Wheres the ACTUAL study?
Or did the author just call up 5 rich dudes?
Seriously are we taking this number as legitimate.. simply because it comes from a BOOK?
Is that how low our scientific standards have become?
Frickin Pixar verified that talking cars exist. Good enough for me!

- WalterBright 10y agoThe book describes the studies they used. (Correction, it's 80%. I had misremembered it.) You can get the book for $2.50 from Amazon, not a bad investment if you are interested in the topic.
- nickthemagicman 10y agoThe numbers are not correct or even science. Its one dude who uses that number to sell his pop psychology book. Heres a blog from the author about where he gets his numbers: 'In my thirty plus years of surveying and studying millionaires' http://www.thomasjstanley.com/2014/05/america-where-millionaires-are-self-made/ http://www.thomasjstanley.com/2014/05/america-where-milliona...
