how does one actually get rich?

i’m guessing this question is asked a lot, but i’d rather ask it myself than search for things.

i really want to be rich when i’m older. i’m 16 now and very happy, but i’ve been told for so long that life sucks as an adult unless you’re rich. i’ve been trying to prep as best i can - i have a job, and have a couple thousand saved up. a little over 2000 in a cd, a little over 400 in a roth, etc. basically all of the little money things i can do now, along with working my ass off.

my question is, how do i actually get rich? what should my plan be from here? go to college, get a degree? invest in certain stocks? start a business? what’s the roadmap towards real success (if there is one)? what steps should i take now and in the future? sorry again if this is too frequently asked
