內容簡介

內容簡介 Eight years ago, Dr. Thomas J. Stanley swept aside the mythical magic curtain of wealth to reveal The Millionaire Next Door. America found out just who and how common the truly wealthy were in this country�and we learned the characteristics and habits that made them so. Now the author of the follow-up The Millionaire Mind focuses on one of the least understood but increasingly rich demographics: Millionaire Women Next Door.�Why write another book that profiles millionaires?� Stanley asks. �The vast majority of the millionaire respondents (92 percent) in The Millionaire Next Door were men. . . . I felt that it was indeed time for successful businesswomen of the self-made variety to be heard.� And heard they are in this book that is destined to become every bit as informative, quoted, and inspirational as the author�s earlier works. Readers everywhere will be fascinated by Stanley�s thoroughly researched findings and conclusions. More than a simple extension of his studies of male millionaires, Millionaire Women Next Door presents groundbreaking concepts involving the nature, lifestyle, and business choices of successful American women that reach far beyond the scope of the author�s previous studies. The book examines the choice of businesses elected by self-employed women, ranking over 150 categories in terms of their profitability and probability of success. It also describes the women�s background, highlighting the fact that most millionaire women were raised in nurturing family environments that were literally training grounds for success, instilling the values that make this group one of the most generous in American society as demonstrated by its level of giving to charities, family, and friends. While many characteristics such as frugality and simplicity of lifestyle are similar to those of their male counterparts, Stanley demonstrates that most millionaire women work harder and do better�at school, in business, and in investment practices. Millionaire Women is sure to be one of the most read, reviewed, and discussed books to come out this year. Make your own wise investment for a wealth of solid sales. "Most Americans are not free.

各界推薦

各界推薦 作者Thomas J. Stanley繼《The Millionaire Next Door》一書在美國暢銷之後，他又乘勝追擊出版了《Millionaire Women Next Door》，轉換研究對象，調查女富婆的致富特質。 Thomas J. Stanley調查了2,500名年收入在475萬美元的女性，他發現了一些在她們身上的特質是我們沒有想到的。首先財富從來不是她們追求的直接目標，她們其實都很節儉，開舊車、住在一般中產階級的房子，她們也大都有小孩與先生，她們也不會像慾望城市中的女性會對貴重的東西上癮，在發表此書之後， Stanley對於這些特質其實在意料之中，因為物質上的享受並非這些有錢女性的目的，她們只是想在以男性為主的權力世界中找到認同自己的能力，而財富只是附加的價值。
