A man spent 5 years studying rich people - Thomas C. Corley

-

He spent 5 years studying rich people because he wanted to know the answer to one question: Why are some people rich and other people poor?  

 

He sated that "one of the most valuable things I learned is that there are only two ways to become rich:

  1. Live below your means (spend less than you earn).
  2. Expand your means (earn more than you spend).
 
"Think long and hard about the effect your friends, and those you associate with on a daily basis, are having on your spending and savings habits. If you hang out with spendthrifts, there’s a good chance you could become one yourself".

"One of the hallmarks of the self-made millionaires in my study was the conscious effort they made to associate with like-minded individuals. If a close relationship was a spendthrift, they limited how much time they spent with those individuals". - Thomas C.

Or maybe get some shuteye where Bill Clinton and Pavarotti have previously laid their heads (on separate occasions)? The Middle East's most opulent hotel suites can deliver. With acres of gold leaf and chandeliers at every turn, there's opulence and decor to make Liberace blush.  Throw in Jacuzzis, cinemas, butlers and fine dining, and those cavernous 12,000-square-foot chambers can soon fill up. Sure the prices are high, but the money buys jaw-dropping views over sights including the Bosphorus, the Gulf of Oman and the world's tallest building.  And who knows, the hotels might even throw in a toothbrush for guests who forget theirs. Here are nine of the most extravagant nights that platinum credit cards can buy:...
