There is no quick route. Hardly ever, at least. To be able to afford big things, you have to save on small ones. But how to keep it up?
From rags to riches – a fairy tale?
A 17-year-old Brit allegedly sold his self-developed software to Yahoo for 30 million. Cool, but rare. The odds are about as long as for winning the lottery. It may sound boring, but to build wealth, you first have to earn an income. A good education helps to find a well-paid job.  
It is therefore a smart first step to invest in a good education. An important point: choose a field that interests you and could be fun to work in. This will give you the best prospects of a successful career. Temporary jobs will help you earn some money while in education. Investing on the stock exchange or in real estate – is of course another way of earning money. But that requires capital with which to make the investment. And building capital means saving money first.

What does being rich mean for you?

Everyone has their own notion of what wealth and success mean for them. At the very beginning, it may just mean being able to pay for a holiday abroad.
Where do you want to go? How long do you want to stay there? How will you get to your destination? How much will it cost? There is a difference between going on a four-day trip to Berlin and staying in a budget hot or travelling round the world for six months. This is just one example. You could define smaller goals (e.g. a new mobile phone) or bigger ones (e.g. getting your driving license) and of course, really big ones (e.g. buying a car or an apartment).
Once you know what you want, make a plan of how you are going to get the money you need. You can try to earn some extra income. And you can save up. To be able to afford something big and accumulate wealth, you have to save on small outlays. With a household budget that won’t be as hard as it may sound.
