After Studying 233 Millionaires, I Found 6 Habits That Fast-Track Wealth | Entrepreneur
Briefly

A five-year investigation examined daily habits of 233 individuals, including 177 self-made millionaires and 128 people living in poverty. Entrepreneurship produced significantly faster wealth accumulation: individuals relying on saving and investing averaged 32 years to amass $3.3 million, while entrepreneurs reached $7.4 million in 12 years. Entrepreneurs can create multiple income streams, scale businesses and directly influence financial outcomes, unlike employees tied to fixed salaries. Wealth-building success depends on adopting specific daily 'Rich Habits.' Eighty percent of self-made millionaires set specific, long-term goals and focus on them daily. Clear, actionable goal-setting is highlighted as a key entrepreneurial habit.
Entrepreneurship is the quickest path to wealth, offering the potential to bypass the slow grind of traditional saving and investing. I am a CPA, Certified Financial Planner and author of Rich Habits: The Routines Millionaires Use Daily That Will Help You Build Wealth. Over a five-year period, I studied the daily habits of 233 wealthy individuals, of which 177 were self-made millionaires, and 128 people living in poverty.
My research shows that self-made millionaires who pursued entrepreneurship built wealth faster than those who relied on saving and investing as employees. In my five-year Rich Habits Study, "Saver-Investors" took an average of 32 years to accumulate $3.3 million, while entrepreneurs reached $7.4 million in just 12 years. This gap highlights entrepreneurship's potential to compress the wealth-building timeline. Entrepreneurs can create multiple income streams, scale businesses and directly influence financial outcomes, unlike employees tied to fixed salaries.
