The 2% Rule: Only a Fraction of the Population Achieves This Kind of Wealth
About this ebook
The people who reach the top 2% of net worth are not geniuses. They are not lucky in ways that most of us cannot replicate. They are certainly not the one-percenters that populist rhetoric describes. They are people who made a series of specific decisions, often boring ones, and then had the discipline to stick with those decisions for a very long time.
This book identifies the specific behaviors, decisions, and strategies of people who have reached the top 2% of net worth in this country. The difference between those who succeed and those who do not has almost nothing to do with income and almost everything to do with a set of rules that the second group followed and the first group did not. I call this collection of rules the 2% Rule.
Inside, you'll discover:
• The 2% threshold and how much net worth you actually need
• The wealth formula almost nobody follows with three simple variables
• The income escalator and how to increase your earning power
• The ownership mindset that separates the wealthy from everyone else
• How to avoid the lifestyle creep trap that destroys high earners
• The multiple streams imperative for building passive income
• The stealth wealth principle and why visible consumption is the enemy
The 2% Rule is not about being exclusionary or creating an elite club. It is about understanding that roughly 2% of the population has reached a level of wealth that changes their relationship with money. They are no longer working for money. Money is working for them.
