Publisher's summary

Felix Dennis is an expert at proving people wrong. Starting as a college dropout with no family money, he created a publishing empire, founded Maxim magazine, made himself one of the richest people in the UK, and had a blast in the process.

How to Get Rich is different from any other book on the subject because Dennis isn't selling snake oil, investment tips, or motivational claptrap. He merely wants to help people embrace entrepreneurship and to share lessons he learned the hard way. He reveals, for example, why a regular paycheck is like crack cocaine; why great ideas are vastly overrated; and why "ownership isn't the important thing, it's the only thing".

Something that should be read once a year.

Insightful, entertaining and a book I would recommend to those seeking to evaluate their own processes in the journey of getting rich.

as if taking advice from a trusted mentor

I really enjoyed this book because it was as if I was taking advice from a mentor instead of some pompous person

he does a good job of laying down the big picture in real terms

Sensational

From beginning to end, with a little poetry in between, entertaining and insightful. Do yourself a favor and listen.

best book I have ever listened

it was raw. Very simple to digest and had a ton of eye openers. This book truly pushed me to act rather that just be motivation.

audio levels are bad. really tough listen

I listen to books everyday on audible. plain and simple. the audio guy messed up on this one. it's unfortunate.

I can't hear from my phone when driving from the car. taking a bath. we're walking outside with the phone in my pocket. almost all other books are fine in this regard.
