Build your financial future--and give back to others--by putting yourself and your family first
Millionaire Habits: How to Achieve Financial Independence, Retire Early, and Make a Difference by Focusing on Yourself First is an easy-to-read and practical roadmap for financial independence and security. In the book, author Steve Adcock explores why "saving money" isn't a goal in and of itself, but rather the end product of the personal wealth equation: Wealth = Income + Investments - Lifestyle.
He shows you how to build a healthy financial future by focusing on yourself and your family first, making those most important to you your first priority as you plan ahead. You'll learn to develop a "healthy selfishness," which will allow you to put yourself in a financial and personal position to help others and give back to your loved ones, your neighbors, your community, and more.
An essential and invigorating resource for working families, professionals at any stage of their careers, self-employed people, and anyone else looking for an effective way to build a resilient and lucrative financial future, Millionaire Habits is the actionable strategy guide for personal finance that regular people everywhere have been waiting for.
