Charlie Munger was asked at one of the Berkshire annual meetings by a young man, “How can I get rich?” And Munger‘s response was very simple. He said, “If you consistently spend less than you earn and invest it in index funds, dollar-cost average,” because you’re putting in money every paycheck, he said, “that in, what, 20, 30, or 40 years, you can’t help but be rich. It’s just bound to happen.”
