Millionaire habits : how to achieve financial independence, retire early, and make a difference by focusing on yourself first / Steve Adcock.

Summary:

"This book is divided into two parts. Part 1 discusses each of the ten millionaire habits and the millionaire wealth-building timeline. These habits are the building blocks for everything you do inside and outside your workplace. Millionaires use these habits to build money-making careers and live a life that's so satisfying that they can't wait to get up in the morning and start their day. Part 2 dives into FIRE, or Financial Independence Retire Early. Younger people use these millionaire habits to work hard for several years and then quit their jobs in their 30s or 40s (hint: this was us). FIRE won't be for everyone, but its tactics can still make you very, very rich throughout your life. If you don't want to retire early, that's okay! But don't skip this part of the book. Achieving financial freedom is still the goal, and you might be surprised at the lifestyle options that open up to you once you're there. If you are ready to put your old habits aside and start doing the things that attract wealth without thinking about it, continue reading. You're in the right place."-- Provided by publisher.
