The incredible national bestseller that is changing people's lives -- and increasing their net worth!
CAN YOU SPOT THE MILLIONAIRE NEXT DOOR?
Who are the rich in this country? What do they do? Where do they shop? What do they drive? How do they invest? Where did their ancestors come from? How did they get rich? Can I ever become one of them?
Get the answers in The Millionaire Next Door, the never-before-told story about wealth in America. You'll be surprised at what you find out....
How can you join the ranks of America's wealthy (defined as people whose net worth is over one million dollars)? It's easy, say doctors Stanley and Danko, who have spent the last 20 years interviewing members of this elite club: you just have to follow seven simple rules. The first rule is, always live well below your means. The last rule is, choose your occupation wisely. You'll have to buy the book to find out the other five. It's only fair. The authors' conclusions are commonsensical. But, as they point out, their prescription often flies in the face of what we think wealthy people should do. There are no pop stars or athletes in this book, but plenty of wall-board manufacturers--particularly ones who take cheap, infrequent vacations! Stanley and Danko mercilessly show how wealth takes sacrifice, discipline, and hard work, qualities that are positively discouraged by our high-consumption society. "You aren't what you drive," admonish the authors. Somewhere, Benjamin Franklin is smiling.

Check it out at the library!:
This book's subject matter is good. The problem-it reads like a bad research paper. It's so boring!!!!! If you're interested in stats on every page, have at it. Otherwise, check it out at the library and skim the main points.
The millionaire net door:
my husband loves it! lots of facts about millionaires and how they live and spend their $
Great Intro to Wealth Building:
This is one of the best books on wealth bulding I have even read and I've read hundreds of them. It does a superb job of profiling key characteristic and behaviors that American typically fall into putting themselves deep into debt and then gives simple and easy to connect with ways to counter these behaviors to put yourself on the right track to financial independence. Really, really great! Do yourself and your family a favor and read it.
A Must Read:
This was a surprising book, because it goes against popular myth as to who are the wealthy and why. If politicians and business leaders had read this book, we may not have gotten ourselves into the current financial mess!
