One of the reasons why the 'When Will I Be Rich' question is difficult to answer in Bazi because the meaning of 'Rich' or 'Wealthy' is difficult to define. How much money is enough? Or how much is a lot? Indeed, how much is too much?
Donald Trump once remarked that when he owed hundreds of millions of dollars in debt to the banks at one point in his life, he considered the beggar who had $2 in his begging bowl richer than him. It's all about context.
Unfortunately your Bazi is not read like a bank statement. It does not tell you how much money you will have in exact figures or net worth. Instead, what a Bazi chart tells you is whether or not you have the capacity to amass great wealth and whether or not this wealth will last or will simply be a flash in a pan.
How do you judge your Wealth capacity? We need to see whether there is any wealth element in your Bazi, if it is not present, you already start out with a disadvantage, money-wise in life.
Assuming the wealth element is present, the next thing we have to evaluate is whether the wealth element is strong or weak. Even if it is strong, we still want to check your Luck Cycle to determine if you are going through Good Luck or even better, going through Wealth Luck. It's also not enough to just be able to make it, we must also look at whether a person will be able to hang on to his wealth or will he make it and lose it just as quickly?
Finally, we need to look at issues of personality and career. You have to enter the right career in order to maximise your wealth potential but you also need the right personality and attitude to amass the wealth. You can have all the wealth potential in the world but by being a lazy bum isn't going to help you get rich!
