Radar Empresarial: Dollar Tree vende su negocio Family Dollar

En nuestro radar de hoy aparece una de las mayores cadenas de Estados Unidos que está en su peor momento: Dollar Tree. La compañía, después de unos muy malos resultados, ha tenido que vender su negocio Family Dollar a los fondos Brigade Capital Management y Macellum Capital Management por 1.007 millones de dólares. Puede parecer una cantidad cuantiosa, pero nada más lejos de la realidad. Y es que en 2015 la empresa se hizo con Family Dollar por 9.000 millones de dólares. 8 mil millones menos que terminan con la venta de un negocio por el que Family Dollar fue apostando cada vez menos en 2024. La compañía decidió clausurar 600 tiendas y apostar por la nueva apertura de 300 nuevos locales en 2025. ¿Cuáles fueron los resultados de su división el año pasado? Creedon, que indicó que las cuentas de Family Dollar se reportan como operaciones discontinuadas, reportó en la conferencia para analistas que las operaciones discontinuadas disminuyeron un 11,2% hasta los 3.300 millones de dólares. Aunque es verdad que el rendimiento de las operaciones continuadas fue un poco plano, con un ligero aumento del 0,7%, otros problemas han sacudido a Family Dollar. En febrero, la cadena de tiendas tuvo que pagar 41 millones de dólares después de que en un centro de distribución hubiera una infestación de ratas. Debido al peligro sanitario que supuso, el Departamento de Justicia indicó que el castigo fue “la sanción penal monetaria más grande jamás realizada en un caso de seguridad alimentaria”. ¿Qué camino le espera ahora a Dollar Tree? Para Mike Creedon, una de las claves para el futuro de la compañía es volver a los orígenes. ¿Pero qué hace especial a Dollar Tree? Para Associated Press, una de las claves es que “las tiendas se encuentran principalmente en zonas urbanas desatendidas. Los cierres de tiendas actuales, probablemente tendrán un impacto considerable en los clientes que viven en esas zonas”. Para Marshal Cohen, asesor principal de la industria en Circana, firma de investigación consultada por el medio, el acceso a bienes esenciales y asequibles puede volverse más difícil para las familias de bajos ingresos si cierran estas tiendas. Dollar Tree es una cadena de tiendas de descuento fundada en 1953, por el empresario KR Perry. En 1986 se llamó only one dollar y ya en 1993 pasó a nombrarse con la nomenclatura actual. Forma parte de la lista Fortune 500 y opera en más 15.000 tiendas en los 48 estados contiguos de EE. UU. y Canadá .

Telegram Tales from the Central Telegraph's Office, co-produced by Amandine Devine and Ellen McEvoy tells the story of the 24-hour thriving office that kept Ireland's communication on track during the 60s and 70s.Nowadays we are all familiar with instant communication - e-mail, text, and social media, but there was a time when you had to send a telegram if you wanted to contact a person that didn't have a telephone. The contributors Ann Duncan, Cormac O'Brien, Michael Confrey and Seán Creedon, document the history of the office, peppered with memories of their interactions with customers and colleagues. The backdrop is a growing Dublin City Centre and a period of huge change in Irish history from strikes to bombs, to marriages and christenings.Telegram Tales is a nostalgic look at what was the communication of the 60s and 70s, such a necessity that many people had a full career in telegrams, which is a communication which has virtually been wiped out today.

