking to those goals if the thought of losing your money annoys you enough.

Financial consultant? How do you consult with money? Does it give you tips for living? But seriously, take every course that might help with your goal, and work for a bank, even.

You should be saving and investing, but if your goal is to be rich at 30, you need to establish and run your own business.  You need to find something to sell, a service to provide, something you can give to others, who will pay you!\n\nLearn business.  Not necessarily corporate finance, but day-to-day business planning, accounting, law, etc.  You need to know how to create a business plan, so people will finance you (lend you $$ to start).  \n\nBe prepared to sleep in your car.  Be prepared to be seen as a useless dreamer with no chance to succeed.  Be prepared that you will do everything right, and have it fail anyways.  It happens.\n\nYou may fail miserably, but this will raise your get-rich-by-30 chances from 0 (winning the lottery) to maybe 5%, maybe even 25%, who knows?

You should first make or get (probably better for you) a personal financial plan. It will consist (among other things) of an evaluation of your present situation, your plans, goals, demands and needs plus a risk profile determing what suits you best. Be sure NEVER to invest money that you cannot miss!
