Thomas J. Stanley Livres

"Why aren't I as wealthy as I should be?" Many people ask this question of themselves all the time. Often they are hard-working, well educated middle- to high-income people. Why, then, are so few affluent. For nearly two decades the answer has been found in the bestselling The Millionaire Next Door: The Surprising Secrets of America's Wealthy, reissued with a new foreword for the twenty-first century by Dr. Thomas J. Stanley. According to the authors, most people have it all wrong about how you become wealthy in America. Wealth in America is more often the result of hard work, diligent savings, and living below your means than it is about inheritance, advance degrees, and even intelligence. The Millionaire Next Door identifies seven common traits that show up again and again among those who have accumulated wealth. You will learn, for example, that millionaires bargain shop for used cars, pay a tiny fraction of their wealth in income tax, raise children who are often unaware of their family's wealth until they are adults, and, above all, reject the big-spending lifestyles most of us associate with rich people. In fact, you will learn that the flashy millionaires glamorized in the media represent only a tiny minority of America's rich. Most of the truly wealthy in this country don't live in Beverly Hills or on Park Avenue-they live next door.

Building on his research from the best-selling "The Millionaire Next Door", Stanley delves further into the psyche of the American millionaire with this study of how people--a bus driver, a textile entrepreneur, a Fortune 500 CEO--adopted the millionaire mindset to become financially independent.

Eight years ago, Dr. Thomas J. Stanley unveiled the truths behind wealth in America with his groundbreaking work. Now, he shifts focus to a lesser-known yet increasingly affluent demographic: self-made millionaire women. Stanley addresses the overwhelming representation of men in his previous studies, noting that 92 percent of millionaire respondents were male, and emphasizes the need to highlight successful businesswomen. This book promises to be as informative and inspirational as his earlier works, presenting thoroughly researched findings on the lifestyles, choices, and characteristics of wealthy American women. It goes beyond merely extending his studies of male millionaires, introducing groundbreaking concepts about the nature and business decisions of self-employed women. The book ranks over 150 business categories based on profitability and success likelihood. It also explores the nurturing backgrounds of these women, revealing that many were raised in environments that fostered success and generosity, as evidenced by their charitable contributions. While they share traits like frugality with their male counterparts, Stanley shows that millionaire women often excel academically, professionally, and in investment practices. This book is set to be one of the most discussed and reviewed releases of the year, offering valuable insights for readers and investors alike.
