The Key Ingredient to Being a Millionaire...

Authors Robert Kriegel and Louis Patler conducted a study with 1500 participants over a 20 year period.  Their task?  To become millionaires. 

Group A consisted of 1245 people, or 83% of the participants. 

They had to focus on making as much money as they could first and foremost, with personal fulfillment being secondary.  It had to be in that order: Become a millionaire first, do what you enjoy second.

Group B was the remaining 255 participants.  Their objective was the complete opposite.  Do what you want and love first, worry about the money later.

Question #1:  How many millionaires came out of Group A? Out of 1245, over 20 years?

(I guessed 40, or roughly 3%))

Question #2:  How many millionaires came out of Group B, the remaining 255 sampled?

(I guessed 20, figuring the percentage would be roughly 3 times greater, or 9%)
