After three years of writing, rewriting, and refining, I’m thrilled to officially celebrate the launch of Millionaire Milestones: Simple Steps To Seven Figures today!
This book has been a true labor of love, not just for me, but for my family as well. It’s the product of countless early mornings, late nights, and weekends hunched over the keyboard, while also navigating the beautiful chaos of parenthood and everyday life.
Each chapter represents years of financial experience, both wins and mistakes, distilled into clear, actionable steps that anyone can take to build wealth over time. I wrote this book to help people from all walks of life hit their first $1 million in net worth, without needing a lucky break or a six-figure salary.
Whether you're just starting out in your career, navigating a midlife financial reset, or thinking about how to best guide your children toward financial independence, this book will serve as your practical, no-nonsense companion.



The Making Of Millionaire Milestones: A Conversation With My Wife & Editor
To mark the occasion, my wife and I recorded a special 30-minute podcast episode discussing the behind-the-scenes of creating Millionaire Milestones, what readers can expect, and some of the emotional ups and downs that came with the process.
We talk candidly about what it took to stay committed, how we managed the juggling act as parents and partners, and why we believe this book can make a meaningful difference in people’s lives. You can listen to it below:

A Heartfelt Thank You For Supporting Millionaire Milestones
Since July 2009, I’ve published three free personal finance articles a week on Financial Samurai—over 2,500 posts and counting. Instead of putting up a paywall or subscription service, I’ve also sent out a free weekly newsletter for over 10 years, filled with insights, strategies, and stories designed to help you build wealth and live more freely.
So if you’ve ever found comfort, courage, laughter, or joy in my writing, I hope you’ll consider picking up a hard copy of Millionaire Milestones. It’s a small gesture that helps support this site and keeps everything strong and free for years to come.
And if you’ve been able to build significant wealth from reading my work over the years, there’s no better way to pay it forward than by giving the gift of financial freedom through this book.
If you enjoy Millionaire Milestones, I’d be incredibly grateful if you could leave a review on Amazon or share it with someone who might benefit. Word of mouth is still the most powerful way to spread practical financial knowledge that can truly change lives.
Here’s to hitting your next financial milestone—whatever it may be!

Congratulations on the launch of Millionaire Milestones! Your dedication and perseverance over the past three years is inspiring. I’ve ordered my copy and I’m excited to dig in.
Work like a wild person while young, save and invest about 15%+ of income, avoid overspending on depreciating expenses, buy less house than you can afford. Adjust as needed.
Hey Sam, the link to the private video fireside chat says “sales ended.” Is this the case?
Hi Tom – Good catch! The fireside chat event is now open again.
Early signups must have triggered a max capacity limit and automatically switched off.
Thanks for picking up a copy!
