“I realized that is more about habits, daily activities, these are the reasons behind your wealth or poverty, not what happens in business,” says Tom Corley.
Financial Advisor, he spent five years observing over 350 people “rich” and “poor”, analyzing how they live, work and sleep. Everything is explained in detail in the book that he published from this study, “Rich Habits: The Daily Success Habits of Wealthy Individuals”. In Corley’s book, the two groups were analyzed according to the criteria of American society and media. The “rich” are defined as those with annual incomes equal to or greater than $ 160,000 and who already have fortunes of at least $ 3.2 million and “poor” are those with annual incomes less than $ 30,000 and with assets of less than $ 5,000.
