If I ever end up rich it will have to be through luck, because I just don't care enough about money to work for much beyond my needs + a few wants + a bit in reserve for emergencies. 😃

well.. i don't know really what level of richness we are talking about here, because it's different for many people.. but I've voted "already rich..".. maybe it's slightly arrogant, but i do consider my family not maybe THAT rich but quite wealthy.. nevertheless i still strive for more, i want to be able to afford lots and lots and lots and lots.. 🙂
i don't know if there exists an English equivalent, but there is a Russian proverb or saying that, if roughly translated, sounds smth like this "there is no such thing as too much money"
although, just in case, I'm not obsessed with money or anything.. i have other goals, it just never hurts to have money ))

and i don't think that by getting more rich you will make others suffer in poverty.. that's just silly..

well actually its not silly
there is a book called "one trillion dollar" (in german "eine billion dollar")
u should read that!
if u accumulate money, others (most likely those who dont have much anyway) lose some.
trust me, i major in economics -.-

which does not mean that i dont wanna become rich!

hmm.. well, maybe i will check that one out.. nevertheless, i don't think the poor loose money from someone getting rich, more like from the inability to get richer themselves.. although, i still can't quite grasp the concept, how exactly do they loose money?
my major is deeply connected with economics, but more business administration-ish.. i guess))

I don't think of myself as rich, due to the fact that everything I own are gifts from my parents, and I have never worked, gambled or anything of that sort, but I think that by working hard you can reach at least a middle class life. If you live a sufficient life then why be so greedy for more, right? =3

I don't want to be rich. I would like to be able to live comfortably, with a few luxuries and enough money in the bank to cover one year's worth of bills, should I ever need it.

i'd like to live a simple normal life..but if ever a stack of thousands comes my way,then why not take it.
and to the people who say that while one man is rich,many suffer.i agree to that,but not all rich people do that..some help the poor and homeless too,you know.

Why would I want more money than I could possibly use?
I'd just like enough to not worry about my family if anything happens.

Work hard. I don't really see another answer worth considering. After all, if you gain money by luck, you could lose it again just as easily. If you do illegal stuff, well, I know *I *wouldn't feel good about the profit. If you work hard, even if you don't strike it rich, per se, the work in itself would be rewarding.

I don't care about being rich-I really have no interest.

But in every aspect of life, I've had to work very hard to achieve anything. If you work hard and maintain that attitude, then any extra luck that comes your way can be taken advantage of; but relying on luck alone is stupid.
