10 Steps to Becoming a Millionaire

// A THREAD //

Number 8 will help a lot of people.
1. Become financially stable

Do not just wish and dream, but take action.

Financial independence is not an accident; it is a commitment and a lifestyle.

It is an inconvenience that many do not want to do.

If you want what you have never had, do what you have never done.
2. Understand how money works

You cannot fix what you ignore.

Get yourself familiar with money and how it works.

You could:

- Read books
- Learn money topics
- Study what successful people do
- Be financially literate

To master anything, you have to understand it.
3. Improve your relationship with money

Many view money as a status symbol and squander it.

They

- Show off
- Buy clothes, cars & houses
- Go on trips

Money is a tool to build wealth and buy freedom.

Use your money, rather than allowing it to run your life.
4. Be on a budget

A budget is a tool to help you realize your dreams.

Use it to:

- Plan for the future
- Control expenses
- Invest in assets
- Set aside money for fun

A budget is a road map to your financial future.
5. Reduce spending

No matter your income, if you spend more than you earn, you will not build wealth.

Live below your means and give your money a purpose.

There is a reason why self-made millionaires live far below their means.
6. Avoid bad debt

Rich people use debt to leverage investments and grow their cash flows.

Poor people use debt to buy things that make the rich richer.

If you do not pay off your debt, you will not save or invest money.

You will be trapped in the rat race for a long time.
7. Invest

Many people do not know what to buy and just speculate.

Buy low-cost index funds, which have proven to beat many actively managed funds.

The goal is to build wealth over time.

Do not gamble, but put money to work for you.
8. Buy more assets

Earning more is good, but money needs to work for you.

They work in appreciating assets.

Assets are:

- Real estate
- Index funds or ETFs
- Crypto
- Stocks

Wealth accumulation happens by investing in assets, not relying on income.
9. Reduce taxes

Taxes are one of the biggest expenses for most people.

The poor and middle class do not know how to reduce taxes.

Wealthy find legal ways to shelter income and decrease tax liability.

Learn the tax laws and use them for your benefit.
10. Use wealth for the common good

Wealthy people are generous and seek to help others.

The point of building wealth is also to uplift those who need money.

Being greedy and selfish will not draw money to you. Investing in your community will.

15 Rules of Success

// A THREAD //

You will be surprised by number 9.
1. Have a plan and a vision

If you do not know where you want to go, you cannot make any progress.

Life will always surprise you and you will not be excited about the future.

Have a target, a clear goal on which all your efforts are focused.

Planning is the key to success.
2. If you don’t ask the answer is No

Asking for help is not harmful. The worse that can happen is a "no".

There is nothing that you want to do that has not been done yet.

Ask for:

- Help
- Promotion
- Opinion
- Raise

You miss every opportunity you don’t go for.

10 Ways You are Privileged if you live in a First-World Country.

//A THREAD//

You will be surprised by number 9.
1. Education

Education is for the rich. There are no scholarships or loans.

There is no future because good-paying jobs require a degree.

Starting a business is usually the avenue to make ends meet for those without an education.
2. Food

Food is a basic need in developed countries. It is a luxury in poor countries.

People's entire focus is to find food to feed their families.

In developed countries, you eat when it is time. In poor countries, you eat when you are hungry.
