How do the rich get rich? An updated edition of the “remarkable” New York Times bestseller, based on two decades of research (The Washington Post).
The various actually wealthy in the USA don’t live in Beverly Hills or on Park Avenue. They live next door.
The us’s wealthy seldom get that way through an inheritance or an advanced degree. They bargain-shop for used cars, raise children who don’t realize how rich their families are, and reject a way of life of flashy exhibitionism and competitive spending. In truth, the glamorous people many of us think of as “rich” are in fact a tiny minority of The us’s actually wealthy citizens—and behave relatively in a different way than the majority.
At the time of its first publication,
The Millionaire Next Door was a groundbreaking examination of The us’s rich—exposing for the first time the seven common qualities that appear time and again among this exclusive demographic. This edition includes a new foreword by Dr. Thomas J. Stanley—updating the original content in the context of the financial crash and the twenty-first century. “Their surprising results reveal fundamental qualities of this group that are diametrically opposed to today’s earn-and-consume culture.” —Library Journal
