Breaking your poor habits, and forming habits of the rich


"Chains of habits are too light to be felt until they are too heavy to be broken"......Warren buffet.



Somebody said" humans are creatures of habit, and a lot of us creatures are in debt, bad debt's, that's not good to our wellbeing.

Bad habits toward money, like rationalizing purchases ("hey, I deserve this!".....("I work hard for this money so I deserve the best of it)

  • Assurming you'll make more money later on.
  • You disorganized your bills
  • Don't budget or keep track of your money
  • You're an impulse spender.
The right opposite of bad habits, Good habits. Can bring you from anywhere you are now financially and accelerate you to your desire financial positions because the vast majority of rich people didn't reach were they're now accidentally. Acccumulating wealth requires hard work, dedication, and-most importantly-maintaining a specific set of habits that foster prosperity.

Corley be a financial planner and author who spent five years studying millionaires. He wasn't out to discover the investment strategies they shared. He wanted to find out general stuff, like how they lived. What TV shows they watched, what they ate, thoses habits can be as crucial to building wealth as investing in the right stocks.

Corley interviewed 233 people who make at least $160,000 a year in gross income and have $3.2million in net assets the majority of them, 177 in all, were self made millionaires.


Those creatures obviously have the right habits to acquire wealths, but what about the other side of that coin? Did low-income earners shared the same lifestyle habits."

Corley interviewed 128 Americans who make $35,000 or less in gross annual income and have $5,000 or less liquid assets.

1.plan and set goals:

Setting short-term, midterm, and long-term financial goals has being one closer quality the rich and super-rich have in common, it is an important step toward becoming financially secure, if you're not working toward anything specific, you're likely to spend more than you should. You will then come-out short when you need money for unexpected bills, not to mention when you retire, you might get stuck in a vacious cycle of credit card debt and feel like you never have enough cash to get properly insured. Leaving you more vulnerable than you need to be to handle some of life's major risks.

No! Rich people are goals-setters, they list what the want to achieve daily, weekly, monthly and they can tell you were they want to be in 20 years. Why poor people just sort of wing it.

2.Don't overspend:

are you a chronic overspender if you start each month with great intentions and spend according to a set plan, but eventually find yourself making mindless purchases justified by what ever dangerous "a little won't hurt" attitude, you're likely facing an empty bank and severe buyers remorse by the end of the month.

The simplest and surest path to wealth is to save money and invest it, it's like planting an acorn and washing it sprout into a tree. When the problem of millions of Americans is acquiring an acorn to plant.

A 2018 federal reserve report found that four in 10 adults wouldn't be able to cover an unexpected $400 expense much less an emergency fund. The US bureau of labour statistics, put it at 6% the lowest level since the 2008 financial crisis.


Once you realize you've chipped away at what ever cushion you had in place, you're left scrambling for money,-or worse, using credit cards to cover your bad moves. Overspending is often a learned behavior that can result from emotional issues (I am in a bad mood, so I'm going shopping). Family upbringing ("I couldn't afford much as a kid, but now I can") or even lifestyle inflation ("I got a raise so I deserve a new car"). It's not always easy to recognize your own negative patterns, so take some time to check your behavior and determine be whether you're overspending each month.

3. They are financial educated:

Hardly a chance you went to a wealthy man home and you won't found a library, full of money making machines. The library comes before those luxurious house.

Naturally, most if not all of us reading this post want and crave for those better stuff, it is all part of us,we all want those bigger, house cars, and good things for our family, in other to have what you don't have you must start doing those things you haven't done before, and start to visit bookstores you haven't visit before.
