Publisher's summary

Are you tired of just paying bills until you die? Are you wasting your life at a job that doesn't make you fulfilled or financially secure? Then Future Proofing You is for you.

In this life-changing book, celebrated author and entrepreneur Jay Samit, who's worked with such visionaries as Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Reid Hoffman, and hundreds of successful entrepreneurs, shares the key understandings and step-by-step process for becoming rich and never needing another job again. To prove the power of his Twelve Truths, Samit also details the journey of how he mentored a broke millennial with these principles and empowered him to go from being on welfare to becoming a self-made millionaire in one year.

Building upon the principles in his internationally acclaimed book Disrupt You!, Samit explains: how to identify an idea and market to start your business; how to build a virtual company with little or no capital; the latest free software tools for managing your business; ways to get a piece of a trillion-dollar opportunity bigger than mobile; how to harness the three primary fears of others to generate more sales; strategies for finding the right mentors to accelerate your success; and techniques to structure any deal for creating recurring revenue and lasting wealth.

Best book I’ve purchased in years

I buy a lot of books on topics of self help, self improvement, finding purpose, etc. I heard Jay’s interview on the impact theory podcast and immediately bought the book. Jay takes business concepts/entrepreneurship and makes it less complicated to a lay person like me. The metaphors and they way he breaks things down make it so easy to understand. This book has the most usable information and actionable steps I’ve found in any book I’ve bought. Invaluable information!

Audiobook Version: The fade in is a bit off

A lot of the transitions from chapter to chapter sound as if your mouth was turned away from the microphone. It gave me abit of anxiety, that I was losing information, so I did rewind often. Other than that, the stories and anecdotes gave me chills (so good) and the name dropping was tolerable, given the awesome lessons that came from it. I own this copy now, so a replay is definitely in the cards. Thank you very much. May millions take action and make you proud.

Best Modern Entrepreneur Starter Guide

This book is greatly structure in the order the information is given out. It covers all areas from the beginner sitting at the kitchen table with their labtop to major cooperations team functions. The narrator delivers in a way that was captivating, and along with the valuable information giving, I always made sure I was in a place free of distraction any time I turned the book on. With it being written currently after our global delimma, it gives great insight on where businesses are today. This is a book I will definitely revisit and listen to again in the future as I continue my journey just to make sure I stay align with my goals

I LOVE CHAPTER 3

I thought this book was going to be about tech, but Chapter 3 stopped me cold in my tracks. It's simply transformational. It got to the root. Where the sun "don't" shine. It used the dark side as leverage. Gave me self awareness to see fear in a whole new different perspective in a few sentences. Drop mic! Kaboom!

Want to know why it is urgent? Go straight to chapter 3 and thank me later.

Without action...

This book is just words on pages taking up space on your shelf. Truth is, we weren’t born just to pay bills. Yet, the majority of generations were taught to get an education, a good job, then retire. Which leads to two things- getting old, then death.

When there can be so much more to life. And I feel like in Future Proofing You, Jay offers up a solid example of how to do it.

Loved it!!

This book was so informative, but only time will tell if it's actually doable. I plan to listen to it again, so I can go back and take notes. It says a lot if I can pique my sister's interest enough to purchase the book. I gave the performance only 3 stars, because at times it seemed a little glitchy. The recording would stop and restart on its own. I came to expect that when I was receiving notifications, however, it would also do it for no reason.
