Live below your means. That’s the only way to get rich. Amen.
For more on this I recommend the 1996 bestseller, The Millionaire Next Door, which points out that most American millionaires are not ultra-high earners; rather, most are ordinary Americans with unremarkable lifestyles, who simply live way beneath their means, and save the difference.

I’ve read the book and love it. I have no formal education but I myself am a millionaire next door. It’s not very difficult, just takes a bit of determination.

The millionaire will buy a 3 or 4 year old Toyota while the Joneses buy a new BMW...stuff like that.
