An unabashed, unapologetic look at getting rich

Generally I don't read "get rich quick" books. They're all basically designed to make the author rich by selling lots of books, or they're a form of literary self-gratification on the part of authors who have millions in the bank. This one is different, and I knew it as soon as I saw it on the shelf.

Felix is the real deal. He's a guy who started with nothing, and by diligent effort managed to make himself very, very wealthy. He doesn't offer feel-good "you can do it!" advice, or say that you can become filthy rich by reading his book. In fact, he basically says you're unlikely to get rich unless you're willing to work like mad while largely sacrificing your social life for extended periods of time.

He also notes, correctly, that many successful people screw up by giving in and buying loads of junk they don't need. They get sloppy, they lose focus, and end up in a huge mess because they tried to show off by buying useless properties or trinkets. He knows. He almost did it himself.

The older and more superficially comfortable you are, the less likely you are to be successful because you simply won't have the energy or the nerve to go take a risk. Most people are happier (in a broad sense) with a steady paycheck and the "security" it brings...but, as Felix says, that steady check is guaranteed to keep you from becoming rich. Why? Read the book.

Aside from giving good advice, this is also a cracking good read and shows people can still write books without resorting to ghostwriters. If nothing else, pick up a copy and read it for inspiration. You might not become filthy rich, but you might be encouraged to take a few more chances. If you're happy with a safe, marginally comfortable existence and are scared to death of taking a risk, don't bother.

Do you really have what it takes to be rich?

Excellent, entertaining, stimulating and intelligent book. You may not get rich, but definitely will get richer reading it.

Excellent Motivation and Entreprenuer book for readers!!! Loved it all!!

I found out about this book while reading Forbes magazine and there was a little article in the back that was talking about Felix Dennis and how he became UK richest man. After reading the article I decided to purchase this book and loved every single minute of it. It gives you motivation and hope that you can succeed to matter what situation your in as long as you have the desire and willingness to get RICH! and succeed. Two of my favorite quotes in his book is,

"Quitting is not dishonorable. Quitting when you believe you can still succeed is. You must keep the faith. Belief in yourself and faith in your project can move mountains. But not if you insist on trying to scale the mountain by an impossible route which has already failed. "

"You should remember you are unique. Any scientist will tell you so. No other human was ever born, or will ever be born with the same combination of upbringing, flaws and qualities that you possess. Why should you not believe in yourself?
Even the fact of your existence, that you were created by the swiftest sperm of the millions let loose upon the luckiest of eggs that day, is a miracle. What were the odds that you who would result? Yes, you, sitting in your chair reading these words right now. How then, could you not believe in yourself? Nature did. Destiny did. Or, if you wish, your God did.

If you want to be rich you must work for it. But you must believe in it, too. You must believe in yourself, if only to armor yourself against the laughter of the gods in your quest. Your mad quest to be rich."

Purchase this book today you will LOVE IT as much as I have!!!

A good book worth reading

It's worth the time and money. This book is talking about "super rich" rich. Although I am never going to be that rich, it does teach me a couple valuable lessons. And the author is a really interesting guy.
