This book, perhaps better than any other, highlights the benefits of a frugal lifestyle. Through their groundbreaking research, the authors unearthed some surprising truths about millionaires. Equally important, they have discovered that what sets millionaires apart from everyone else is often not how much they earn, but how much they spend. For people looking for a little motivation for controlling their spending, this is a great place to turn.
– Doug Warshauer, Author of If I’m So Smart Where Did All My Money Go: Balancing Your Financial Objectives for Lasting Wealth — Well researched and very convincing
I’d recommend this book to someone who needs some motivation to be more frugal and less materialistic. — interesting
250 pages of spend less than you earn and you will become rich.
Every single concept in this book was obvious. If you are mentally capable of buying this book, then you already know all the ideas inside it.
I was hoping for real interviews with people who had become successful in life.
The author seemed to have access to so many people and yet basically asked do you spend less than you earn.
This book was a total waste of time. — 250 pages one concept. Waste of time.
A great read for anyone who wants to be independent in thought, attitude, and finances. It is book that teaches action and self awareness as well making you define your idea of “wealthy”. This book shows hows so many Americans are hell bent in keeping up with the “Jones’” only to find out the “Jones’” are fools and you’ve just wasted your life in the pursuit of trivial possessions. — What really lies beneath
Although written in the late nineties, I recently reread this little gem and found many of its insights still relevant. Among them, that affluent people are more likely to drive your everyday sedan than an exotic sports car. That accumulating wealth is more likely the result of frugality, planning, and discipline than the result of a high income stream or prestigious occupation. That the wealthy are just as protective and foolish over their children as the rest of us. And, that being the child of wealthy parents is more likely to harm your ability to accumulate wealth than is being the child of immigrants.
Of the insights above, the importance of frugality and planning is the most persuasive and enduring to this reader’s mind. Less persuasive are the many tables of figures so clumsily put together and coupled with pedestrian predictions like “the SUV is becoming increasingly favored by wealthy Americans.” No doubt over a decade of hindsight has made some of these predictions seem trite. The larger narrative, though, is still fresh, compelling, and worthy of application. Doing so may not make you a millionaire, but it will place you on a more solid financial footing. — A Bit Dated, but Still Relevant
