 In my experience it takes 

7-10 years to get rich. 

20+ years to get wealthy.

2-3 years to get in shape.

5-10 years to have a deep trusted relationship. 

10 years to be an overnight success. 
 sounds accurate 
 10 year overnight here we go 
 Low time preference is the way 
 Time is the most precious thing we have, if you spend it wisely, it will always give back 
 Play the long game, doing things right, and trusting in truth

 A lifetime to realize none of those things actually matter 
 Getting shape matters. 
 1 second to destroy trust. 
 God so true 
 What separates rich from wealthy? I've heard a lot of different responses to this and I'm curious what your take is. 
 For me the difference is that it’s inter generational. Rich people have enough for themselves and their children, maybe grandchildren as well. Wealthy people have enough for descendants they will never meet. 
 So $100M+ purchasing power? 
 I feel this
