Publisher's summary

Why is it that some people work hard, yet remain poor? How is it that others seem to rise out of poverty and become affluent in a short span of time? The answers are in this little book, which everyone should listen to at some point in their life. If they did, they would know how to become rich relatively quickly. If not, they might spend years working back-breakingly hard, without ever breaking even. That’s how powerful the principles contained in this book are.

The answers to escaping poverty and becoming wealthy are actually well known; they have been tested by time and replicated in different countries, by families and by individuals who have become astonishingly rich. And when you simply follow the principles, they work.

So what are these principles that genuinely lift people out of poverty and ensure their personal wealth? Here are 50. They all work. They will make you richer. They remove the emotion, the politics and the clutter from our thoughts about wealth, and they go straight to the heart of one simple issue: what it genuinely takes to become rich. Prepare to train your brain for wealth. Prepare to become "poverty proof" for life.

Excellent information

It is a great book with valuable information which can be put into practice immediately but will take many years to perfect.
I immediately bought a copy for each of my children as I believe that this is the single most important collection of ideas I can leave with them to change their lives forever

Interesting, honest read

Loved the brutal honesty. Enjoyed the perspective. I usually can't stand the sound of British English audio but this was an easy listen.

Enlightenig and On The Level

I'll give it an A-. Douglas does get to the higher concepts of self actualization, but its missing just a little bit of more structure.

I mean, like in methods. Best practices. The structure of money management. Like an example of what works best.

But that is me talking a bit, because Im all about structure and best methods. Im a little squirrely in the head, so I need that freamework.

But overall its a thumbs up.
