About this audiobook

Can a short 18-minute conversation I overheard from a millionaire make you a fortune?

It did for me.

And it can do the same for you.

Go back to 1996 and eavesdrop on the tense 18-minute argument I unwittingly heard. An altercation between two friends. One living a dream. The other faking it. Listen in on the powerful conversation that changed the trajectory of my life and ultimately made me a millionaire— many times over.

Delivered in a raw narrative form, step into my shoes as a depressed limousine driver and five-time failed entrepreneur. Witness the argument as I did, an argument that exposed wealth’s guiding first-principles. A poignant story of sacrifice, immutable regret, and life-changing insight... a transcendent tale relevant in any year, any economy, or any country.

Discover the right questions and you’ll discover the right answers— answers that will set you free.

Based on a true story.

È un audiolibro che dura più di 12 ore: un tempo che va in contrasto con la tesi principale dell’autore, secondo cui il tempo è la nostra risorsa più preziosa, e questo investimento di tempo non è ripagato da un contenuto che purtroppo resta a un livello troppo astratto. Può essere utile come infarinatura sul mindset imprenditoriale, ma non lo consiglio a chi cerca una guida concreta per costruire un business. Emblematico il capitolo sulla finanza: non offre strategie concrete, ma si limita a dire che va approfondita altrove. Strano, in un libro così lungo. Avevo apprezzato l’onestà iniziale, quando l’autore afferma di non voler fare upselling. Ma in realtà ci sono vari inviti a unirsi alla sua community, e l’eccessiva durata dell’audiolibro rappresenta a tutti gli effetti un costo implicito. La lettura è a mio parere troppo accelerata, probabilmente per ridurre la percezione della lunghezza. 📌 In sintesi: buone intenzioni, poca sostanza. Il tempo investito non è ripagato.

About the author

MJ DeMarco is a semi-retired entrepreneur, investor, advisor, and international best-selling author who's books have been translated in over 15 languages worldwide. He is the current founder of Viperion Publishing Corp., a media company focused on online and print content distribution. He also is admin/founder for The Fastlane Forum, the web's leading destination forum for start-up, finance, and entrepreneurial business discussions.Prior to embarking into the world of writing and authorship, he was the former start-up Founder/CEO of Limos.com (1997-2007), a global ground transportation aggregator and marketplace that he successfully built and grew into a profitable multi-million dollar company, all with no money, no formal training, and with just a few employees. In 2001, he sold the company in an exit event but later reacquired the company via bankruptcy reorganization. He later sold the company again in 2007 to a Phoenix-based private equity company.By refusing to accept society's default template for mediocrity (THE SCRIPT: jobs, 401(k)s, frugality, give your life savings to Wall-Street) MJ was able to retire young in his thirties without sacrificing the good life. Yes, that means he isn't playing Wall-Street's "hope, wait, and pray" game where you nervously invest all your savings into the stock market, all while commiserating over the Starbucks you couldn't drink because saving $4.12 was more important. (Do people seriously believe that sh*t?)Currently, MJ owns a publishing company which produces, distributes, and licenses his work around the world while contributing daily to TheFastlaneForum.com: an entrepreneurial community featuring over 50,000 entrepreneurs. He lives in Scottsdale Arizona and enjoys road trips, softball, travel, fitness and nutrition, working out, and recklessly exploring the Sonoran desert on his UTV.
