1st First, do no harm. Borrowing from the Hippocratic oath that many doctors take as they graduate from medical school, the Enlightened Millionaire commits to avoid any wealth-building activities that harm or impoverish other people. Create only abundance, never scarcity. This means creating wealth in an ethical, honest, and win/win manner.
2nd Second, do much good. The Enlightened Millionaire enjoys creating wealth that improves the lives of many people. The goal is to enrich oneself while enriching others.
3rd Third, operate out of stewardship. Enlightened Millionaires are stewards over their financial blessings—enjoying the privileges of financial success while creating an ongoing legacy to bless others. Many Enlightened Millionaires feel a personal “calling” to provide support to one or more specific causes (such as Jerry Lewis and muscular dystrophy). The goal is not to amass personal wealth for its own sake, but to ultimately create a perpetual giving fund to support worthy causes. In other words, your wealth is not just for you (selfish), but for blessing the lives of many people (selfless). The first proof of your commitment to make money to bless other people is to give at least the first 10% away.

We want to inspire a million millionaires to give 10% of all they earn each year back to their communities—to improve the lives of others around them. When this happens, it will generate BILLIONS of dollars focused on improving the well-being of humankind. For years, both of us have been dedicating 10% of all our earnings back to our communities.
