Never Enough

From Barista to Billionaire

De: Andrew Wilkinson

Narrado por: Luke Daniels

"Like going to business school and therapy all in one book."
—James Clear, New York Times Bestselling Author, Atomic Habits

Once a barista in a small cafe making $6.50 an hour, Andrew Wilkinson built a business valued at over a billion dollars by the time he was 36—and yet, his path to success was anything but a straight line.

In Never Enough, Wilkinson pulls back the curtain on the lives of the ultra-rich, sharing insights into building a successful business that has been called a “Berkshire Hathaway, but for internet companies,” and a surprising first-person account of what it's actually like to become a billionaire.

Never Enough features both the lessons Wilkinson has learned as well as the many mistakes made on the road to wealth—some of which cost him money, happiness, and important relationships.

Taking a "no secrets" approach to stories the wealthy rarely reveal, Wilkinson is unwaveringly honest about some of the unexpected downsides of money: its toxic effect on personal relationships, how the lifestyles of the rich and famous aren't all they're cracked up to be, and how competition with peers leaves everyone—even billionaires—feeling like they never have enough.

In this book, you'll discover:

• A candid glimpse into the lives of the super-rich and what truly matters beyond money
• Insights on building a successful business from the ground up
• Lessons learned from the mistakes made on the journey to his fortune
• The surprising realities of life as a billionaire and the challenges that come with extreme wealth

In this rare and deeply honest account, Wilkinson examines his journey to nine zeros, what came after that pinnacled number, and the essential things money can't buy.

Paying it forward and backward

I was convinced going in I was not going to like this guy, but thought I might learn something about obnoxious narcissistic billionaires in the hopes that I might become one. I was disappointed at first that he never got into detail about the actual work in building his businesses. I thought he might be an empty suit, and the glib narrator didn’t do him any favors. But this was a refreshing and different angle on business and shockingly the guy turned out to be a somewhat normal and authentic guy who made it and paid it forward AND BACK to the little people who helped him get there.

Good for business owners

Really enjoyed. I’d recommend for people who own businesses or are looking to start. Andrew is very relatable and has an easy writing style.

authenticity is rare

Amazing to see an author be so authentic and vulnerable , enjoyed the business side but also the human side

Money Doesn’t Buy Happiness

I’ve never heard of the author or his contributions to tech. This book offers much insight about having everything and yet having nothing. It's a great read or listen for any aspiring entrepreneur or developer.

Personal journey through life

Insightful and honest trip along with the author detailing his journey and life and business experiences.

Fantastic

If you like hearing the stories of the struggles and successes of those in business or life this is right up your alley. Love the honesty in the storytelling and how personal he was. No sugar coating and I never felt like I was being lectured from someone already on top of the mountain. Just a guy telling his story, warts and all.

Real and inspirational

A very enjoyable listen which reminds you that anything and everything is possible with hard work and self belief.

Gran libro, justo en el momento que lo necesitaba

Un libro que habla de cómo el dinero no soluciona todos tus problemas, sino que genera nuevos problemas que ni imaginabas. Saber cuándo es suficiente es algo que deberíamos plantearnos todos. Saber frenar y sentirnos a gusto con lo q tenemos es la clave de la felicidad

Great Book: Too Short

Great book, but should have been twice as long. He had more story and wisdom to share, but held back.

Chicken Soup for the entrepreneurs soul

Amazing story and view points for those who crave and strive for success and money just as much as they do to be a decent human being!
