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.

 A book which could change your financial life completely Juillet 23, 2001
This book has made remarkable highlights on the secrets to become a rich (or so called millionaire). Although the points mentioned are easier said than done. But if you persists, how come you could not be the next millionaire in the world.
 STOP "STALLING", START INCREASING YOUR WEALTH TODAY Juillet 23, 2001
This book reads like a novel. Although Ozzie and Harriet were not rich on their television show, the description of today's wealthy family reminded me of that old program. I found it interesting to learn what today's rich consume, how they dress, how often they eat out and what cars they drive. However, I was left looking for some direction on what a young person today should do to have a great chance of becoming rich to join this upper income class and lifestyle. Without that direction, the old "stalls" in THE 2,000 PERCENT SOLUTION set in. Donald Mitchell, Carol Coles and Robert Metz include The Procrastination Stall, which may show up as staying in your old job because it is secure even though you can get a better one and The Tradition Stall where your parents and grandparents were hard-working middle income folks, so you should be also. Perhaps a sequel to this book, researching the best practices for becoming rich and the trends in best practices would help steer people in the green direction. Also, some measurements about how much to invest where and what rate of progress is expected would also be useful. There are eight-steps in THE 2,000 PERCENT SOLUTION which lead people to progress at 20 times the average rate. I recommend that as a complementary book to THE MILLIONAIRE NEXT DOOR to get people started on identifying and getting rid of their own "stalls" and developing their own success measures.
Inspiring Juillet 23, 2001
While this book is not a how to become a millionaire guide, by looking at the habits of first generation millionaires, it makes it seem within one's grasp. My wife and I have been inspired to achieve millionaire status in 10 years after reading it! It should be noted that The Millionaire Next Door is geared mainly to people who earn above average incomes and spend their money on fancy clothes, expensive cars and other conspicuous consumption items and never really accumulate wealth. If you are in this category, this book will make you think about your spending habits and whether or not you are willing to forego spending now in order to build up your nest egg and lead a comfortable retirement. There is a lot of emphasis on frugality in this book. However, if you are a low income single parent in a minimum wage job, frugality is choosing store brand over name brand in the supermarket. There is no money left over to invest in stocks and real estate because just about everything is being spent on the bare necessities. Perhaps Stanley and Danko should write another book profiling people who came from dirt poor backgrounds and achieved financial independence. That would really be inspiring.
