What do I need to do to become a Stocks and Shares ISA millionaire? With the right investment strategy, creating life-changing wealth with UK shares doesn’t need to be a pipe dream.
Handily, Hargreaves Lansdown analysts are on hand to divulge the investing secrets of these ultra-rich investors. Here are three that have caught my eye.
ISA investors have £20,000 to invest with each tax year. And the sooner they start investing, the quicker their money will start working.
Last year, 30% of Hargreaves Lansdown’s millionaires maxed out their allowance within the first month. Some 54% used their whole allowance within three months of the new tax year starting.
Analyst Sarah Coles concedes that “not everyone can lay their hands on £20,000 to invest every year.” But she adds that “the principle still works – investing what you can afford as soon as you can afford to.”
We all love the idea of getting rich quickly. But, in reality, getting rich with stocks requires patience and a level-headed approach.
Coles notes that “there are some exceptions to the rule.” The youngest ISA millionaire on its books is aged 37.
In keeping with this patient approach, Coles notes that successful investors “don’t take enormous risks. Instead, they’ve built diverse and balanced portfolios.“
She says this is one of the most important rules to follow. I agree.
Investing in a wide range of companies, spanning different industries and geographies, helps investors manage risk by ensuring that a large concentration of their wealth isn’t affected by adverse events that impact a single investment or market.

I’m not saying these tactics will make me a millionaire. But I believe they’ll significantly increase my chances of building a big ISA nest egg by retirement.
This gives me a healthy level of diversification. And one of my plans for the new tax year is to increase my stake in financial services giant Legal & General (LSE:LGEN).
Why this particular share? As the chart below shows, the FTSE 100 firm has an excellent record of raising the annual dividend which, in turn, gives me an increasing passive income.

This is important as I reinvest these dividends to boost my long-term wealth. This phenomenon — known as compounding — means I make money on my initial investment as well as on those dividend payments.
And thanks to the huge dividends Legal & General regularly pays, it could turbocharge my wealth. This year, the company’s dividend yield sits at an enormous 7.2%.
Its share price performance could disappoint over the short term if economic conditions remain tough. But over the long term, I’m confident Legal & General will — like the other UK and US shares I own — deliver outstanding returns.

DECLARATION OF INTERIM DISTRIBUTION
23 May 2024 – abrdn European Logistics Income plc (LSE: ASLI), the Company which invests in a diversified portfolio of European logistics properties, announces an interim distribution for the year ending 31 December 2024.
The Board has declared an interim distribution of 1.41 euro cents (equivalent to 1.21 pence) per Ordinary share, in respect of the year ending 31 December 2024 (2023: 1.41 euro cents), payable in sterling on 5 July 2024 to Ordinary shareholders on the register on 7 June 2024 (ex-dividend date of 6 June 2024).
Following the announcement of the conclusion of the Strategic Review on 20 May 2024, the Board intends to put forward proposals to shareholders for a managed wind-down of the Company (the “Managed Wind-Down”). Accordingly, the Company expects to publish a circular in June 2024 to convene a general meeting at which it will seek approval from shareholders for the proposed new investment policy by way of ordinary resolution. Should shareholders vote to approve the Managed Wind-Down, as the portfolio asset disposal programme commences, the income generated by the Company will diminish. As a result, the Company’s ability to maintain the current level and frequency of distributions will also decrease.

A quick Google search of the phrase ‘passive income’ returns a staggering 151m results. But there’s one definition that stands out.
It comes from fabled investor Warren Buffett. He said: “If you don’t find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die.” It’s a quote that’s stuck with me.
Making passive income has become incredibly important over the last few years with racing inflation eating away at pockets. As such, I can see why investors are keen to start making some extra cash alongside their main source of income.
If I were starting today, here’s how I’d go about it.
Buying stocks
There are plenty of ways to make additional income. But arguably the simplest is buying shares that pay a high dividend yield.
I could start a side hustle or try and enter the property game. But I’m targeting companies that share profits with shareholders via dividend payments.
What constitutes a high yield is subjective. For me, I tend to largely target companies that pay a yield over 5%. For context, the FTSE 100 average is 3.9%.
Finding the right businesses
Investors also need to do their due diligence. While some yields may look attractive, they may not be sustainable. We saw this most recently with Vodafone’s 11.4% payout, which is now being halved in 2025.
I target businesses that operate in mature industries with proven business models and stable cash flows. Given that dividends are never guaranteed, a strong track record of paying investors is also key.
Let time do its thing
It’s taken investors like Buffett decades to build the large passive income streams they receive today. And there’s a lesson in that. Building these streams doesn’t happen overnight.
It’s a long-term process. Take his investment in Coca-Cola. He bought the stock back in 1988 and added to his position over a couple of decades. Last year, he received a dividend cheque worth more than $736m from the company.
Coupled with adopting a long-term approach, I’d use compounding. By reinvesting my dividends, I can earn interest on my interest. Over time, that can super-boost my wealth.
An example
That’s all well and good, but I’m not going to leave here without giving an example that ticks the above boxes. That’s where Legal & General (LSE: LGEN) enters the frame.
It’s an insurance and asset management company and a stalwart in its field. There are a few more reasons why I hold the stock. Let me briefly explain.
Firstly, it has an 8.6% yield. That’s comfortably above the 5% benchmark I look for. Secondly, it has increased its payout by 80.8% over the last decade.
Of course, like all investments, there will be volatility. Right now, the business is facing headwinds as high interest rates impact deposit levels. But given its position as an industry leader, it’s stocks like Legal & General I’d target.
£15,000 invested in the stock today with an 8.6% yield will give me an investment pot of £196,144 after 30 years, assuming I reinvest my dividends. By year 30, this would pay me £16,108 a year, or £1,342 a month, in passive income.
That’s a healthy amount of cash that would no doubt go a long way in allowing me to live a more comfortable retirement.
