people have already started discussing what

goals, how about taking a leaf out of the habits
of the world's super rich and successful people,
and try something different?

compiled a list comprising of 10 habits of the
richest people in the world. According to
Lifehack, these habits can help you become rich
if you follow them.

4. An important habit to cultivate is
to spend less than what you earn,
said Lifehack. Businessman Warren
Buffett once said, "Do not save what
is left after spending, but spend
what is left after saving."

bigger homes and cars if your
income increases. If the expenses
keep going up, the person will
remain 'poor or average'.

about rich people, is that they work
really hard to achieve their goals.

perseverance to achieve their
dreams and always go one step
further than ordinary employees.

Lifehack suggests is to be persistent.

and learn from it.