Maybe you're too biased to become a successful property investor? What do I mean by that? Well…did you know that we can sometimes be our own worst enemy as property investors? It's not because of the decisions we make, the opportunities we consider, or the investments we miss out on, but rather, it's due to the way we think. By the last count, I've read that there are 188 types of these fallible mental shortcuts in existence, and they constantly impede our ability to make the best decisions about our careers, our relationships, and for building wealth over time. So, whether you are a beginner or an experienced investor, whether you're in business or an entrepreneur you'll enjoy my chat today with Mark Creedon, founder of Mastermind Business Accelerator as we discuss why seemingly rational people act irrationally when it comes to money. Cognitive Biases You Need to Know Without always knowing it, property investors are pre-programmed with a range of biases which may cause them to interpret information incorrectly and thus undertake sub-optimal investment decisions. You see, most of us think we're rational people but we're not. There is no shortage of cognitive biases out there that can trip up our brains. However, because cognitive biases are based on generalizations and assumptions, they can't always be correct. And if you don't check your reasoning, they can lead to judgments and decisions that negatively impact your business. 1. Confirmation bias People tend to search for information that confirms their view of the world and ignore what doesn't fit.  In an uncertain world, we love to be right because it helps us make sense of things. One way to counter confirmation bias is to read things you're going to disagree with. In other words, read all you can from reputable sources, whether it's confirming your original view or not. 2. Anchoring bias We have a tendency to use anchors or reference points to make decisions and evaluations, and sometimes these lead us astray. This is because the initial price you set for a house or car or more abstractly, for a deal of any kind, tends to have ramifications right through the process of coming to an agreement. Whether we like it or not, our minds keep referring back to that initial number. It's important for you to evaluate any property deal based on its own fundamentals and all the information you have available from your research and due diligence at the time. 3. Awareness bias How are your investments performing – are you happy with the results you're getting? It's been shown the poorest performers in all areas of life are the least aware of their own incompetence, a phenomenon known as the Dunning-Kruger effect. If you're the smartest person on your team you're in trouble. It's best to work with a team of mentors and professional advisors. 4. Positivity bias In the face of lack of capital growth, prolonged vacancies, or inflated expenses, some investors continue to believe that their investment will turn the corner “one day.” The problem with this is that when all signs point to a dud investment, it likely is one – but positivity bias can stand in the way of an investor taking action to rectify the situation. One of the best things an investor can do is admit what they don't know and get a good team of professionals around them. 5. Negativity bias Just as some investors can be overly positive this is the tendency to put more emphasis on negative experiences rather than positive ones. Our ancestors evolved a brain that routinely tricked them into making three mistakes: overestimating threats, underestimating opportunities, and underestimating resources. This helped keep them alive. It's a great way to pass on genes, but a lousy way to promote quality of life or grow your wealth through property. Fact is: there will always be property pessimists around, but you can minimize your risks and maximize your upside if you educate yourself and become financially fluent, follow a proven strategy, and get a good team around you. 6. Status quo bias This describes our tendency to stick with what we know, whether or not it's the best course of action. Psychologists call this “loss aversion” and it explains why so many Australians are willing to stick their money in a plain old bank account earning minimal interest, rather than taking the “perceived risk” of property investment. Successful investors, businesspeople, and entrepreneurs have mentors, coaches, and mastermind groups to help them see their blind spots and to encourage them to keep moving forward. 7. Survivorship Bias The misconception here is that you should focus on the successful if you wish to become successful, while the truth is that when failure becomes invisible, the difference between failure and success may also become invisible. The trick when looking for advice is to not only learn what to do but also look for what not to do. 8. Bandwagon bias This is the psychological phenomenon whereby people do something primarily because other people are doing it. The bandwagon effect has wide implications but is commonly seen during strong property markets where the media stirs up a frenzy and it's one of the factors that lead to asset bubbles. But when it comes to financial matters we know “the herd” is usually wrong – most property investors never build a substantial portfolio. It pays to remember that just because everyone else is doing it, that doesn't mean you should follow the crowds. 9. Restraint bias Following on from bandwagon bias, restraint bias is the tendency for people to overestimate their ability to control impulsive behavior. Psychologists say the very people who think they are most restrained are also most likely to be impulsive. 10. Bias bias Failing to recognize your cognitive biases is a bias in itself. Arguably this is the most damaging bias because having blind spots means you're less likely to recognize any of these psychological influences in yourself. Simply becoming aware of these biases means half your battle against your own worst enemy – yourself – is won. The bottom line: We all want to think we are rational and biases are things that afflict other people. However our brains are designed with blind spots and one of their clever tricks is to confer on us the comforting delusion that we, personally, do not have any biases. This is why so many of us are not only bad with money but make the same mistakes over and over again.

