In it Bill reveals the best practices for building wealth and growing rich derived from his decades-long research of high-net worth and high-income millionaires. Personal finance gurus like Dave Ramsey and Suze Orman leverage these insights all the time in their work.
The Millionaire Next Door is a long-time best selling book, written by two PhD’s who spent decades researching the behaviors of thousands of millionaires. Their work reveals that there is indeed a scientifically-derived approach to financial success.
