I don’t know about you, but I love to have my traditional way of thinking challenged.
One of my favorite things about this episode, is that nearly every bit of conventional wisdom I learned growing up is turned on its head.
When it comes to carving a path to wealth, there is a major difference in how the middle class and those who’ve actually managed to achieve a high net worth think about how to get there. From delegation and saving versus spending, to networking and negotiating, high net worth individuals look at seven key areas very differently from the majority of the middle class.
These differences in viewpoints, studies show, are among the key reasons only a few are successful at building wealth while many others are not. The good news though is, armed with these seven principles, you can put yourself in the minority.
