The Millionaire Next Door: The Surprising Secrets of America’s Wealthy
By Thomas J Stanley, PhD and William D. Danko, PhD
|
|
After interviewing hundreds of rich Americans (“rich” meaning with a net worth of $1 million or more),
Drs Stanly and Danko came up with some interesting findings. These people are often not the ones
living it up with expensive cars, clothes, fancy homes and extended vacations to exclusive resorts.
They are not always the folks who inherited a lot of money and started off ahead of the game. They
are people with a particular combination of character traits and attitudes that can lead to financial stability.
Some of these are hard work, diligent saving, living below your means, and knowing the value of a dollar.
Find out what it takes to live like a millionaire-it’s not necessarily an Armani suit.

Who Moved My Cheese? An Amazing Way to Deal with Change in Your Work and in Your Life
By Spencer Johnson and Kenneth H. Blanchard

Much of sound financial planning is about managing risk and dealing with change. For that matter,
so is much of life in general. Critics say this book is too simplistic, but many have found the allegory
of mice and men in a maze, and their relationship to the “cheese” an amusing and insightful reminder
of how to masterfully handle change - be it in the workplace or otherwise.
