Having observed and worked with wealthy people and people with high incomes I have discovered it is not only how much they make, but how much they save that determines their wealth. The book, The Millionaire Next Door, proves this point and teaches us how these people actually acquired their wealth and how they are able to retain it.
This book is for two types of people, those wishing to become wealthy and those who are curious in learning how the wealthy work, what they own, and how they play. You are in for a true surprise when you discover that not all of them are members of country clubs and purchasers of luxury cars. These are places and things that are for those who want to feel wealthy not necessarily for those who are wealthy.
You will discover that the most purchased model vehicle by the wealthy is a Jeep Grand Cherokee, and the car manufacturer most millionaires buy is Ford; not the Rolls Royce and Mercedes most would think. They also live in upper middle income neighborhoods and are very interested in their children obtaining an education because they know this will give their children the ability to earn a high income.
Most people want to feel and look wealthy as opposed to actually being wealthy. Many of the wealthy continue their frugal spending even though they do not need to. Most will drive across town to save money purchasing gas on the way to the airport where they board their private jet. You will understand why this seeming paradoxical action by the wealthy makes perfect sense after reading The Millionaire Next Door.
