• Great read, but don't take everything at face value
  Over the years i have read this book about a dozen times. I find this book incredibly inpsirational, and a very interesting and educational read. For myself, it has changed the way my family has earned, saved and spend. However, I don't aspire to be like the millionaires in this book.

• Measurement of Best Practices Overcomes "Stalled" Thinking
  A book like THE MILLIONAIRE NEXT DOOR has a value that goes well beyond its subject matter: It shows how often we have misconceptions about what is really going on around us. Such misconceptions can stall our progress by having us act in the wrong ways.
  Unless you had done similar research, you will probably be surprised by at least some of the findings of this book. The millionaires described here remind me of the ones I knew as a child, so the overall picture is familiar. What impresses me is that... more info
