National Bestseller
"Like going to business school and therapy all in one book."
—James Clear, New York Times Bestselling Author, Atomic Habits
Once a barista in a small cafe making $6.50 an hour, Andrew Wilkinson built a business valued at over a billion dollars by the time he was 36—and yet, his path to success was anything but a straight line.
In Never Enough, Wilkinson pulls back the curtain on the lives of the ultra-rich, sharing insights into building a successful business that has been called a “Berkshire Hathaway, but for internetcompanies,” and a surprising first-person account of what it's actually like to become a billionaire.
Never Enough features both the lessons Wilkinson has learned as well as the many mistakes made on the road to wealth—some of which cost him money, happiness, and important relationships.
Taking a "no secrets" approach to stories the wealthy rarely reveal, Wilkinson is unwaveringly honest about some of the unexpected downsides of money: its toxic effect on personal relationships, how the lifestyles of the rich and famous aren't all they're cracked up to be, and how competition with peers leaves everyone—even billionaires—feeling like they never have enough.
In this book, you'll discover:

Incredible. Probably one of the best books I have ever read and a hell of a good story. The all-encompassing obsession is so well described and it is just so emotionally honest, it really makes you reflect on your own life, and what you do and don't want to do with it. I feel compelled to leave a review, even if no-one reads it, it is just such a great read.
