This is another reason that I lean toward listening to people like these billionaires. Even though they have immense wealth, they’re still not quite living the “high life.”
The list includes:
- Warren Buffet
- Carlos Slim Helú
- Ingvar Kamprad
- Chuck Feeney (By the way, there’s an interesting documentary on Chuck Feeney on YouTube called “Secret Billionaire: The Chuck Feeney Story“)
- Frederik Meijer
I’d say the take-away from this is:
“The dirty little secret of some of the world’s wealthiest people is that they rarely act like it. Instead of over-the-top spending, they’re busy figuring out how to save and invest to have that much more in the future. It’s a habit you might want to consider in order to build up your own little storehouse of cash.“
