Millionaire Women Next Door

Once again, Thomas Stanley wrote a book I really enjoyed.  He profiled American women with more than a million dollars in assets.  Here's what I learned about them: They live below their means.  Their cars cost less than $30,000, their homes less than $300,000 and they don't spend a lot of money. They are small business owners.  They have lots of assets and not necessarily a big salary. They have no debt. They do their own investing. They spend 10+ hours a week managing their finances, budget and investing. They are very generous, giving lots of time and money to family and good causes. Most people that know them would never guess they are millionaires. They are happy. They value being financially independent. They enjoy their work.  They work for themselves.
