The ONE thing most Millionaires do that makes them Millionaires

This is such a simple concept that so many people miss entirely or just don’t fully understand. But the people who are financially successful seem to practice this on auto-pilot without even thinking about It, and this is what it is. Enjoy! Add me on Instagram/Snapchat: GPStephan

The thing is, when it comes to growing your wealth and eventually crossing the million-dollar mark, no matter what you do, the reality is that you can only do so much on your own…you WILL need help. And this is what many current millionaires understand really, really well. There’s only so much they can generate on their own before they reach a plateau in terms of performance, and this is where this strategy kicks in and takes over.

Consider this - even if you’re able to SAVE $50,000 per year after your expenses and taxes, it’s going to take you 20 YEARS to become a millionaire. So what do most financially successful people do, instead? They get help…in the form of using their money to work for them.

This is what nearly EVERY SINGLE financially successful person I’ve ever met does. No matter WHAT you do, whether you’re paid hourly, paid on a commission, or paid passively…beyond a certain level, you will NEED to put your money to work to make you more money. The money you save is most valuable money you have, and it has the potential to grow far beyond what you can earn with your time.

And this is what almost every single millionaire I’ve ever met does…they will work, save, invest, repeat. But the “invest” part snowballs to a point where eventually, you make more money through your investments than you can possibly earn with your time. Even now, I’d say the money I make from buying properties and INVESTING almost matches the income I make as a Real Estate Agent….this is powerful, because I’ve essentially almost doubled my income without doubling my work load. I’m sure over the next few years, I’ll actually start making MORE investing than I can earn with my own time as a Realtor.

So you will, too, at some point in time, do the same thing if you want to expedite your wealth. Utilize your money as a TOOL to generate more money in the form of investing. And this, unfortunately is what most people miss - even though it’s obvious, only a small percentage of people actually do this. So just by knowing and being conscious of this with your money, you’ll be in a better position to take advantage of this and eventually have your investments working for you, instead of you working for money. Investing, above everything else, is going to be the clear path to be independently, financially independently.

Couldn't agree with you more. I don't really even think if I "should" invest, it's sort of the priority and everything else is secondary. Literally, money goes into the appropriate accounts each month before I pay a single bill or expense.

Hey I just watched you how I became a millionaire at 26 video, I had a question. Before you bought your first rental property, did you buy a house for yourself or did you rent?

[CommandoMaster]

Passive income is the best part when it comes to investing. Cash flow is king. Your time should be more valuable than the money you earn.

[InvestingHustler]

"Have your money work for you, instead of you working for money" The exact subject of the book I just read "Rich Dad Poor Dad". I recommend to everyone.
Graham, you have any good financial/wealth book you recommend? Ty

[HamishHodder]

You're so enthusiastic about people smashing that subscribe button how could anyone resist? ;)

[frankhtlllful]

Ur living the life Graham! I'll be happy with financial independence for now. Will get there in about 5 years and hopefully find something that will make me accelerate that! Well see how it goes!

This is (in part) why income inequality is skyrocketing! It's harder to save/invest when your living expenses are high relative to your earned income. Making 65k and taking home maybe 48k? After all your living expenses, bills, student loans, etc. you have less to invest. Meanwhile, if you're a multimillionaire with 2.5M in assets, you can conservatively have $150k coming in from dividends alone! Re-invest even some of that, and you'll never run out of money! It's extremely hard to do in high COL cities when you're early in your career just starting out, but I have a goal to invest half of my take home pay. It ain't easy, but I may not have to give up living life and enjoying my youth to do so. If I can't? Well that's a cost vs benefit analysis I'll have to consider for myself.

Hey graham can you do a video about property managers? Like when they are necessary for investors, how much commission they should be paid, all of the functions that a good prop manager should do Etc. These are all questions I’ve had for quite some time and I’d be interested to hear your thoughts!
