the best business people are shrewd. is that the key to attaining success? they seem more money-minded and they count every cent.
there's no rounding up of figures when you purchase items, eg. $1602.60 will never be rounded up to $1602 or horrors of horrors, $1600.
put aside those items that are bar coded, etc. i take this scenario to be in a 'normal' store, where discounts can be given at a whim, and not in a big department store where everything cannot be moved due to the computerized system.
anyway, i am just citing an example.
i mean, rich people really know how to count. we silly poor creatures are way too generous with our givings.
look at the bank. you sign up some stuffs value of $5000, and they give you an umbrella ($20) and a spinella coffee worth about $4.00. so you see? they can count.
i am doing wrong things in my company.
i cannot count.
i give discounts of $300 when they purchase a $2500 piano, etc., and it doesn't mean that i have a high mark up.
therefore... i am not rich. duh duh duh.

the new me wants to be rich. the new me wants to be nice as well. would i be able to achieve that? it seems that most rich are calculative. so do i start being calculative to see some form of daylight out of this hell hole?
