Depends on how you define rich. It's all about income and expenses. The millionaire next door typically doesn't live in a massive house with extravagant cars.
Salary plus commissions can get you $250,000 a year as a sales person with little experience if you are willing to work hard and can handle rejection.
Do you have a recommendation on what to sell? How hard is hard? Can I work medium hard and earn $150k? Do I have to live anywhere in particular? Do you have to travel 100+ days a year?
This is mainly about creating your own wealth. The first basic question is how do you want to spend your time? Since we are creatures of habit, having a scheduled 9-5 job with someone else directing you can be very comforting. It takes a special kind of person to go off and schedule your own day, work hard towards a goal, all while fitting in your normal life in between. With a job, you are forced to go to work at a set time, then when it's done you go home and continue your life for a few hours. Not everyone wants to spend that time creating wealth.
