Image source: Getty Images Every time I board a plane and have to walk through business class to reach my seat, I grumble to myself just a little bit. Those seats sure look comfy, politely spaced out and with plentiful legroom. It's a little unfair to have to march by that luxury to reach the economy section, isn't it? But even though I've always coveted one of those business-class seats, I've never been able to bring myself to cough up the cash or credit card miles to book one.

On the other hand, it's probably fair to say the Oracle of Omaha changed his tune. Today, over half of Berkshire's stock portfolio is made up of technology-focused businesses. Even more striking, 48.5% of its $365 billion portfolio is actually held in just two "Magnificent Seven" stocks.

Finding companies that have transformed a simple $1,000 investment into $1 million is rare. That growth requires an investment to increase by 999 times. So, if a company goes public at a $1 billion valuation, it needs to be worth $1 trillion now. The companies that fit this list are often older, as it takes time to put up these returns. But investors can learn many lessons from the behemoths that have achieved this feat and use them to find the next stock that could turn $1,000 into $1 million.

You're probably well aware that if you don't make an effort to save for retirement, you may be forced to live on Social Security alone when you're older. And that could mean living frugally to an extreme. The average Social Security recipient today collects just $1,907 a month, or a little less than $23,000 per year. Granted, if you're far from retirement, the average monthly benefit (and yearly benefit) is likely to be much higher by the time your career wraps up due to inflation and cost-of-li
