An Insight Into The Mind Of A Millionaire Or Two…

Quick post today, and a couple of recommendations for you.

I have always dreamt big in my life, I don’t know whether it was the fact that I was born disabled, that gave me an amazing keep on keeping on ability or not - but I do know I have always wanted to achieve wealth, and success from a pretty young age…

As I KEEP “preaching” success is NOT all about reinventing the wheel, and nothing holds more true than that in a recent book I have just read.

“Anyone Can Do It” by Duncan Bannatyne, shows how a 30 year old guy with little prospects went from £0-£170MILLION pounds with ZERO business acumen.

The second book, “Screw It Let’s Do It” by Richard Branson, delved deep in actual business and life management skills which Mr. Virgin actually feels are necessary to succeed in business. It looks as though the book is actually written BY Branson - himself, as his dyslexia comes thorugh in it - making it a short, punchy read (not fabricated and fluffed up like most)…

My verdict?

Both great reads, and I highly recommend that you check them out. 

Both of these guys would be great mentors if I could afford their fees! - and speaking of mentoring, stay tuned for something very special coming soon…

Your comments, and any further book recommendations you know of are appreciated…

    Hey,
    These books are encouraging to say the least. I would second the suggestion that you read them if you are in to making money on the internet.

    Oh yea! Richard is my man!
    He is simply wonderful and now that I am reading his bio graphy I am really taken by what he is made of!

    Every business man/woman should read his books for some motivation.

    Ray, thanks for taking out time to refer these books to your reader. I am sure people will really enjoy!

    Take Care