Are you hoping to be a better investor, businessperson, or entrepreneur? Well, today's show is for you because we discussed the concept of behavioural finance, which is the study of the effects of psychology on investors and financial markets. But don't worry, it's not woo-woo stuff, and it's not technical. Instead, I share several quotes from my favourite author, Morgan Housel, and Mark Creedon and I will try and explain why investors often appear to lack self-control, act against their own best interest, and make decisions based on personal biases instead of facts. Whether you're a beginning investor or well down the track in your investment journey, I'm sure today's show will give you some insights, as you're probably twice as biased as you think, and if you don't think this applies to you, you're probably four times as biased as you think. Want to become better with your finances? Well, you could do a lot worse than learning from my favourite author, Morgan Housel, author of the Psychology of Money. His book The Psychology of Money shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money and teaches you how to make better sense of one of life's most important topics. And today, I'd like to discuss several of Morgan Housel's quotes with Mark Creedon, founder and CEO of Metropole's Business Accelerator Mastermind. Doing well with money isn't necessarily about what you know. It's about how you behave. And behavior is hard to teach, even to really smart people. ●        Doing well with money has little to do with how smart you are and a lot to do with how you behave.  ●        Money―investing, personal finance, and business decisions―is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world, people don't make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. ●        Emotions can override any level of intelligence. Morgan Housel Quotes “Be careful when reading about how stupid investors can be and not realize you're reading about yourself.” “The problem with economic forecasting is that the things you can predict tend to not matter, and the things you can't predict make all the difference in the world.” “Planning is important, but the most important part of every plan is to plan on the plan not going according to plan.” “Getting rich and staying rich are different things that require different skills.” “Most financial mistakes come when you try to force things to happen faster than is required. Compounding doesn't like when you try to use a cheat code.” “Imagine how much stuff you'd have to make up if you were forced to talk 24/7. Remember this when watching financial news on TV.” ●        Investors were probably better informed 20 years ago when there was 90% less financial news. ●        Predictions, opinions, and forecasts should be discounted by the number of times the person making them is on TV each week. ●        The more you want something to be true, the more likely you are to believe a story that overestimates the odds of it being true. “The market is rational, but investors play different games, and those games look irrational to people playing a different game.” ●        A lot of financial debates are just people with different time horizons talking over each other. ●        Beware of taking financial cues from people playing a different game than you are. ●        Everyone is making a bet on an unknown future. It's only called speculation when you disagree with someone else's bet. “When things are going extremely well, realize it's not as good as you think. You are not invincible, and if you acknowledge that luck brought you success, then you have to believe in luck's cousin, risk, which can turn your story around just as quickly.” “Controlling your time is the highest dividend money pays.” “No one is impressed with your possessions as much as you are.” ●        Don't attempt to keep up with the Joneses without realizing the Joneses aren't any happier than you are. “Read last year's market predictions, and you'll never again take this year's predictions seriously.” ●        A big takeaway from economic history is that the past wasn't as good as you remember, the present isn't as bad as you think, and the future will be better than you anticipate. “You're twice as biased as you think you are (four times if you disagree with that statement).” “Tell people what they want to hear, and you can be wrong indefinitely without penalty.” “You're twice as biased as you think you are (four times if you disagree with that statement).” “Risk management is less about how you respond to risk and more about recognizing how many things can go wrong before they actually do.” “If you have an idea but think “someone has already done that,” just remember there are 1,010 published biographies of Winston Churchill.” ●        Just because someone else has done it before, that's not a reason not to do it. If anything, it means that you can do it too. More people wake up every morning wanting to solve problems than wake up looking to cause harm. But people who cause harm get the most attention. So slow progress amid a drumbeat of bad news is the normal state of affairs.

One of the most influential books I read in the 1990's was Stephen Covey's ‘The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People.” It's a classic and a classic for a reason. The seven habits are really powerful things to build into your life. In a way, they're just common sense. Like “begin with the end in mind” or “put first things first” But the thing about common sense is it's just not that common. Not in practice anyway. So in today's episode, I delve into Stephen Covey's renowned Seven Habits of Highly Effective People with Mark Creedon, founder of Mastermind Business Accelerator. If you want to become more successful as a property investor or business person, or just in life in general I'm sure you got to get some gems from my chat with Mark Creedon today as we unpack the this personal development classic. What we learned from Stephen Covey's Seven Habits of Highly Effective People Proactivity and its relevance to property investors and business people. Learning to take responsibility for one's reaction to one's own experiences and take the initiative to respond positively and work for improvement. Beginning with the end in mind: setting clear goals for your future. Determining what you want is necessary in order to work and plan toward it. Prioritizing: putting first things first. Learning to distinguish between what's important and what's urgent. Building successful relationships by thinking in terms of win-win. Valuing and respecting others will lead to better outcomes. Understand others to be understood. Empathetic listening to others not only ensures that you'll understand them better but also prompts them to do the same for you. Understanding synergy to create a whole greater than the sum of its parts People are stronger together, and through positive teamwork, you can unlock improved outcomes Devoting regular time to self-renewal Putting in the time to renew yourself physically, spiritually, mentally, and socially makes you a more well-rounded individual.

