This is a little test I put together to help people decide whether or not to buy BAMM. For each question, write down A or B for your answer. Be honest!
1. Do you (A) think you want to become a multi-millionare because it sounds like fun, or do you (B) refuse to accept any outcome other than successfully becoming a multi-millionaire, regardless of how hard you have to work for it, or for how long?
2. Would you rather spend your time (A) playing on your Xbox, smoking weed, playing on Facebook, partying with friends, laying on the couch eating Pringles and watching TV, or (B) working toward becoming a multi-millionaire?
3. Would having a million dollars make you feel (A) guilty because there are people out there who are poor, or (B) exhilarated and proud of having earned it, and unconcerned with “poor” because they could have done what it takes to earn it just like you did?
4. If you were a multi-millionaire, would you (A) end up giving it away to charity and beggars and people asking for hand-outs, because they made you feel guilty for not doing so, or (B) find ways to make your wealth grow and persist, while turning down beggars and such, since they did not earn it, and giving it away would erode and destroy your wealth?
5. Do you believe that (A) it is a virtue to be poor, or (B) that being poor only wastes your potential for making the world a better place, and subjects you to unnecessary suffering?
6. Do you (A) resent those who have large amounts of wealth, or (B) understand that some wealthy people are jerks, just as are some poor people, and you want to be wealthy because you understand that wealth does not equate to being a jerk, and understand that resenting them for it is not going to make it happen for yourself?
7. Do you (A) spend more money than you bring in, and rely on credit cards to keep yourself afloat, or (B) try to live within or below your means and keep a financial buffer or nest egg in the bank?
8. Would you rather (A) have a job working for someone else which gives you a steady paycheck but limits your income and leaves you with someone else controlling your wealth building capacity, or (B) start your own business, work for yourself and have a higher risk and level of responsibility in exchange for the freedom to make as much wealth as you please?
9. When you think of becoming a multi-millionaire, do you (A) think it's fun to think about and imagine, but prefer to leave it at that? Or (B) know this more than likely is going to take years of work, and effort, and facing fears and overcoming obstacles and challenges, but I want it more than I am deterred by all that?
10. When you think “multi-millionaire”, do you think (A) "Once I have a million dollars, I'm rich!" or (B) "Nowadays, I'll need to be a multi-millionaire to handle the costs associated with being wealthy, such as taxes, lawyers, accountants, estate planning professionals, and so forth."?
For every A answer is worth -10 points. Every B answer is worth +10 points.
What did you score, and do you want to buy BAMM 2.0? This is basically going to help me calibrate the test.
