Hello fellows, you might already know these people, but allow me to share to you again, because i am really inspired by these remarkable people in our country. I believe that one way to inspire or encourage us to be like them is to know them more deeply, on how they start and how they were able to made it. For that allow me also to share to you and let us learn together from their success story and their humble beginning. We will not only rate or rank them base on their net worth but also to their being, on how and what have they become as a person. Real wealth or to be truly rich is not only about money, properties and investments. Real wealth is everything. One must be wealthy in all aspect of life: Spiritual, Mental, Emotional, Physical and financially to be truly rich. You can be called poor if you only have one or few of these aspect, you must have it all. As my mentor had said that real wealth is about Relationship; our relationship with God, relationship with our family, relatives, friends and to all the people that surrounds us. Folks join me to my journey to reveal the secrets of life.

Be remarkable,
Bernard
