You're probably familiar with the phrase: "The rich get richer." But have you ever wondered why? I did.
I wanted to understand why it felt so impossible for me to acquire massive wealth, so I spent 36 years studying and interviewing more than 13,000 multimillionaires and middle classindividuals.
I discovered that the super wealthy have a different set of beliefs, philosophies and strategies than those who identify as "middle class." Their secret to getting rich wasn't in the mechanics of money; rather, it was their values and level of thinking that generated it.
In other words, to be a rich person, you have to think like a rich person. Once I learned to embrace this concept, the money started to flow; I started my own business and eventually became a self-made millionaire.
1. 'Working hard—even at a job I hate—will make me rich.'
Most people commit to jobs they consider "tolerable" — and they stick with it for years while simultaneously worrying about getting fired or dreaming of the day they finally get to retire. Why? Because they believe it's the most effective way to get rich.
2. 'You can't get rich without a formal education.'
Middle class individuals believe that their investments in formal education determines their wealth. But if the secret to building wealth was excellent grades, then every summa cum laude graduate would be a multimillionaire.
3. 'Getting rich isn't up to me.'
The average person believes being rich is a privilege awarded only to a few "lucky" people. Weiss puts it perfectly in her interview with Fatherly.com: "[Most] people who identify as middle class believe that whatever cards they're dealt with, their efforts and investments in education, professional skills, homeownership [...]" determines how much money they have.
4. 'Extreme wealth changes people ... for the worse.'
Contrary to popular belief, money can be a force for good. Based on my interviews, the majority of the middle class have a set of beliefs and philosophies that suggest success and money turns people into greedy, corrupt and uncaring oppressors.
But rich champions know that any kind of power, freedom or liberation reveals a person's true self. If you were a crook or a cheater before you got wealthy, for example, you'll probably be even worse once you do get rich. If you were honest, humble and hard-working before, you may become an even better person with expanded financial resources.
