The Choose Yourself Guide to Wealth

By: James Altucher

Narrated by: James Altucher

This is a bold book by James Altucher. He not only gives you a new map for the new financial landscape but he also has skin in the game. This is the first financial book in which the author reveals how he makes his own money.

We are living in an epic period of change, danger, and opportunity. The economy is crashing and booming every few years. People are getting fired and replaced by computers and Chinese workers. The stock market crashes with regularity. Every fix from the government makes things worse. The old world has been demolished, and people are desperate for answers.

James Altucher's The Choose Yourself Guide to Wealth contains those answers. This is the field guide to the new world we live in. You can play by the old rules and get left behind, or you can use these new ideas and become wealthy. This is not a book for the faint of heart. Listen at your own risk, because sometimes the truth is hard to take. But for those who are ready to hear, James provides an updated map of the new territory for generating wealth and freedom. This book is the eye opener of the century. It is the guide to building, keeping, and investing your money and breaking free from the chains of rusted, old thinking.

Excellent audio book read by the author Unabridged

A great read that I would read again. Contains years of knowledge from around the world.

Honest, easy to listen too, and flows nicely!!

I enjoyed his honesty & openess! I agree, you need to exercise your idea muscles.

Very thoughtful

it ended faster that I would have liked, but the advise here is no waste

“Free is something you choose everyday”

This reading by the author was very conversational and I expect the written version had more content. That being said, once I got into the Altucher’s tone, I gained a lot of wisdom and perspective. I love the “idea practice” and I’ve already noticed that I’m thinking more clearly as a result.
This book was different from most self development books as it didn’t just rephrase universal principles or give obvious advice, but actually offered a very outside the box and honest perspective of the changing world, in a mostly objective way.
The quotes from this book felt authentic and useful and I found myself sharing ideas with good reception.
I didn’t expect a step by step plan to become wealthy and really liked the abstract-ness that some reviewers mentioned, as I could apply it to my own situation and customize advice.
Thanks for the helpful ideas James

Quite a surprise

Although it's like a podcast, I'm really glad I came across this audiobook. It is a great overview of the mindset you should have to find motivation into executing ideas. Worth keeping for future reference.
