About 500 users were surveyed, and according to a site representative, their millionaire status was “verified” by way of submitted financial documents. The most popular page-turner for single millionaires ⁠— topping the list with about 243 recommendations ⁠— was Eckhart Tolle’s The Power of Now, followed by Napoleon Hill’s Think and Grow Rich with 212 recommendations.
