"Do you believe that a bachelor can not be a millionaire?" Some concern people believed that a bachelor cannot be a millionaire, due to what kind of lifestyle they have. An "easy-go-lucky" lifestyle, they gain enough money from work. Then, they took off to travel or waste their money for fun. Perhaps, they don't have responsibilities to think of. Unlike married guys, they need to stand firm, be serious of taking financial ledger for his family.

Anyone can be a millionaire, bachelor or not. It all depends on whether he get the chance to win big in a lottery or he inherited huge sum from his parents or grandparents or he worked really hard to earn big. Being a millionaire is some cases takes just overnight. A neighbor of mine became multimillionaire in an instant after winning in lottery. Could you imagine that? But I also know lots of people who persevered for long years before they reach the millionaire status. From being an ordinary newspaper vendor they are now rich businessmen. It actually depends from person to person not on gender. Remember not all bachelors are happy go lucky. I know so many who are not so they are most likely to become millionaires someday if they continue working that hard.

I really doubt if becoming millionaire is anyway related to being bachelor or not. But if i remember right, i have heard about a survey where it was found that most of the millionaires are married. maybe it has got something to do with age also, but we cant reach any conclusion based on that.

Not at all. Some bachelor guys are responsible better than those who have a family already. It depends on the person. Our President here in the Philippines, still bachelor and a millionaire.

I would say he was born lucky. I mean if you already have inherited millions, then you have got a great platform it all depends if you want to convert it to billions or stay with what you have.

It's hard to earned millions for a couple of years. So the concept, you start saving from your bachelor age and you will finished it while you have a family already. It takes more than 10 years to became rich so that period of time a bachelor already married.

this is case to case basis if you ask me, i think there are many things to account for with this because there are also other people who are bachelor but was responsible enough and is able to save a great deal for their future.

That is a very big fact that you have mentioned. to become a millionaire from a salaried job is indeed very tough. You should be in the top position of a company or something to be a millionaire like that. but I think mostly i you have your business, you have chance to be a millionaire.

I actually tend to think that it would be much more likely for a bachelor to be a millionaire than a man that has a family that he is responsible for to be a millionaire. The reason that I feel this way is that a bachelor doesn't necessarily have the same kind of financial responsiblities that a family man has. Yes, they might have a tendency to be a little bit more free with their money, but that doesn't mean that they are going to be spending all of their money.

I have nothing to say, but to agree. We need to be responsible for wasting money to some extent, that don't need it. Have a great day!

Well, I do agree with the part that most bachelors are not thinking about their future. I am sometimes included in the group. But, some do have vision, a far-ahead vision about that future, and I think these minorities do have the potential to become one. Yes, there are a lot more married guys who are millionaires compared to bachelors, but part of it may be because that they are much older than the bachelors and thus have more time to plan their finance. Just my thinking though :)

I think we cant really generalise that concept. i am from india and i am a bachelor too. even though i am not a millionaire, my friends who have set up their own business have indeed grown wealthy. three to four of them are already millionaires. its all bout the attitude and the desire to grow.

Well said! Personally I think that this attitude even comes from school time. I think that those young kids who are ambitious and like competition back in school will have a larger chance of having the right attitude when they are older. After all, most of these kinds of individuals hate to lose, and therefore will try their hardest to be better than everyone else

Well anyone can be a millionare. I am sure that there are plenty of bachelors that are. Is Donald Trump married. I am not sure if he is or not. If someone is good with their money then they can have a lot. Many people with a lot of money have it invested in various places.

I agree with your point. becoming a millionaire is about having motivation in your life. if you are really motivated, being single or not shouldnt be a problem but in some cases, families can have a positive or negative effect.

Those people are far from reality if they think that way, so many bachelors right now or millionaire . Look all the rappers and singers and movie stars that are single and making real money . Some marry guys waste their money gambling and doing unfaithful stuff . People are individual that is too much of a broad statement . I am more cautious with my money than some other people my age and marry people .

I think when you are married you become more responsible. this means that you dont spend money just like that and also you have the motivation to earn well as well. But that really shouldnt be a hindrance for a bachelor to be a millionaire.

With the description you gave for both single and married men, I'd say it would be hard for either to be millionaires.

This is weird question! Anyone can be a millionaire even if they are a bachelor! If the person is smart and knows what they are doing they can become a millionaire and stay a milionaire! Hiring a good lawyer can help a person invest their money and spend it wisely! So many people who become millionaires spend the money foolishly! They have no clue what they are doing and end up broke! Save wiser and don't spend foolishly is the way to go!

I hope you are just asking in general and don't relly believe your statement...this is funny... Just because a bachelor live a bachelor lifestyle certainly dosen't mean he can not be a millionaire...Why would it be so hard for him and so much easier for a married man with a family.

Money is a fickle friend, She runs if you run after, If you don't follow her, She follows if you, She doesn't care whether you are a bachelor or a beggar, She only follows those who doesn't pester her, Whether you are married or single is none of her concern, She just follows those she find interesting and enterprising.

That was a very poetic but sensible and apt statement from your end. Its all luck that can bring you wealth. if Lady Luck smiles on you, you may be wealthier like anything. otherwise you may perish. Money comes not by any known methods, you really need the stroke of luck.

I don't see a logic why can't a bachelor become a millionaire? There a misconception here that all bachelor are happy go lucky and irresponsible. A very good example - Mark Zuckerberg is a bachelor when he founded Facebook. He is not only a millionaire, He is a billionaire! Only recently that he got married. Cheers!

I completely concur with what you have said. i think the criteria for being millionaire or not is are you an entrepreneur or working under salaried job. if you are a successful entrepreneur, there is every chance that you cane be a millionaire.

I feel there is no direct logical reasoning that we can find in support of any group. But i feel the bachelors are more capable of being millionaires that married. at the young age, they are ready to take up more risks, and if successful, they might become millionaires. But married people have a family to raise and they are not happy taking risks, So the prospect of they becoming millionaires are less.

I guess this depends but, I have to say, this can hold true for younger people. But, I've seen a lot of bachelors who are really good business people and I've read about some of them who are now millionaires yet they don't have a family to support. I think that if a person sets his mind to achieving his goals, and a bachelor at that, then, it might even be easier for them to get richer. A married man who works hard and is motivated, can also become richer. I don't think that marital status would affect success in any way. It's the attitude and drive that makes someone who he is, a millionaire or not.

I dont think a bachelor cannot be a Millionaire, anyone whether he is married or not can be a millionaire. It is depend on how hard his effort to be a millionaire and the way he spends his money. Not all bachelor are easy to spend money, so I think it is depend on the person how do he manages his money. Married man can be a millionaire although he has to support his wife and his children, but his family could be his greatest motivation to earn more money. In other side a bachelor can be a millionaire because he can save more money and dont have to support anyone.

who believe a bachlor can't be a millioair, one of the example is BRAD WOMACK and there are many more, there are many more celebrites even who are billionair and still unmarried. we can't just believe that because of their fun loving mood and attitude they can't save obviously all billionaits must have been bachelor and millionair before.
