"97% of millionaires believe they control their financial destiny - it's less about money and more about belief." - George Kamel
George Kamel just shattered every assumption you have about wealthy people. Forget the flashy cars and designer everything - the real millionaires are driving four-year-old used cars and saying no to things they could easily afford. George led the largest study of millionaires ever done in North America, and what he discovered will completely flip your understanding of how wealth actually gets built. These aren't trust fund babies or lottery winners - these are everyday people who cracked a code that most of us are programmed to ignore.
What makes this conversation so powerful is how George connects the dots between our instant-gratification culture and why we're financially struggling. He reveals why 97% of millionaires share one crucial belief that separates them from everyone else, and it has nothing to do with their income level. Whether you're making $40,000 or $400,000, these four habits work every single time - if you're willing to embrace delayed gratification in a world that profits from your impatience. Lewis even shares his own story of driving a $4,000 car for five years while having a million in the bank, proving that true wealth builders think completely differently about money than the rest of us.
