More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Well, by reading this book for a start. In How I Made My First Million, sixteen self-made multimillionaires come clean about how they got filthy rich. There's Andrew Reynolds who grew up in a one-bedroom caravan, yet went on to make GBP30 million working from home. Or Dominic McVey who made a fortune importing scooters when he was just 14 and now, aged 23, is head of a thriving cosmetics distribution company. What the people in this book prove is that there's no such thing as a typical millionaire. Some are middle aged, others are barely out of school. Some come from nothing with everything to prove, others reinvent themselves after otherwise indifferent careers. In fact, the only thing they have in common is ambition, motivation and the ability to think big. By reading their insightful and inspirational accounts, you'll learn how they came by their initial ideas, why they succeeded where so many others have failed and, most importantly, why anyone can do it if they just put their minds to it. Witty, moving and packed with invaluable insider tips, How I Made My First Million is essential reading for anyone who has ever had a dream, or dared to think outside the box.

Critical reading for any would-be success story,
By
This review is from: How I Made My First Million (Hardcover)
There are a lot of the books around, so what makes this different?
Well firstly - it's easy to digest, I'm not someone with a lot of time but it's the kind of book you can digest in a few hours over a long weekend. It's also not full of commentary by a self-declared expert who has a BA in Business Studies under his belt. Rather, this a collection of accounts by the entrepreneurs themselves describing how they made it and what they believe are the important qualities that helped them achieve success. Straight from the horse's mouth, it's left to the reader to look for patterns amongst the success stories and decide for themselves whether they can make it too. Although focussed around those who have achieved a significant financial reward, the book is also appropriate for anyone getting started in business or social ventures - it's about what has made people successful and how they've made money. But the lessons are equally valid for non-financial success. (oh and disclaimer - I'm one of the people profiled)
