In The Top Ten Distinctions Between Millionaires and the Middle Class, by Keith Cameron Smith, Ballentine Books, 2007, Smith discusses ten distinctions in how middle-class thinking differs from how wealthy people think.
Here is a quick overview of the ten distinctions:
(1) Millionaires think long-term; whereas, the middle class thinks short term.
(2) Millionaires discuss ideas; whereas, the middle class talks about things and people.
(3) Millionaires embrace change; whereas, the middle class feels threatened by change.
(4) Millionaires take calculated risks; whereas, the middle class avoids risks.
(5) Millionaires continually learn; whereas, the middle class stops learning with school.
(6) Millionaires work for profits; whereas, the middle class works for wages.
(7) Millionaires believe they must be generous; whereas, the middle class believes that they can’t afford to be generous.
(8) Millionaires have multiple sources of income; whereas, the middle class has only one or two sources of income.
(9) Millionaires focus on increasing net worth; whereas, the middle class focuses on increasing paychecks.
(10) Millionaires ask empowering questions; whereas, the middle class asks questions that diminish power.
This is a fun, short book that can change how a person thinks about financial matters.
Rating: $$$$ out of five. It contains good, general ideas, but it takes knowing how to execute these ideas to turn them into money.
