📘 The millionaire next door by Thomas J. Stanley

The book examines what distinguishes ordinary, well‑educated earners from those who build real, lasting wealth in the United States. It argues that inheritance, advanced degrees, or extraordinary intelligence are rarely the main drivers of riches. Instead, the authors highlight the common traits of today’s millionaires: live below their means, save vigorously, and invest wisely. Reviewing census data, surveys, and financial histories, the authors reveal surprising patterns in income, spending, and wealth accumulation that challenge conventional wisdom about wealth creation.

First publish date: 1996
