I Want to Be Rich and Beautiful

I'm just tired of going without and always being at the back of the line. Life is far too short to miss out on everything. But there are even more benefits to a wealthy life:
- no trouble paying the monthly bills
- being able to buy more expensive clothes
- always being able to take an expensive vacation
- being able to rent or even buy the best apartments
- an expensive car is a really great thing too
In principle, I could add plenty more. Rich and beautiful, that's how life should be. It isn't only the luxury that comes with having lots of money, but also the carefreeness that results from it. I'm a thoroughly responsible person and always pay my bills on time. But how are you supposed to do that if you're constantly short on cash?
Life is simply a lot more relaxed when you're rich and beautiful
If you're rich, you can dress much better and, above all, buy more expensive cosmetics. For example, I love having a good selection of different kinds of perfume. Sometimes you just can't stand the smell of other people. That's very colloquial, of course, and refers more to the personal level, but I still think it's an important point to mention, because I place great value on pleasant body scent. Often you can only achieve that with the right deodorant or an expensive perfume. But it starts with your daily grooming. The right shower gel can already do a lot of convincing. And a cheap hairspray would never come into my home. A good scent has to extend to your hair, too. Unfortunately, with a cheap hairspray, hair often just smells musty.

Being rich and beautiful, but how?
Being rich and beautiful is something plenty of people dream of, of course. However, it isn't all that easy to achieve. Unfortunately, there aren't that many paths and options either. First and foremost, you can get very rich through luck. And beautiful? That comes entirely by itself, because anyone with enough money can make themselves look good enough. Luck can come to you through an inheritance, for example. But gifts of money aren't to be sneezed at either. Then again, you usually only get those if you grow up in a wealthy family. Which brings us to the next point. Often you're simply born rich. If you have no luck and no rich family, hard work is often the only thing left. But does it really make you rich? Most people don't get rich through work. With an academic career, you usually have a better chance of a high income.
