A well read forum member would have a good idea of who they are. I doubt you'll get many if any that will answer your question. But maybe that's just me. I wouldn't step in and raise my hand to this question.

Does it devalue their advice to you or their knowledge if they only have $900,000? How about only $500,000? Is your million requirement liquid or net worth? Is their advice with more to you if they have 5 million? Your question speaks about your experience and limitations.

I agree with AC, you probably won't get a direct answer to your question. However, you never know, ask a better question, get a better answer.

Good luck.

Besides MJ, how many people on this forum are actual millionaires?

And if you are a millionaire, what is your business?

I'm just really curious, thanks.


This is a very lazy question. You are not curious enough. If you were, you would have already searched the forums and found your answer.

But.. who cares anyway? You still have to do the work to get there.

They're here, it's possible, go make it happen.

It used to be rude to ask someone how much money they made
Of course it ALSO used to be rude to brag about how much money you made
Days gone by maybe :(

I remember those days well.

Rhode Island for now.
I'll bite.

I might be a millionaire, I might not, I'm not really sure. It's simply the last thing I think about.
I'm motivated by a lot more than dollars to own the business I do.


I think wealth is a state of mind. People fixate on a number, and million is still the standard...
A million in the bank, free and clear, is different than owning a million in real estate.

And none of that means much about wealth and freedom.

Million is just one mark on the road to whatever motivates you.
$1.2M, 1.4M, .5M, .1M, 250M...

they are all just numbers.

Millionaire is a mindset that anyone can have, no matter how much money they currently posses.
I think that's what this forum is about and why people choose to spend time here.

Cash flow greater than expenses,
no non-performing debt,
your output is helping many,
you and your family are healthy and happy,
you have everything you want,
I think these are better measures of success than a number.

I followed the science; all I found was money.

I am not here just to get a millionaire mindset. I already have that, but it's worth nothing. Thinking is nothing, if there is nothing tangible in the physical world. I am here to gain tools on how to be a multi-millionaire, and throw ideas out to see how others respond, which is different than mindset alone. That's why the book isn't called, "Think Rich. Be Rich: guide to the psychology of millionaires". Every dollar is one step closer to financial freedom.

I can pretend all I want that I am a millionaire, I am free, I am making value to the world.... but if I am not actually doing that, then I am not a millionaire. I am not here to pursue my passion, on my goals in life, or anything like that. I'll do almost anything to be a millionaire business-wise, but a lot of roads are close for me, since I am not going to wait 5 yrs before I see a 16% of success. No, next yr I am going to rock the world.

If the world isn't paying me for my value, then I am going to quit what I am doing, and find something that works. I have yet found something that works, but I haven't really tried yet . Money is what matters more than any material substance on this world besides water, but money can buy water... water can't buy money unless it can use for a country, and the millionaire mentality isn't going to give me freedom, money is. I wouldn't have read that book by MJ if it wasn't for the fact that I want to be a millionaire, not pretend to be, I can take an acting course in that. Millionaire mentality will just put me on the sidewalk.

I don't think I might be. I will be.

1 million dollar does stand for something, and so does 10 million. It means nothing if the wrong person possess it.

I think it sounds like she just wants to get to know you better, she probably looks for a good personality. haha

Disagree completely.

When you think like a millionaire, you can't help become it.

The Secret is kind of true in this aspect.

When your mind thinks like a millionaire, you see opportunity everywhere and the stars align, blah blah, and you meet the people you need.

I was out and met a middle eastern financier with an interest in small American business this weekend.

Are you kidding me? If my mind wasn't changed I would have thought that was a cool relationship, now I know it is a great opportunity.

The way you think is THE MOST important thing about you.
