Too many people out there are offering ridiculous ideas on how you can become rich. Many of those ideas are about cutting back.

I can promise you that will not get rich by skipping your daily latte.

Look, if you don't have income, then there is no money to save. Don't let anyone give you the idea that you need to skip your Starbucks coffee and save $5 a day and that will somehow turn into a fortune.

Maybe you can skip spending $5 at Starbucks every day and save $10,000 over the next five years, but if you think $10,000 is going to change your life, you're not just broke, you're being stupid. Of course you should spend less than you earn, but if you make $50,000 a year with a couple of kids, what money is there left over to save?

If you are serious about getting rich, you need to get your mind focused on income. Increase your income enough and you will be able to save something substantial.

Here are five non-fiction tips you can use that will actually get you to millionaire status:
1. Invest in you
Successful people invest time, energy, and money in improving themselves. A man told me once, "The best way you can help people in need is to not be someone in need." Help yourself out so you are in a position to help someone else out. This means investing in yourself to become great at something.

I invested in sales training when I was 25. That made my income-producing ability skyrocket. Investing in yourself is the best investment you can make.

2. Find the right job
The rich are able to get in with the right company where there is opportunity for growth. My VP of sales Jarrod Glandt started working for me over seven years ago for $2,500 a month. Still, he was in the right vehicle. He grew his skill set and was able to multiply his monthly income many times over because he knew I was looking to expand.

Too many people just look for a job. You need a job, but you need the right vehicle. All companies live from this thing called revenue. Get commissions rather than just a salary and you will finally be in control of how much you earn.

3. Get great at what you do
Commit to being great, not just average. Any industry can be a painful profession for average and bottom performers, but massively rewarding for those that are great. Those that live, breathe and eat their profession, those that are obsessed, become great.

I have never met a great who wasn't all in and completely consumed by their trade. Have you?

The fact is, if you aren't great, you are average. The rich get great.

4. Get multiple, connected income streams flowing
You won't get rich without multiple flows of income. That starts with the income you currently have. Increase that income and start adding multiple flows.

You want what are called symbiotic flows. Do not just add disconnected flows. Instead, find other ways you can add income to the job you already have. My video guy does advertising for me - and after proving himself, he started making advertisements for those connected to me. He didn't start a doughnut shop.

Too many people go from one flow to a second flow, resulting in two flows that do nothing. Your flows should always be connected.

"Saving $100,000 shows that you have an ability to make money and keep it. Most people can't do either."

5. Hit $100K, then i nvest the rest
First, try to save $100,000. Why? You need to prove to yourself that you can go out and get money. If you only have $10,000 saved, your only priority should be increasing your income so that you can save more.

Saving $100,000 shows that you have an ability to make money and then to keep it. Most people can't do either of those things.

What is 'Escrow'

Escrow is a legal concept in which a financial instrument or an asset is held by a third party on behalf of two other parties that are in the process of completing a transaction. The funds or assets are held by the escrow agent until it receives the appropriate instructions or until predetermined contractual obligations have been fulfilled. Money, securities, funds, and other assets can all be held in escrow.

When parties are in the process of completing a transaction, there may come a time when it is only interesting to move forward for one party if it knows with absolute certainty that the other party will be able to fulfill its obligations. This is where the use of escrow comes into play.

For example, a company selling goods internationally wants to be certain that it will get paid when the goods reach their destination. Conversely, the buyer wants to pay for the goods only if they arrive in good condition. The buyer can place the funds in escrow with an agent and give irrevocable instructions to disburse them to the seller once the goods arrive. This way, both parties are safe, and the transaction can proceed.

Escrow transactions are also frequent in the real estate market and the stock market.

Escrow and Real Estate

Escrow accounts are used in real estate transactions so that the buyer can perform due diligence on his potential acquisition while assuring the seller of its capacity to close on the purchase. For example, an escrow account can be used for the sale of a house. If there are conditions to the sale, such as the passing of an inspection, the buyer and seller may agree to use escrow. In this case, the buyer of the property deposits the payment amount for the house in an escrow account held by a third party. This assures the seller - in the process of allowing the house to be inspected - that the buyer is capable of making payment. Once all of the conditions to the sale are satisfied, the escrow transfers the payment to the seller, and the title is transferred to the buyer.

Escrow and the Stock Market

Stocks, especially those of public companies, are often issued in escrow. This means that while the shareholder is the real owner of the stock, he is limited in his rights to dispose of it. For example, executives who receive stock as a bonus to their compensation often have to wait for an escrow period to pass before they can sell the stock. This is used as a tactic to retain top executives and protects the stock's market price.

BREAKING DOWN 'Escrow'

I just brought a new car and i plan on paying it off within a year.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
You've probably heard that comment before, right? You might have even said it yourself-with a defeated, woe-is-me tone of voice. So what's the deal? Are car payments really just a way of life?

