My thoughts (so far) on building permanent capital

My thoughts (so far) on building permanent capital, there seem to be 2 ways to do so:
Get a high paying job, build up cash and relationships, use both to acquire businesses.
Start small businesses, buy others, slowly build portfolio.
Any others?

There's also always start a single fast growing business, sell it and buy others as an option.
