Book 6/52 of My #52Books52Weeks Bucket List Challenge

Some books are long, complex, and packed with theory. Others are short, straight-to-the-point, and designed to light a fire under you. The Millionaire Booklet by Grant Cardone is definitely the latter.

I picked up this book as part of my #52Books52Weeks challenge because, let’s be real—financial freedom is a huge part of living a Bucket List Life. If you don’t have the money, a lot of your dream experiences will stay just that—dreams.

Cardone’s approach? Forget traditional financial advice. Go big, think bigger, and take massive action. This book isn’t about saving your way to wealth—it’s about scaling your way there.

Key Takeaways from The Millionaire Booklet

• Getting Rich is a Duty, Not a Dream – Cardone flips the script: making money isn’t selfish—it’s your responsibility if you want to live life on your terms.

• Think 10X Bigger – If your goal is to make an extra $10K, aim for $100K instead. Expanding your thinking leads to bigger actions.

• Saving Won’t Make You Rich—Earning More Will – Instead of obsessing over cutting expenses, focus on increasing income streams.

• Money Follows Attention – The more people you help, serve, or sell to, the more money flows to you. Visibility = wealth.

• Invest, Don’t Just Store Money – Cardone believes in putting money to work—whether in business, real estate, or investments—rather than just letting it sit in a savings account.

How The Millionaire Booklet Relates to Living a Bucket List Life

1. Financial Freedom = More Bucket List Experiences – If you want to travel, take time off, or fund passion projects, you need the financial means to do it.

2. Think Bigger About Your Goals – Cardone’s 10X mindset applies beyond money. Why dream small when you can dream BIGGER?

3. Take Massive Action – A Bucket List Life doesn’t happen by accident. Whether it’s financial success or ticking off life goals, you have to go ALL IN.

4. Your Income = Your Choices – More income gives you more options—where to go, what to do, and how to spend your time.

5. Invest in Experiences, Not Just Stuff – Cardone’s philosophy isn’t just about making money—it’s about using it to create freedom and opportunities.

Reading The Millionaire Booklet reminded me that money isn’t the goal—it’s the fuel that lets you live life on your terms.

So, here’s my challenge to you: What’s one step you can take today to increase your income and create more financial freedom for your Bucket List?

Let’s think bigger, earn more, and tick off more life goals! 🚀
