While waitressing in high school, I met the millionaires that lived in our small community. They would share stories of their travels, and their lives sounded amazing.
I realized the one thing that would make my miserable life fantastic was moola! Once I had money, everything in my life would be awesome.
To achieve the life I wanted, I chose a career where I could help people and make unlimited money.
My ideal client was a male entrepreneur that owned a small business. They were driven, focused, made quick decisions, and liked my thought process and follow-through. One of my first referrals was to a client who was a centimillionaire. This client’s advice changed my entire life.
What is a centimillionaire?
A centi millionaire is an individual whose net worth equals or exceeds 100 million dollars.
While millionaire is most commonly used today, we are discussing the super-rich.
Insight From Centimillionaire Clients Worth $100,000,000
In my career, I have had the experience of meeting and learning about many clients with a 9-figure net worth.
Many of the stories were exciting and intriguing, but others were depressing and even mind-boggling.
1. Wealth Without Health
Too often, these individuals were so focused on money that they failed to care for their health. I was fascinated and started studying CEOs of major companies. I found that many suffered from various ailments. One of the most common ailments was heart-related problems.
By witnessing the results that ignoring our health makes, I made health a priority early in my life.
2. KKDK – What You Know You Know That You Don’t Know
Another fascinating insight was the transference of knowledge. Thankfully, these examples were not my clients, but the themes of the dozen stories were very similar.
While not every 9-figure millionaire is impacted by the KKDK problem, it was a lesson I was glad I learned early on.
Too often, people believe they will be successful in all areas because they have been successful in one area. For example, because I am a software genius, I know everything about the world of wealth, investable assets, and wealth management. Generally, they had little or no experience in the new area, and the results were devasting. Many of the people who fell prey to the KKDK lost everything.
This lesson was priceless and saved me from costly mistakes.
3. The Power of Relationships
Too many multimillionaires choose the wrong partner or fail to prioritize their family.
Long before I had money, I prioritized my partner and children in my life. Today, I have a great marriage and relationship with my kids because of the priority I made them a top priority.
