I graduated from Harvard Business School with a 1.2 GPA.

In hindsight, I’m surprised I didn’t drop out of college because I spent every second daydreaming about becoming a millionaire. And sure enough, I amassed more than ten million dollars aged 23. Yay.

Every day, I receive a lot of emails from people who want to get ridiculously wealthy (like me). They dream about having a ten-bedroom mansion with an outdoor pool. They also think my potty-trained tarantula is impressive.

Anyway, you clicked on this article for a reason. You want to know how I became a millionaire. So, without further delay, I’m going to share the daily habits that enabled me to amass a net worth of $10 million. Hopefully, they’ll make you rich, too.

I Keep My Expenses As High As Possible

Most people will say to keep your expenses lower than your income. But as you can already tell, I’m not like most people. In fact, I’m so far above the norm that I always do the opposite of conventional wisdom. It’s what makes me unique.

Each month, I spend approximately $25,000 on the necessities of life. For example, I hire several personal chefs and butlers to clean the mansion and cater to my every need. Sure, money won’t make you happy. However, it can make you feel relaxed as you don’t have to do the dishes or vacuum dog poop.

It’s also worth mentioning that I’m the CEO of twelve different companies. The reason? I can deduct every single expense from my taxes. So, I can subtract the cost of a first-class plane ticket because I’m a professional aviation blogger with 23 monthly views. I also eat out at fancy restaurants because I run a Substack blog with one subscriber: my mother.

If you want to be a millionaire (like me), act like one. Or, at the very least, be a rich snob who doesn’t want to pay taxes.
