There is one secular research institute in the USA who researches about happy people. Since this is a secular institution, the first happy measure is the amount of money, the agency surveys rich people (millionaires) with an initial sample of over 200 thousand millionaires.
Of the 200 thousand it is filtered its happy levels based on various parameters including the family. The last filter result is about 200 people who are considered very happy, because in addition to rich, extraordinary business, enjoy life, his family is settled. The survey results are written in Thomas Stanley's book "The Millionaire Mind."
Rich people are on average already old, they are rich in one generation, meaning not rich in inheritance, but rich with zero capital, aka own work. Then these people are interviewed one by one in detail, and summarized the lifestyles of these people, along with 10 lifestyles:
- Those people are frugal = thrifty, meaning: they are full of consideration in utilizing their money. To buy something, think about it about 20 times, the type of person who asks God about everything expenses. They are not enslaved fashion, though not ancient, but fashionable. They know where to buy good stuff but cheap.
- Those people always live under their income, do not live dig a hole lobang alias anti-debt alias.
- Very loyal to couples - not divorced and loyal!
- Always get away from the tempest either in the family / business (in USA often economic recession, they always get away). After being asked what the key escaped, the answer was: "overcoming worry and fear with The Bible and pray, with faith to God." We have God and His word. "
- Their way of thinking is different in every way with the common people, for example: if we go to the mall, think abisin money, they even survey to find what the best selling business in the mall. They think differently from the crowd. They are "man of production" not "man of consumption."
- When asked the key to success:
** a. ** Got integrity = talk and promise can be held and trusted.
- When asked the key to success:
Discipline = not easily influenced, in all things, including discipline in the case of food, they are people who are not arbitrarily food consumption. Not greedy.
** c. ** Always develop social skills = how to get along, learn to get along with people
** d. ** Have a support partner, always support in good condition / not. According to them, integrity begins at home, if a spouse can not be trusted at home, it can not be trusted outside.- Time / activity sharing, at most for the following:

- Religious millionaire. They never force an equal amount of assets to God, but they learn to hear the voice of God, how many assets God wants them to have. Ask for guidance for business. They are not the type to swallow all the business offers offered to them, but ask God to make a decision.
- When asked about who their mentor is, the answer is God.
