Editorial Review:

Amazon.com Review:
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.

Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - interesting
I'd recommend this book to someone who needs some motivation to be more frugal and less materialistic.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - 250 pages one concept. Waste of time.

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.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - What really lies beneath
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.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A Bit Dated, but Still Relevant
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 ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Insightful Information
This book is must read for those who want to be a millionaire. I am 21 years old in college. I know this is a book generally for people who are over 30. But seriously if you're looking to read books to expand your financial literacy and get a better understanding how millionaires become millionaires. This is it. In the beginning it gets really slow because of all the research data they did.. But in the middle of the book, i laughed out loud reading this because this book was saying true stuff and ...
