One of the hardest things to tame is the desire to have something quick. In the name of wanting quick things, wrong decisions are made which can be detrimental.
Talk about making quick money. Many have been duped by Networking/Pyramid schemes. Sometimes the persuasion seems so real that you can feel like a billionaire at that time, forgetting that things worked for are things worth valuing and fighting for.
There are no shortcuts, we have to be intentional about work and growing ourselves in a proper way. Shortcuts may eventually lead to destruction, success is not for the lazy so let us do what we have to do instead of doing nothing.
There is this one thing called Betting that has taken up the minds of so many people be it corporate or the everyday person. Students have betted their school fees and ended up committing suicide. We need to learn the value of work and making the right investments. It won't always be true that you will get your odds right, the temptation is high after being successful the first time, you keep telling yourself you need ago at betting once more.
I have had of how people have sold property in the name of betting and this has brought lots of problems and curses.
There is a story line in the link below that should tell us to avoid being caught by the wave of betting, things that come quick also disappear quick

Proverbs 21:5 - The plans of the diligent lead surely to advantage, But everyone who is hasty comes surely to poverty.