How do you view life? Some people think that what happens in their lives is out of their control. These are the folks who wait passively for what life dishes out to them. They have few goals, and they are the ones who usually hope for the best — that life will be kind to them and that they will eventually be at the right place and at the right time. Other people realize that life is a great opportunity for learning and for realizing their fullest potentials. Some of these lessons are learned the hard way. However, by learning to cope with the challenges, one can come out of the experience wiser and stronger, more able to face whatever else lies ahead. Now, this is as just relevant in property investing as it is in business, entrepreneurship, relationships, in fact in all areas of your life. So, in today's show Mark Creedon and I discuss a series of life lessons you may have learned in the past but have most probably forgotten.

The research involved three groups replacing their regular snacks with whole almonds, ground almonds, or an energy-equivalent control muffin. The authors conclude that incorporating almonds into the diet could be a way of increasing fiber intake without triggering gut symptoms. An important player in gut health appears to be butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid that supports the health of the microbiome itself. Dr. Alice Creedon explained to Medical News Today: “Butyrate is important to gut health, as it acts as the primary source of fuel for the cells of the colon, allowing them to function correctly and optimally. It is also involved in signaling to the gut to initiate the process of nutrient absorption.” “In addition,” said Dr. Creedon, “butyrate produced in the gut can enter the bloodstream where it is involved in the regulation of health in other areas of the body, such as the liver, brain, and lungs.” The study demonstrates that eating a healthy handful of almonds each day promotes the production of butyrate. Dr. Creedon's research documents the benefits of eating about 56 grams, or 2 ounces, of almonds daily — that amounts to about 46 almonds. “Butyrate supports the gut barrier, which keeps bacteria and other microbes from entering your blood. In doing so, butyrate can help to reduce inflammation, manage conditions like IBS [irritable bowel syndrome], and decrease gastrointestinal discomfort like bloating. “Butyrate is produced through the fermentation of fiber in the colon. Therefore, increasing fiber in the diet, such as in almonds, increases butyrate levels, which has a positive effect on our gut health,” said Tallman. Additional benefit of omega-3 fatty acids for the clearance of metabolites from the brain Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology, October 23, 2022 New research published online in The FASEB Journal suggests that omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are found in fish oil, could improve the function of the glymphatic system, which facilitates the clearance of waste from the brain, and promote the clearance of metabolites including amyloid-β peptides, a primary culprit in Alzheimer's disease. To make this discovery, scientists first used transgenic fat-1 mice, which express high endogenous omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in the brain, to investigate the effect of omega-3 PUFAs on the clearance function of the glymphatic system. Compared to the wild-type mice, the fat-1 mice with enriched endogenous omega-3 PUFAs significantly promote the clearance function of the lymphatic system, including the Aβ clearance from the brain. Wild-type mice were supplemented with fish oil, which contains high concentrations of omega-3 PUFAs, and found that fish oil-supplemented mice also improved the clearance function of the glymphatic system compared to the control mice without fish oil supplementation. Omega-3 PUFAs help maintain the brain homeostasis, which may provide benefits in a number of neurological diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, traumatic brain injury, and sleep impairment, among others. “These now-famous fatty acids have been the subject of major studies both in academia and industry. Just when we thought we had heard everything, here is something new, and it is provocative indeed,” said Thoru Pederson, Ph.D., Editor-in-Chief of The FASEB Journal. “This study should not turn attention away from the roles of these substances in maintaining vascular health, but neither should they restrict our view. The brain is an extremely vascularized organ, while we might also bear in mind that omega-3 fatty acids may impact neurons, glia, and astrocytes themselves.” Are our brains physically shaped by life experiences? University of Ottawa, 23 October 2022 The notion that an experience external to the body – not something we have ingested, that has been affected by disease or damaged through physical injury – can measurably change the physical properties of an organ as intrinsic to our functioning as the brain is revelatory. But can we prove cause and effect? Tracy Vaillancourt, a psychologist at the University of Ottawa, Canada, who has conducted a range of studies into the emotional and psychological effects of bullying – as well as the neurobiological impact of bullying – finds it frustrating the media, public and policy makers are more inclined to pay attention to research on the subject if researchers can demonstrate