35% Of Americans Think The Lottery, A Surprise Inheritance, Or Big Insurance Settlement Is The Best Way To Get Rich

Smart:

More than one in five Americans believe the best way to get rich is to win the lottery, while 11 percent say inheriting money is the way to go, a survey showed on Monday.

Asked the most practical way to accumulate "several hundred thousand dollars," 21 percent chose winning the lottery, compared to 55 percent who thought saving something each month for many years was best, according to a survey by the Consumer Federation of America and the Financial Planning Association.

Meanwhile, a statistically-insignificant 0.000001% think the best way to get rich is by typing stupid jokes about Chris Klein on a moronblog.
