Bill Gates. Michael Jordan. Warren Buffett. Every day we hear about the rich getting richer; we buy their products, watch them on television, and wish we could afford their stock. And yet we've never learned how to replicate their success'until now. 
Picking up where the smash bestseller The Millionaire Next Door left off, Getting Rich in America reveals eight simple, practical, commonsense rules anyone can follow to save a million dollars'without sacrificing quality of life. Based on years of research studying self-made millionaires - and a philosophy that has proven successful for the authors as well - internationally acclaimed economists Dwight R. Lee and Richard B. McKenzie unveil a profound truth in the quest to become wealthy: that getting rich is a choice - and that choosing to be rich, especially in America, has never been easier. 
In this highly anticipated audiobook, you will meet ordinary folks, just like yourself, who, while making an average income, have amassed at least a million dollars in savings'not through get-rich-quick schemes, but through basic hard work, discipline, patience, and perseverance - without having to live like misers. 
But why become rich if not to enjoy it? Getting Rich in America does not promote amassing wealth for wealth's sake. You can have that gourmet coffee, take a much-needed vacation, even indulge in filet mignon. With its emphasis on achieving balance, Getting Rich in America is filled with: exercises and easy-to-execute calculations that reveal how the “little things” really do add up over time to big savings, or to no savings at all; sound advice for creating a fulfilling life; and practical tips for saving and making your money work harder'so you don't have to.

The digitization of such traditional goods as books, music, and movies, in combination with traditional digital productions like software, has given rise to new twists and turns in economic arguments. The primary reasons for these digital-led developments in economic theory are that digital goods often exhibit network effects―consumer benefits that grow with the spreading use of certain goods―and that digital products often have low or negligible reproduction costs. McKenzie describes how the advent of digital goods has forced changes in firms' production and pricing strategies, and how it has led to the reassessment of an array of public policies, from privacy to piracy.

In this memoir, Richard McKenzie weaves an account of life with his wife Ava and her close relationship with her father Fred Astaire, vignettes of their contrasting childhoods in California, and life in the far reaches of the Irish countryside - where they moved with sons Kevin and Tyler in 1975. Richard's journal includes stories, never before published, about the entire Astaire family. With graceful humor and sentiment he renders a unique portrait of Fred Astaire - on movie sets in Ireland and at home in California - that gives rare insight into the private man behind the dancing legend. At the center of the memoir are the day-to-day experiences of an American family making a new life in the midst of a rural Irish community, involving a colorful gallery of Irish characters and visiting Hollywood stars.
