Newly published as a 'limited edition'
The Millionaire Next Door's Wealth Report

In any field, there are must-read books, like the Bible.
In the field of economics and management, it is 『The Millionaire Next Door』.
There is a reason why this book has repeatedly come back to readers in new forms.
This newly adapted book, although published over 20 years ago, feels like it has been in a different place.
This is because the laws of wealth owned by the super-rich have a firmly established immutable element.
Of course, considering the circumstances of the time, the economic value of a million dollars at that time and its current value are worlds apart, but the fundamentals have not changed.
This is the thorough economic sense that only millionaires have.
From now on, we will look into their unique economic philosophy and trivial lifestyle habits that they deeply adhere to through this book.


Since the beginning of the capitalist economy, people's greatest concern has been 'getting rich'.
As class society collapsed and the sanctuary of wealth collapsed, ordinary people also dreamed of becoming rich, and they constantly looked into and observed the lives of the rich to learn something special from them.

Thomas J., who decided to study how to become rich.
Stanley and William D.
Danko began to investigate the neighborhoods where the wealthy lived.
Then I discovered the surprising fact that among people who live in expensive houses and drive luxury cars, there are more people who are not truly rich.
The rich actually didn't live in rich neighborhoods.


A 20-year study of 12,000 wealthy people found that what they had in common wasn't luck, inheritance, or education, but spending habits.


Warren Buffett, the world's third-richest person and billionaire investment guru, has lived in the same house for 60 years and is famous for never spending more than $3.17 on breakfast.
Facebook (Meta) CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who is ranked among the top 10 richest people in the world, wears a T-shirt and jeans and drives a compact car. He reportedly spends more time on his network than on deciding what to wear or what car to drive.
Ingvar Kamprad, founder of the global furniture company IKEA, lives a frugal life, frequently flying economy class and using city buses.

"The Millionaire Next Door" shows that the restrained lifestyle habits that appear in the stories of self-made people are not trivial episodes that accompany great achievements, but rather the core of the law of wealth.
Even though the standards of the rich and the map of wealth have changed dozens of times in the history of capitalism that spans over 200 years, there are laws that only the rich have followed that remain unchanged.

Into the book
**Millionaires live much more frugally than their wealth suggests.
He wears a cheap suit and drives a domestic car.
Only a few people drive new cars.
Also, only a small number of people rent cars.
Most millionaire spouses are very planners and very meticulous about budgeting.
In fact, only 18% of millionaires disagree with the statement, “Only when I have money can I think about helping others.”
Most spouses are much more conservative about money than millionaires.


** Unfortunately, some people judge others by their possessions, such as food, drinks, suits, watches, and cars.
It is believed that talented people have unique tastes even in everyday items.
However, it is much easier to purchase things that symbolize economic power than to actually have economic power.
When you spend time and money trying to appear competent, the results are predictable.
Economic ability is falling behind.
What three words describe the rich? "Savings, savings, and more savings!"

** Most people who marry a consumer-oriented person will never become wealthy in one generation.
If one of the two spouses is an overspender, they cannot accumulate wealth.
It can be especially difficult to accumulate wealth if one or both partners are working hard to build a successful business.
It is very difficult to accumulate wealth while continuing to overspend due to profligate spending habits.
Ever wonder why you're not rich? Take a look at your lifestyle.
Are you a good striker?

** While attending high school, Friend vowed that one day he would live much better than his parents.
To him, 'living well' meant living in a nice house in a wealthy neighborhood, having the whole family wear expensive clothes, drive fancy cars, join social clubs, and shop for expensive items at high-end stores.
I realized early on that to make that dream come true, I had to get a high-paying job and work very hard.
Friend never thought that 'accumulating wealth' was the way to live well.
In other words, for him, living well meant ‘showing off one’s high income with luxury items.’

** Living in an area with a lower cost of living allows you to invest more because you spend less.
House prices will be cheaper, and property taxes will be reduced accordingly.
The percentage of your neighbors driving luxury cars will also decrease.
So it will be much easier to catch up with or overtake the Jones family, and they will also accumulate wealth.

