I became a millionaire in my 30s.

No side hustles. No inheritance. No tricks.

Here are 16 choices that made me rich:

1: I chose a high-paying career field (information technology), not liberal arts.

2: I cut out the losers. All you wanna do is drink? Bye.
2
3: I ignored the haters.

4: I never paid a single dollar in credit card interest in my life.

5: I was one of the first ones in the office, every day (this works more than you think).
3
6: I never watched the news. The news is built around negativity. That's not what makes us rich.

7: Rather than hating millionaires, I learned from them. I took notes. Rich people are great teachers.

8: I switched companies regularly. 15 to 20% raise every time. Easy money.
4
9: Exploited my 9 to 5. Got in early. Invested. Never complained. I got promotion after promotion.

10: Automated everything. Investing. Savings. Bill paying. Everything was on auto-pilot.

11: I didn't care if my neighbor bought a BMW. I refused to keep up with their debt.
5
12: I stopped the bar runs. Booze ain't cheap. Booze at bars is worse.

13: I prioritized well. Health > Family > Wealth. Without the first two, the third is meaningless.

14: I said "yes" to every opportunity, even if I didn't know how to do it. I figured it out along the way.
6
15: My wife and I had "money talks" every day. We'd walk the dogs after dinner and talk money.

16: Index funds. No day trading. No picking and choosing stocks. Index funds = Easy button to getting rich.
