It comes down to these 3 things:
1. Live beneath your means. In other words, spend less than you can afford. That means living in not as nice of a home, driving a less expensive or used car, not going on as many fancy trips, or cheaper ones, etc.
2. Invest or save that money that you didn't spend in your own business, real estate, or other investments like Stocks, bonds, CDs or mutual funds. And you do this every month.
3. Get as an advanced education as you can. College graduates, especially those with Masters or PhDs earn far more than non-college graduates.
These subjects are covered very well in a book that studied how rich people became rich. It's called The Millionaire Next Door. It's probably available in your library or used. I strongly recommend reading it.

do work that you love. look at rich people, they are in careers that they love, so it doesn't seem like work to them and they attract more money.
