The authors show you how to achieve significant wealth by demonstrating how real people have already traveled that road. You’ll find:
* Discussions of how the subjects of the book made their money, how they invested, how they spent, and the plans they’ve created for the immediate future.
* Explorations of how millionaires enjoy life, their outlooks, mistakes, pivotal lessons learned, how they teach their children about money, and their personal spending habits.
* Examinations of how the affluent make important decisions and deal with adverse market and money events like bear markets, recessions, career changes, and life transitions.
