Since 2002 (best I can tell), CNN Money has been profiling the financial lives of people headed toward millions because of their saving, spending, and investing habits. With the help of my friend Google, I’ve put together what I believe to be the comprehensive list of these future millionaire profiles (CNN Money doesn’t have this on their site) dating back to 2002. I’ve also developed a database of their information and over the next few days I’ll be presenting some facts, statistics, and trends, along with some of my favorites. Enjoy!

I’m not too impressed…the do nothing but save.
The couple, who run a small company that sells industrial fasteners and other supplies, paid themselves $103,000 last year. They have no credit-card debt, have lived in the same house (worth about $300,000) for 14 years and don’t drive fancy cars. They’re so frugal compared with certain friends, in fact, that they wonder if they’re missing something. “Everybody’s passing us by,” Tracy says. “What are we doing wrong?”
Couldn’t have said it better myself..indeed..life is passing them by…they’ll grow old, have alot of money and look back and say…[explitive]..all we did was work, chase money, and save. What a waste.
@Nozferatu – I don’t understand what you are not impressed with. The fact that they don’t have fancy cars?
Reading these back in 2002 was one of the first things that got me interested in personal finance. I figured if they could do it, so could I!
