You'll find neat things like:
Most millionaires don't have, and have not had in many years, car payments.
Most millionaires do not spend more than the average person for things like clothing or shoes.
Most millionaires do not invest in single stocks, they diversify in mutual funds.

I would also endorse Millionaire Next Door as well as "The Richest man in Babylon" By George Clayson

The millionaire next door has some very good insights to the common traits and disciplines of mostly, self made millionaires....." The Richest Man in Babylon" gave me my first inkling of the difference between what makes one rich or poor. It encompasses so many of the general principles of wealth in an easy read.
