Quotes:

- Dewey Steffen: “Most people spend first and save what’s left—if anything. Millionaires do the opposite. They save first, then spend.”

- Dewey Steffen: “ Studies show that 80% of financial success is based on behavior, not income. Daily choices, spending habits, and financial discipline separate those who struggle from those who build wealth.”

- Dewey Steffen: “ Money is a tool, not a solution. Think about how many lottery winners and professional athletes go broke. It’s not the money you make, but what you do with it once you have it.”