biological damage. “When I show that something is biological, it makes headlines,” she told The Boston Globe. “For some reason I think humans are more compelled to believe biological evidence than someone saying, ‘Oh I'm depressed. I don't feel good about this.' I'm hoping that that is a policy changer.” Vaillancourt found that while bullied boys have higher levels of the stress hormone cortisol than their non-bullied peers, bullied girls have much lower levels of cortisol compared with their peers. She also found that bullied teens score less well on tests of verbal memory than their peers, suggesting that the abnormal cortisol levels may be killing neurons in the hippocampus, leading to memory problems. As part of an ongoing, long-term study, Vaillancourt has been following teenagers – some of whom have a history of being bullied by their peers – and assessing their cognitive functioning every 6 months. Vaillancourt is also using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to scan the brains of the teens for evidence of damage to the hippocampus. In a previous study, neuroscientist Martin Teicher scanned the brains of 63 young adults, as part of a study into verbal victimization. Teicher found that, among the subjects who reported being the victims of verbal bullying, there were abnormalities in the corpus callosum. This region of the brain consists of a bundle of fibers connecting the brain's left and right hemispheres and is known to be important in visual processing and memory. The neurons in the corpus callosums of the bullied subjects were found to have less of the myelin coating that boosts communication between brain cells. It has been suggested that these brain abnormalities might make it difficult for victims to process what is happening around them and respond appropriately. It might also explain some of the cognitive impairments associated with being bullied – poor memory, attention and concentration – and could even contribute to the anxiety, depression and suicidal thoughts experienced by many victims. The impact of childhood maltreatment, more generally, on neurobiology has been explored in several studies. Previously, the results of neuroimaging studies in abused children have been considered to be inconsistent. The researchers found that the participants who had been exposed to maltreatment exhibited significantly smaller volumes of grey matter in several brain regions. “Childhood maltreatment acts as a severe stressor that produces a cascade of physiological and neurobiological changes that lead to enduring alterations in the brain structure,” says author Joaquim Radua. The researchers found that the participants who had been exposed to maltreatment exhibited significantly smaller volumes of grey matter in several brain regions. ‘Processed meats have same cancer risk as cigarettes' World Health Organization, October 23, 2022 Bacon, ham and sausages have the same cancer risk as cigarettes, according to a report by the World Health Organisation (WHO), a media report said. WHO listed processed meat as a carcinogenic substance, while fresh red meat is also expected to join the encyclopaedia of carcinogens' and is likely to be regarded as bad for health. The classifications, by the WHO's International Agency for Research on Cancer, are believed to regard processed meat as “carcinogenic to humans”, the highest of five possible rankings, shared with alcohol, asbestos, arsenic and cigarettes, the daily added. Studies have shown that people who eat a lot of red meat tend to eat fewer plant-based foods that protect against cancer. The WHO report follows a meeting of scientists from 10 countries who reviewed all available evidence. Processed meat is made by smoking, curing, salting, or adding chemicals. Examples include ham, bacon, pastrami and salami, as well as hot dogs and some sausages. Burgers are also expected to be included in the WHO list of carcinogens. Early supplementation may help offset early-life stress on the adult brain University of Amsterdam, October 25, 20229 Early-life stress has been shown to impair learning and memory in later life, but new research, published online in The FASEB Journal, suggests that improved nutrition may help offset the negative effects of this stress. Specifically, using mice, scientists focused on essential micronutrients, including methionine, vitamins B6 and B12, and folic acid, none of which are made by the body and need to be ingested through diet. They found that early-life stress reduces the levels of these nutrients in mouse pups, but supplementation prevented the reduction of methionine levels and even prevented some of the lasting negative effects of early-life stress on later learning and memory in adult offspring. To make their discovery, Korosi and colleagues mimicked a stressful early-life environment during the first week after birth (postnatal days 2-9) for newborn mice and their mothers. Control mice and their mothers were housed in a normal environment. During the stress period, half of the mouse mothers (control and early-life stress) received a standard rodent diet, the other half received a diet that was supplemented with essential micronutrients. The lactating mouse mothers ate the diet and thereby developed elevated micronutrient levels in maternal milk and subsequently in the blood and the brains of their pups. After the initial stress period, all mice received