Did you know that the owner of Ikea who is worth 23 BILLION drives a 1993 Volvo and is even known to use his bus pass to save money?

There's this book I read called "Inside The Millionaire Mind" and it reveals the lifestyles of a lot of the millionaires in America who have net worths in the millions.

- It said a lot of them get their shoes RESOLED (have new soles put on their shoes) instead of actually buying new shoe.

- A lot of them reupholster furniture instead of buying new

-They clip coupons to save money.

-Typical millionaire has a net worth of just 3 million and lives in a home valued at under $277,460
I see your multi-millionaire and raise you 4 others who drive bentleys, have tons of new shoes, have someone shop for them, and live in homes valued at 800k+.
