- Summary:
- In this groundbreaking book, Russ Alan Prince and Lewis Schiff examine the far-reaching impact of the middle class millionaires- people who enjoy a net worth ranging from one to ten million dollars who have earned rather than inherited their wealth. Comprising 8.4 million households, these working rich are exerting a powerful influence on our attitudes and on society. They believe in the benefits of hard work. They believe in investing in themselves, and in supporting their values with their pocketbooks. From home security systems to health care, technology to travel, their spending choices are affecting the products that are available to us all. Based on extensive surveys and research into some 3500 middle class millionaires from around the country, THE MIDDLE-CLASS MILLIONAIRE will reshape our understanding of what it means to be affluent- and how all of us can achieve similar success.