**Who is the miser in your family? In Dr. North's family, both the husband and wife are miserly.
Both men live frugally given their wealth.
Additionally, the two people work together to plan a systematic annual budget.
Neither of them is opposed to buying a used car.
Both of them also know how much their families spend annually on various goods and services.
Neither of them is opposed to sending their children to public elementary and high schools.
The Norths prioritize financial independence.

** Even among self-employed people, successful ones never take their financial position for granted.
Most middle-aged self-employed people have already experienced both good and bad economic times.
Therefore, they tend to offset the inevitable fluctuations in their business earnings by planning and investing.
Moreover, they must set up and manage their own pension plans.
You are responsible for your own present and future financial situation.
In most cases, only self-employed people with strong self-discipline survive financially for a long time.

** Why do these millionaires buy new cars instead of used ones? Why are they less sensitive to car prices than used car buyers? First, people who buy new cars do so because they like new cars.
Of course, this isn't the only reason to buy a new car.
They believe that buying a new car is much simpler than buying a used car because it requires less time and effort.
These millionaires believe that new cars are more reliable and have easier choices in models, colors, and accessories.
In fact, they believe it is natural to pay more to get better things.

** Supporting your child's education is like teaching him how to fish.
But Mary's mother approached her daughter and son-in-law in a completely different way.
He taught them how to consume and made them think of themselves as 'fish-distributing machines'.

** Sarah felt pity for her parents.
Especially to my father.
My father, who had worked very hard and sacrificed to become a wealthy businessman, was determined to ensure that his children would not have to work so hard or take risks to become independent.
However, the driving force behind my father's success as a wealthy businessman was his willingness and ability to work hard, take risks, and make sacrifices.
Anyway, like many successful people, my father forgot how he became rich.

1,000 rich people tracked for 20 years!

Something that doesn't change even after decades,
The 'core laws of the rich's income and consumption' have been revealed in detail!

The millionaires featured in this book are people who can live without working for years.
He is not from the Rockefeller or Vanderbilt families, which are representative wealthy families in the United States.
These are people who have accumulated wealth through hard work, simply starting and ending each day meaningfully.
They haven't won the lottery, they haven't signed with a major league team as professional baseball players, and they aren't pop singers or Hollywood actors who sign huge contracts.
Or, it's not like you suddenly became rich overnight through stocks, stock options, or real estate investments.
The odds of getting rich that way are less than 0.025%.
These are just ordinary people in our neighborhood who have steadily earned money and accumulated wealth and become rich.


Their stories don't contain any special methods that are difficult for ordinary people to access, such as investing in promising businesses or buying real estate in good locations.
The way they accumulated wealth is realistic and anyone can do it if they put their mind to it.
It presents seemingly trivial but proven rules such as, 'Never spend more than your income', 'Never buy a house that requires a loan of more than twice your income', 'The more wealthy a neighborhood you live in, the more your assets decrease', and 'You can become rich just by quitting smoking'.

People who are uncertain about the future of fine wine vs.
A person who is happy about tomorrow even with cheap bottled beer

What kind of life will you choose?

What are the secrets of these wealthy people, who don't live in luxury villas, but rather in apartments of similar size and atmosphere, and even drive cheaper cars, yet possess wealth ten times greater than mine? The author of this book, after 20 years of tracking them, clearly identified seven commonalities.


* 7 things millionaires have in common

1.
I have a habit of spending less and investing the rest.
2.
I consider efficient allocation of time, money, and energy to be of the utmost importance.
3.
Prioritize economic independence over social status.
4.
Accumulate wealth without parental help and use it to educate your children.
5.
Encourage families to achieve economic independence.
6.
Actively pursue new market opportunities.
7.
Self-employed or professional.

Of course, many of these we already know.
But if I had to list the things I'm practicing, I probably wouldn't be able to count them on one hand.
This is the difference between millionaires and us.
Now that you know, all that's left is to put it into practice.
There are no more excuses.
If you know the secrets of millionaires but don't put them into practice, your neighbors will accumulate even greater wealth in the future.
