If you read the books "The Millionaire Next Door" or "The Millionaire Mind" you may be surprised to learn that most millionaire's are just ordinary people.
The majority of millionaires aren't living in gaudy mansions or driving Ferrari's. They have average sized homes and drive Ford F150's. They DON'T regularly drink champagne or eat caviar. They drink beer and eat hot dogs. They DON'T wear designer clothes they wear Levi jeans.
In a 10 part series we will discuss the misconceptions many people have about being a millionaire. Truths that may just burst your wanting to be a millionaire bubble.
In part 4 we look it how nice it is to be waited on.
When Joe Blow calls to make reservations that hot new restaurant may be booked for months. Many top restaurants set aside tables for celebrities and A list customers. That's where a personal concierge comes in. Most concierge's work on retainers that range from $25 an hour to six figures a year. These modern day Guy/Gal Friday's have the hook ups on chic restaurants, spa reservations, even early tee times for golf. Concierges who are worth their salt will scour the planet for whatever their clients need. Everything from holy water blessed by the Pope, rare Mexican tequila, or artisan sausages found in Northern Spain. For some people the cost doesn't matter.
Concierge services now extend to medical attention as well. For about $2,000 to $4,000 a month, clients can get 24 hour access to a primary care physician who makes house calls and can facilitate admission to a hospital without waiting forever in the emergency room.
For 24 hour concierge service check out http://www.livealifetravel.biz/ for membership. The concierge will do everything from arrange all your travel needs to order flowers for your anniversary. All for $39.95 a month. Also, included is a auto club that just like AAA will change a tire, jump a battery, and get you gas. And if you are stranded will get $1,000 to you to make repairs and get you back on the road.
I used this service to get tickets for The Dark Knight..it is awesome. You too can live like a millionaire for a lot less.
