If having wealth is your highest personal value and life priority-1.
work the same job day in, day out; 2.save consistently, invest
conservatively and 3. live below your means. Over time (and 50
years of career will do) that's how most American millionaires have
made their money "within" their lifetime.
The hard part is realizing what you want--- enough to work for,
enough to maintain and keep.
