Curate your network with people who are:

Your network is your net worth.

2. Stop Buying New Cars

After 1 minute of purchasing a brand-new car, it may lose up to 11% of its value.

Millionaires buy used cars because:

Don't invest in negative returns.

3. Pay off Credit Card Debt

47% of American adults carry credit card debt.

Why credit card debt is bad:

- Lowers credit score
- Decreased cash flow
- Pay extra fees & charges

4. Invest in what's Proven, Not what's Sexy

Avoid being tempted to invest your life savings into hot, new investments.

"Sexy" investments could cost you:

- Energy
