Sure, they may have some extravagant habits, but it's highly likely they also follow the same key money rules that help them increase and protect their wealth.

Sure, they may have some extravagant habits, but it’s highly likely they also follow the same key money rules that help them increase and protect their wealth. Even if you haven’t yet amassed a fortune of your own, you can benefit from doing the same. Here are five: They don't spend everything they earn “Most people make a living, spend what they feel they need to enjoy their lives and then dutifully save what is left. Unfortunately, that’s often little or nothing,” says Steve Martin, a Certified Financial Planner and senior managing director at BKD Wealth Advisors in Chicago. “Successful people, on the other hand, make a living and then first set aside the amount needed to reach their goals.” They don't miss opportunities to grow their wealth Sustainably wealthy people don’t stop after securing a well-paying job; they’re constantly looking for ways to improve themselves and their financial pictures —whether it’s by working toward raises and promotions, finding passive income sources or starting a business. And as they increase their income, they make sure not to increase their lifestyle expenses at the same rate. They don't make emotional financial decisions Understandably, it’s not always easy to put your emotions aside when it comes to money, which is why it’s important to create systems that prevent irrational decisions — adhering to a 24-hour cooling-off period before making any big money move, say. They don't put all their eggs in one basket That means that rather than, say, hinging their retirement security on the success of their employer’s own stock, or spending all their savings on real estate projects, successful people aim for several different sources of wealth — then look at them holistically as part of one, big portfolio.

They don't go it alone But getting help doesn’t always mean paying for financial advice. If you find yourself in uncharted financial territory, you can consult friends who’ve faced a similar situation with success, research expert analysis online or leverage technology. From apps like Acorns and other robo-advisors that help you start investing, to platforms like Mint and You Need a Budget, there are plenty of tools out there to help you make great financial choices and set you on the path to long-term financial success.
