Publisher's summary
What does it take to become a self-made millionaire? Many have wondered, few have succeeded. Self Made: Confessions of a Twenty Something Self Made Millionaire follows the real life story of Stefan Aarnio, award-winning real estate investor and award-winning entrepreneur through the struggle of starting out with zero cash, zero credit, and zero experience in his pursuit of financial freedom.
Inside Self Made, you will discover the five secret skills that transform ordinary people into self made millionaires. These skills are mastered by the rich, purposely not taught in school, and are hidden from the poor and the middle class.
Join Stefan on his journey as he faces financial ruin, meets his life-changing mentor, and transforms his mind, body, and soul to become self-made.

But even a maverick plays by rules, and Trump has formulated time-tested guidelines for success. He isolates the common elements in his greatest accomplishments; he shatters myths; he names names, spells out the zeros, and fully reveals the deal-maker's art. And throughout, Trump talks—really talks—about how he does it.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Many Americans dream of financial freedom, but they're stuck in dead-end jobs and don't know how to get there. You don't need to be one of them. If you invested $35,000 in the stock market today, it could take 52 years for that investment to grow to $1 million. But if you invested that same amount into one single-family $140,000 rental property, it would only take 19 years. With just two rental properties, you could generate $417,000 in profit in just 10 years. Skeptical?

It is a crazy expensive car parked in your garage, a victorious symbol that your dreams no longer sleep in fantasies, but are awake with reality.

If Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn had come of age at the end of the 20th century looking for an all-American adventure, they probably would've headed for Vegas. However, they'd have been hard-pressed to go on a wilder ride than the one taken by Tom Breitling and Tim Poster to the top of the famed Golden Nugget Hotel and Casino. Call them the Odds Couple.

The Myth: If you get into a good college, study hard, and graduate with excellent grades, you will be pretty much set for a successful career. The Reality: The biggest thing you won't learn in college is how to succeed professionally. Some of the smartest, most successful people in the country didn't finish college. None of them learned their most critical skills in an institution of higher education. And like them, most of what you'll need to learn to be successful you'll have to learn on your own, outside of school.

The definition of a woman has become more flexible than ever in history, and The Oracle offers a clear path to what is feminine instead of feminist.

Powerful and pure gold
If you put this book into the right hands and execute the strategies in your real estate endeavors, you are already 2 steps ahead of the game. Of course, you cannot jump feet first with just this book but it details the trials and tribulations and key turning points that took Stefan from a small player to a big player to reach his entrepreneurial dreams. If real estate is something for you to look into then give this book a read. Hearing what Stefan went through gives you a clear picture whether you think you can enter the jungle and come out of it alive. RIP to a prodigy. He is a mentor to this generation and the coming generation who don't know where they are at in life.

The book everyone was waiting for
This is the book that everyone that wants to join the real estate world was waiting for.
I have read and listened to so many audiobooks that give tips and steps in how to do real estate. But this particular book is an autobiography of Stefan on how he started and continued real estate. This is awesome because its a story of the conversations,actions, and the challenges he lived to be in the game for 0 to riches. Not as other authors that tells how awesome is real estate and give some tips with a blury path. this is gold because is the actual path storytelled by the author of his life. Great job Stefan 5/5

A fantastic autobiography of the legend Stefan!
I originally purchased this audiobook on a downloadable format years ago. Since then I have easily listened to this piece a dozen times over. Stefan Aarnio goes into detail about his thoughts, motivations, decisions, successes and failures as a young man in his early twenties trying to tame the wild beast that is Real Estate Entrepreneurship. This book is easily my favorite motivational material to return to, as Stefan painstakingly writes in a very down to earth, up and coming, average joe format. This story hits so unbelievably close to the issues and mental hurdles young men go through when embarking on the entrepreneur journey, as it takes place before he became a highly successful multimillionaire investor. The highs and the lows of grinding out a successful future are neatly wrapped up in his own personal experiences, which he graciously wrote to all of us in this book. This story isn't one of immediate success, nor is it a "get rich quick" guru guide. No, this story contains all of the painful and deeply important lessons one should learn before diving headfirst into the jungle.
I would highly recommend one consume this book before touching any other piece of real estate related literature.
Respect the grind. Rest in Peace, Stefan Aarnio.

Loved it. This is really clear. Wonderful work. A journey worth starting because Aarnio is not afraid to explain it. It's like a great pitcher where you know the fastball is coming but can you hit it.

An insightful story full of useful takeaways
This is hands down one of the the best wealth building and mindset books I have ever read. Stefan tells the story of his journey from being a broke college kid to a successful real estate entrepreneur before age 30. Throughout, he takes his experiences and shows how they can be translated into useful life lessons.
There's a lot of junk out there in the financial self-help space, but this is a real gem. I can't think of any book more densely packed with profound insights than this one. I heartily recommend it to anyone, along with Stefan's other book, Money People Deal.