Well, that's the normal way of thinking. But, as Dave always says: When it comes to money, normal is broke. You want to be weird, and weird people don't have car payments.

Local experts you can trust.

So how, exactly, do you live without a car payment?

Here's the deal. Recent statistics show that one-third of car buyers sign up for a six-year loan at an average interest rate of 9.6%. Among these buyers, the average price of the car is just over $26,000. This means that one-third of the cars you see on the road are dragging a $475 payment behind them.

The car dealer won't tell you that your awesome new car loses about 25% of its value the instant you drive it off the lot. After four years, your car has lost about 70% of its value!

What does that mean? After six years, you've paid almost $33,000 for a $26,000 car, which is now worth maybe $6,000. Not a good deal.

Here's a new plan. What if you bought a cheap $2,000 car just to get around for 10 months? Then you take that $475-the average car payment-save it every month, and pay for a new car (with cash!), instead of giving it to the bank.

After 10 months of doing that, you'll have $4,750 to use for that new ride. Add that to the $1,500-2,000 you can get for your old beater, and you have well over $6,000. That's a major upgrade in car in just 10 months -without owing the bank a dime!

But the fun doesn't end there. If you keep consistently putting the same amount of money away, 10 months later you would have another $4,750 to put toward a car. You could probably sell that $6,000 vehicle for about the same price you paid 10 months before-meaning you now have $11,000 to pay for a car, just 20 months after this whole process started.

The bottom line with this exercise is simply this- what could you do with that $475 if you weren't paying for the car every month? Anything you wanted!

Think about it this way: If you were to invest that $475 (remember, this is the average car payment in the U.S.) into a good mutual fund with a 12% rate of return, you would have over $100,000 in 10 years! At 20 years, you would have made $470,000. And at 30 years? That mutual fund would be worth $1.6 million!

The numbers will make your head spin, but it really just comes down to simple math. The less money you are spending on your car every month, the more money you have to put into other more important things: your kids' college fund, your retirement, and paying off any other debt you might have.

If you'll just follow this simple plan, your life could be dramatically different 10 years from now. You can live without a car payment!

Earning your high school diploma is important - more important than you may realize. Your parents have probably always told you to how important it is to get a good education. Sorry to burst your bubble, but they're right. Today, you can't do much without having a high school diploma.

Here are 6 reasons why getting your high school diploma is important:

1. Career Opportunities

If you want to make more than minimum wage you're going to need a high school diploma. Without it, you're going to be stuck in a dead-end job with no chance of a promotion or a raise. With a high school diploma, or even better - a college degree, you're more likely to land a job that provides a higher salary in addition to health insurance and retirement benefits. A high school diploma can help you land a job that you can call a career well into adulthood. It will allow you to apply for jobs that you would otherwise not be able to do without a diploma.

2. Furthering Your Education

In today's job market, a college degree is becoming more important. But in order to further your education at any type of college - whether it's community college, a four-year university or an online university - you'll be required to have a high school diploma. By obtaining your high school diploma and then furthering your education in college, you will make yourself available to apply for jobs carrying higher salaries and better benefits.

3. Higher Salary

According to research, graduating from high school will determine how well you live for the next 50 years of your life. High school graduates earn $143 more per week than high school dropouts. College graduates earn $336 more per week than high school graduates ($479 more per week than high school dropouts). Enough said.

4. Staying Employed

Statistics show that individuals who complete high school in four years are less likely to be unemployed. According to a 2006 study, people who never completed high school had a 16.3% unemployment rate eight years later. During those same 8 years, the unemployment rate among those who earned their diplomas within four years was dramatically lower at only 4.7%. Taking longer than four years to earn your diploma can have even more of a negative effect. Individuals who spent more than six years pursuing their high school diploma experienced a massive 18.1% unemployment rate.

5. More Opportunities

A high school diploma offers more lifetime opportunities beyond the job. You're more likely to live above the poverty line, giving you the opportunity to apply for home, car or school loans. With a high school diploma, you'll most likely live in a low crime rate neighborhood and not have any trouble with the law yourself. According to the National Dropout Prevention Center, 82 percent of prisoners in the U.S. are high school dropouts.

6. Additional Incentives

Not only will you feel good about yourself when you graduate from high school, but it helps protect your physical health. You'll be more likely to have access to medical care (health insurance from your job) and have the funds to pay for it (better salary). Knowing you have a diploma makes you a good role model to younger siblings, or your own kids and grandkids, which will encourage them to stay in school (the circle of life). Plus finishing high school gives you the chance to learn a variety of things. The more you learn, the more well-rounded you'll be as a person, giving you the opportunity to apply for even better jobs!
