It makes a difference in terms of the strategy necessary to actually pool enough capital, invest, repool, invest etc., to have a million in assets/cash
You can save $1m working almost anywhere, you just need to save a little each year. You don't have to be Mark Cuban. If you are asking someone on a video game forum advice on how to be rich you probably aren't the entrepreneur type.

If you have no skills but went to college go into corporate finance.

If you didn't then go do construction or something.

You can save $1m by sucking at what you do, floating and only saving $15k per year for 28 years at 6%. If you don't suck and can get some good company benefits you can do it much quicker.

Good luck.
