DON'T gamble away your future. Statistically, you're much more likely to be struck by lightning than to win the state lotto. DO stay healthy. DO reconsider that luxury car. DO get married.
Married people earn more and have more wealth on average than couples living together.
Today is an equally heady time, with even wilder fortunes being made on the Internet. Start your own Web company, buy stock in such companies or work for a start-up that offers stock options and wait for it to go public. Still, statistics show the Net is the place to be. The Carnegies, the Rockefellers - it happened two times in a generation. Now it happens every other week.
