Exactly, you need to do four things in order to become rich:

  • Do NOT pay taxes; taxes are only for poor people; be proactive.
  • Use your tax money to ~~bribe~~ lobby politicians into help you become richer.
  • Abuse your employees and your providers; squeeze them like you were a baddie from Dune.
  • Be a pillar of the community, which means paying a PR agency to boost your image.

Or at least that's what I learned from the rich.

That's not how you become rich-er. To become rich in the first place, you need to try real hard to be born rich, or be one of the four people per generation that get stupid lucky.

The important part is once you're rich, claim it was due hard work and perseverance only.
