This man was very smart and planned way ahead to have millions when he died.
You don't need to earn a massive paycheck to become a millionaire.
As one-time Vermont-based janitor and gas station attendant Ronald Read demonstrated, you can reach the seven-figure mark on a modest salary.
Unbeknownst to everyone around him until he died at age 92 in June 2014, Read had quietly amassed an $8 million fortune, thanks to smart spending and investing habits.
