I recently read the book "How Come That Idiot's Rich and I'm Not?" written by Robert Shemin.
In the book he had a test. I will not quote it correctly, but I will give you a taste of the test by making up my own, on the same basic structure.
So let's begin:
1) You have an elephant and you have a fridge. You want to put that elephant into the fridge. How do you do it?
2) You now have a giraff. You want that giraff into the fridge as well. How do you do it?
3) There is a zoo conference in the jungle. Which animal will not attend?
This is not a IQ test, even though it seems like it. It is just a test to see how smart you are, seen from a "Rich Idiot's" perspective (meaning a rich entrepreneur, not that the guy is an idiot or even a jerk. I guess the author used the word to provoke a little
).
I will give you all the three answers soon, but please try it out and post your solutions. This test will show you the real difference between how rich people think and how poor people think. There is one main point this test wants to prove. See you soon.
NOTE: All of you who have read the book already: Please do not answer until there is at least 10 answers from non-initiated forum members. Really appreciate it.
