7 rules self-made millionaires live by
2008-06-01 02:30:00 Treat money as something to save and invest. The minute you receive your paycheck or a windfall (example, an inheritance or a bonus), think of how much you can put away as savings.Assume some risk when investing.

But it is in taking calculated risks that they are rewarded.Live simply. Some millionaires have lived in the same homes they have had for the past 30-40 years.

Instead, you?ll find these millionaires working at their desks at 8 a.m. and having just two cars in the garage.Have a goal. By being specific, you will be more motivated to reach your goal. For instance, make it your goal to have your own home by the time y...
