Recommendation

If you ever wondered how Bill Gates, Warren Buffet or even John D. Rockefeller got so rich, rest assured it took hard work and restless individualism. Martin S. Fridson profiles self-made billionaires and describes the principles and strategies they used to achieve their wealth. Fridson identifies nine fundamental strategies, which become the basis for each of his chapters. His ideas may sound familiar – as may some of the stories he cites, such as the rise of Rockefeller and Bill Gates. However, Fridson combines these ideas and images compellingly, highlighting the major strategies and providing vivid portraits. getAbstract recommends this book to general readers, as well as executives, company owners and anyone who feels driven to get very, very rich.

Take-Aways

  • You can learn how to create and acquire wealth from the principles and strategies of past and present self-made billionaires.
  • All prospective billionaires face the danger of competition, which reduces the rate of profit.
  • To become a billionaire, you must overcome the obstacle of social conventions.
