SUCCESS

A survey found out some common attributes among the wealthy:

1 They had parents with high aptitude for math. Common professions among the parents of American billionaires were engineering, accountancy and small-business ownership.

2 American billionaires were born in the fall than in any other season. Many were born in September.

3 More than 20% of the 292 of the self made American billionaires on the most recent list of the World's Billionaires have either never started or never completed college like Microsoft's Bill Gates, Apple's Steve Jobs, Dell's Michael Dell, Larry Ellison and Theodore Waitt.

4 Billionaires who derive their fortunes from finance make up one of the most highly-educated sub-group.

Be aware, another attribute noted is thaat several billionaires suffered a bitter professional setback early in their careers that heightened their fear of failure. Poverty is a good incentive for success, but of course, you also need good breaks in life.
