Stop Acting Rich: ...And Start Living Like A Real Millionaire Overview
A leading expert on the affluent reveals the real way to build wealth
With well over two million of his books sold, and huge praise from many media outlets, Dr. Thomas J. Stanley is a recognized and highly respected authority on the wealthy, their behavior, and their thinking. Now, in Stop Acting Rich, he details how the less affluent have fallen into the elite luxury brand trap that keeps them from truly acquiring wealth and details how to get out of it by emulating the working rich as opposed to the super elite.
A defensive strategy for tough times, Stop Acting Rich will show you how to live like Warren Buffett-a rich, happy life-through accumulating more wealth and using it to achieve the type of financial freedom that will create true happiness and fulfillment.
- Puts wealth in perspective and shows you how to live rich without spending more
- Details why we spend lavishly and how to stop this destructive cycle
- Discusses how being "rich" means more than just big houses and luxury cars
- Other titles by Stanley: The Millionaire Mind and The Millionaire Next Door
It's time to understand why we buy what we buy, so that we can start accumulating, rather than depleting, wealth. Stop Acting Rich shows you exactly what it takes to achieve this elusive goal.
Customer Reviews
I absolutely adored "The Millionaire Next Door" and lent my copy to measure regularly. The message of this book was spot-on and gave back hills of research to get it on. I grew up with parents were Depression-, value-oriented and they were cheap. They did not, and splurged on things important to them, but do not waste cents. I remember eating and not be able to order a cheeseburger and ordered a hamburger, such as cheese costs 5 cents more andwas not worth it. Cars were a means of transport and were driven until it is too unreliable. The cars were ordered, without a radio, which pays not to listen to the radio when they started, so why do something that you do not want to use?
As an adult, I maintained much of the basic philosophy of not caring what others think of you and make money, does what on the basis of me and my family happy. I have friends who drove the BMW, which hadthe big house, which took the expensive holiday (the philosophy that has been experienced by that if you can afford the payment, you can) afford it. Now that I'm in my late 40s and time moves forward, many of those same friends went bankrupt, had the house, on the basis of income, etc., and some are going through a difficult time of sale with the current economy abandon. Save as boring and I was actually laughed more money from a friend who then declared bankruptcy.Even after all this, it seems that most people really do not learn the lesson. Once they are capable of spending on luxury goods ramps back up, poor support for savings is made, and they are no better than they were before.
The series of books by Thomas Stanley really hits the nail on the head, which is really rich (especially as an asset of $ 1,000,000 or more defined) and those who are spending as fast as it comes, so that they live and What I know, theLifestyle of the "rich". What started the first book in his other books, including the most recent "Stop Acting Rich ... and begin to live like a millionaire Real Gone." I would love for all these books compulsory reading for students just before entering the world of work. It would be enlightening for a lot of them and those who "get it" could be saved a lot of financial errors.
My conclusion to this book:
2) Poke holes in the knowledge that money and buy things to make you happy
3) killed the perception that people spend, the "rich" to inspire a generous amount of money on luxury items like cars, houses and other things that people around them.
4) If the reader is left with nothing but the expression "great learning no cattle" it's worth it.
5) On the negative side- E 'rather than to repeat, especially when large amounts of time on certain items - for example, has spent the price of wine purchased and the number of bottles at home
Many people will not like the message - it speaks of an "Inconvenient Truth" - but we should all listen.
