How can one stop struggling to make a living and start creating wealth?
Tracing back to the early 15th century, copying knowledge from books was a task that took years to complete.
Therefore, the price of owning a book was so high that it was a luxury only the wealthiest could afford.
Historians tell us that in the 14th century, the price of a handwritten book was equivalent to a large house. Naturally, there were few scribes, and the profession was highly paid.

While many people pursue these high-paying jobs, a German named Johannes Gutenberg also has a similar goal. He also wants to write many books, but he plans to achieve it in a different way.
Around the year 1440, Gutenberg began experimenting with his ideas in Strasbourg, France. About ten years later, after returning to Germany, he had a printing press that he could use: the Gutenberg Press.
Although it took Gutenberg several years to accumulate his wealth, he was able to replicate 200 copies of the Bible within three years, which was considered a miracle at that time.
Now, to answer your question, how can one stop making a living and start creating wealth?
Stop "writing" and start building value delivery assets that suit you!
Gutenberg changed the manuscript industry in the 15th century. The more the printing machine replicates, the more the value of these tasks depreciates.
Today, almost every industry globally is undergoing transformation. The value of labor for millions of jobs is devaluing. Humans cannot defeat machines.
To create wealth, we either build our own assets or invest in value delivery assets that can create value for us.
Assets can be anything, like Smart Phone applications or small stores. Today, even strong Social Media followers or popular blogs can become valuable assets.
Wealth is not created through toil.
Do not misunderstand; a higher salary may make you feel wealthy, but only assets can make you wealthy.
