Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own.

In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Peter Voogd explains that becoming a millionaire is just as much about who you know as it is what you know. This might sound like advice you've heard before, but there's a reason for that -- it works.

Voogd recommends that if you want to become a millionaire, you shouldn't hang out with millionaires. You should hang out with billionaires, because then you'll get to your goal faster. He says that who you associate yourself with is who you will eventually become.
