Publisher's summary

This recording is an unabridged and unaltered rendition of the original best-selling blockbuster published in 1937. The book continues to be widely read and studied today. Mr. Hill spent more than 20 years following the careers of, and talking to, many of the most successful men in the country. What he discovered is that they all had certain ideas and attitudes in common. He was inspired in particular by Scottish-American businessman Andrews Carnegie who urged him to research and write a book on what it takes to get rich.

In the book Mr. Hill states that his philosophy is about more than just money. It can be used as a vehicle for success in all lines of work and to obtain whatever a person views as "success". Think and Grow Rich is listed in John C. Maxwell's A Lifetime "Must-Read" books.

Awesome clasic

Read the book but audio version really hit home amazing this stuff should be taught at all schools not the useless crap they try teach kids the World has an epic shortage of leaders and this books explains why !!! Listen 3 times or more it will blow your mind 😃😎

Great book.

This one was the first book I have read on Audio book format and I really like it

A bit dated but a classic

The book is not perfect, and some of the ideas have not aged well. Hats do not cause baldness, and a woman's role is not to support her man. But the core idea that our belief and attitude affects our success is sound. If you believe that you cannot succeed, you won't succeed.

overcoming the fear of self and aggrandizement

living life unshackled...told through the eyes of the standards of civilizations in the human embodiment of such civilizations.

This Book And Its Content Deserve 6 Stars Out Of 5

What did you love best about Think and Grow Rich?

After reading Robert Kiyosaki's Rich Dad Poor Dad, I heard that this book was also great. The content is ridiculously rich, and has saved me tremendously during my financial hardships. Thanks to it, I followed through with my venture and am now prospering comfortably with my new empire Money Coach Alex [dot] com. Many times I felt like I'd fail, I went back to this book and got the necessary push to persist and succeed. A life saver indeed.

What other book might you compare Think and Grow Rich to and why?

I might compare it to my second favorite: Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki, because while they both talk about how to get rich, they also both have different approaches to teaching you how to do so. I was lucky enough to have read both before tumbling on and succeeding in my venture.

Which character – as performed by Jim Killavey – was your favorite?

He didn't have too many performances, and honestly, in the beginning, I was quite annoyed with his style of narration, but I did enjoy his interpretation of Darby's Uncle getting "whipped by the colored child".

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I did not cry, but I did chuckle a bit in some parts. But I definitely got an extreme reaction, the day I felt like quitting my venture, and had the audiobook on pause for a few days. I decided to pick it up in hopes that it would encourage me to keep at it. And like a miracle, it was towards the end of the book, the chapter that speaks of the Ghost of Fear of Ending Broke. That was exactly what I was feeling at that moment, and it was a clear sign that I needed to conquer that fear right there and then.

Any additional comments?

Do get this audiobook, but read AFTER you've read Rich Dad Poor Dad. Rich Dad will give you more of a need to get into Real Estate whereas this book will help you strive in whatever venture/hobby YOU enjoy. Do read them in this exact order and visit me at Money Coach Alex [dot] com so we can share ideas. Good luck all!