a standard diet and environment. Once the mice became 4 months old, their learning and memory skills were tested in various cognitive/behavioral tasks. Mice that were previously exposed to early-life stress performed worse than control animals and demonstrated poor learning and memory skills. However, stress-exposed mice from mothers that received the supplemented diet performed equally well as the control mice did. “The field of postnatal nutrition has sometimes taken a back seat to research on the maternal-fetal axis, but of course we cannot ever ignore either,” said Thoru Pederson, Ph.D., Editor-in-Chief of The FASEB Journal. “Here we see strikingly beneficial cognitive effects of a sound postnatal diet. The nutrients tested were familiar ones, but the results speak for themselves.” Cold Homes Increase The Risk Of Severe Mental Health Problems – New Study University of Adelaide (Australia), October 31, 2022 Concerns about fuel poverty and people not being able to heat their homes adequately are not new in the UK, but these worries have been heightened by significant increases in energy costs and the cost-of-living crisis. And as winter approaches, things are about to get a lot worse. Colder temperatures suppress the immune system. But we know relatively little about the effects on mental health. Our new research shows that living in a cold home is a significant mental health risk. Living in a cold home can affect your mental health in several ways. For many, heating costs are a source of stress and financial strain. Not being able to keep your home and family comfortably warm reduces feelings of control and autonomy over your environment. People who are unable to heat their home often adopt coping mechanisms that limit socialising – for example, not inviting friends over and going to bed early to keep warm. And many people are just worn down by the drudgery of a whole winter of being uncomfortably cold. Using data from a large representative sample of adults in the UK, we followed people over many years and tracked the effect of being unable to keep your home warm on mental health. When people's homes became cold, their risk of severe mental distress significantly increased. For people who previously had no mental health problems, the odds of severe mental distress doubled when they had a cold home, while for those who had some (but not severe) mental health symptoms, the risk tripled . We found these effects even after taking into account many other factors associated with mental health, including income.

Who do you ask for property investment advice? With so many mixed messages and vested interests, who can you really trust? And in today's property markets, there are very few advisers who have the perspective of having lived through and successfully invested in several property cycles and understand how to take advantage of the current stage of the property cycle. Yet there is a new breed of so-called property experts emerging. So, what's the threshold for being able to call yourself an expert? Usually, experts have years of experience in their chosen profession. They're at the top of their industry, and they shape the path of progress. And yet, there's no shortage of so-called “property experts” and buyers' agents whose only real experience seems to me they've done a short course and really love property. The rise of these so-called “advisors” coincided with the practice of personal branding on social media. While social media has undoubtedly created fantastic opportunities for real experts to connect and share their knowledge, it has also opened the floodgates for a tsunami of self-titled “property experts” looking to flog their books, consulting sessions, training programs, or online courses. So, in today's show, Mark Creedon and I are going to share some advice from Warren Buffett. As I said, don't take advice from somebody you wouldn't trade shoes with, and I bet you'd love to be in his position. The bottom line. These are only a few of the thoughts from probably the most quoted investor. I could easily have made the list twice as long but use these as motivation to think differently.

Negotiating is a part of living; we do it all the time. When you walk down a crowded street, you negotiate the path you take. A couple negotiates their relationship before and during the marriage.  And of course, negotiation is one of the skills developed by all savvy property investors and businesspeople. Over the years, I've noticed that some people are very good at getting terrific deals. Most others simply get what the other party is willing to give. What's the difference?  In my mind, it's that the first group knows how to negotiate. It's more than that; they know how to influence and persuade others to do what they want. So today, I discuss the topic of negotiation, influence, and persuasion with Mark Creedon, founder and CEO of Metropole's Business Accelerator Mastermind.

We all know that the rich keep getting richer, but the question is how can we learn from them? Sometimes it can seem as though rich people are born lucky with inevitable success ahead. But the reality is that anyone can become rich. It's not like they have any special secrets.  After all, even the rich invest in property, shares, and business-like any other ordinary Australian. The difference between the rich and ordinary Australians lies in some simple things they do differently.
