I'm 25 years old and I want to become a millionaire by 35. How do I do this?

A bit of simple advice that works for any age.

Copy what millionaires do.
I’ve studied over 40 millionaires and finally found out their secret to wealth.
It took me a long time to piece together the puzzle, but I’ve finally figured it out. Here’s the golden question:
What do Elon Musk, Warren Buffet, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Mark Cuban, and Tonny Robbins have in common?
Besides the mulah...they all read.
Yep - reading.
Don’t believe me? Let one of the most successful and admired entrepreneurs tell you...

Musk built four multibillion-dollar companies by his mid-40s -- in four separate fields (energy, software, transportation and aerospace).
How is that possible? Because he reads.
SpaceX co-founder, Jim Cantrell, mentions Elon Musk’s passion for reading,
He'd been borrowing all my college textbooks on rocketry and propulsion. You know, whenever anybody asks Elon how he learned to build rockets, he says, 'I read books.' Well, it's true.[1]
That’s how Musk was able to go up against the entire aerospace industry and successfully launch SpaceX. Because he’s an avid reader.
And all the millionaires like Warren Buffet, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg have an eye for reading.
The information you provide yourself -- the books and articles you read -- are the nutrients you feed your brain.
If you only read about how Trump is whining about building a wall, then you’re not feeding your brain the proper nutrients to nourish.
However, if you read about economics, psychology or even how Hitler rose to power, then you are one step closer to success.
Reading daily works for Musk, Buffett, Gates and all the millionaires alike.
Chances are, it will work for you too.
The Takeaway? Read non-fiction books and apply. You’ll be one step closer to becoming a millionaire.

How to Read the Right Way: A Complete Guide

The nature of books has evolved. Society and technology have changed. Forcibly, our approach to reading has taken on new forms to accommodate a different way of life. The question is: For better or worse? Although books give us new ideas, spark discussions, and explore topics in detail, the same information can be delivered in a variety of formats. When it comes to exactly  how  we should absorbing books, the debate rages on. Let’s take a look. The Effectiveness of Speed Reading Since the 1950s, speed reading has been touted as an effective way to get through reading material quickly. Scientists, psychologists, and teachers have come up with methods to increase reading speed, whether through manual tools or visual movements. At the World Championship Speed Reading Competition, top contestants can reach 1,000 to 2,000 words per minute. Six-time champion Anne Jones reached 4,200 words per minute at one point. Those rates seem phenomenal compared to the  ...

There Are Two Ways to Read — One Is Useless

Reading is telepathy, and a book is the most powerful technology invented. Homer, Shakespeare, Voltaire, Flaubert, Tolstoy, Woolf, Hemingway — these are names without a living body. We can’t talk to them, nor touch them, but their thoughts are immortalized through the written word. Aristotle’s logic, Kepler’s astronomy, Newton’s physics, Darwin’s biology, Wittgenstein's philosophy — these are memes without living originators. They no longer champion their ideas, and yet, we still talk about them. Without books, humans would never have escaped the boundaries of space and time. Each new generation would have had to learn the realities of life for themselves rather having the luxury to build on the past; knowledge accumulation would have quickly dimmed towards an asymptote. Everything that we value in the modern world has its root in invention of writing. Everything that we have accomplished has come from reading. Even on an individual level, one of the most effective way...
