that kindof negates a lot of everything else the book says. of course if you choose the right occupation you can become a millionaire. it doesnt matter how you live your life, how frugal you are or how flashy you are, etc... its a lot easier to become a millionaire as a doctor than it is as a teacher, for example.
i think most of the time, those who consciously chose an occupation because of its wealth generating potential are more likely to become wealthy. no one goes into teaching with the aim of living frugal and retiring a millionaire. they go into teaching because they love teaching.
just my  and observations

Doctors dont all become millionaires, I have conversations with mine, whenever I see him . By the time he pays his overhead , he ends up making about $17.24 per hour Cdn. This is after all the years of study and hard work. An uneducated worker on the Line makes more than that. All the young GP's in my area Quit after a few months, because they run themselfes ragged for nothing.
