Are you wealthy? What is it that the wealthy do differently than the poor? There has been a lot of research recently on the mindset, habits and choices that the wealthy make that distinguish them. Today, 10 super secret habits of the wealthy.
How do you define being wealthy? “Wealthy” can vary depending on where you live. For example, in a recent Realtor.com article, San Jose ranked #1 (that’s not good) as the least affordable market. The average home mortgage uses 72.4% of the owner’s monthly income. Wow! To put that into comparison, New York City is only 46.6% and Atlanta only 19.8%. So, being wealthy in San Jose will take more income than say Detroit.
But, what do the wealthy do differently; how do they think that makes the biggest difference? You would be surprised to find that intelligence has very little to do with it. In this episode of the Family Before Fortune Podcast we look at 10 traits and habits of the wealthy, ways they are different.
