3.0 out of 5 stars Like everyone else said, no secrets here

Book provides some pretty good stories on how the rich live and even with their elite status how they still aren’t perfect at managing their money. However, the title is misleading because there were no secrets in the text. Gave the book 3 stars because the stories were interesting.

I could not get involved with the story line. Too distracting when the author talks mostly with his involvement in the story line.

Interesting read, but zero actual secrets inside. If you're looking for a book that simply emphasizes financial discipline and clear headed thinking, this is a good read.

This is one of the better books about modern wealth and the many meanings and psychologies around money. It is not an investing book, but is much more valuable. He really discusses what money can and can't do what it means to people's happiness and lives. Now, his perspective Is only really relevant to the top 5-10 percent of earners, but it is still useful

Some good pts
Some sections similar to Millionaire Next Door in terms of identifying successful traits of wealthy. Significant portion of book discusses income inequality, pyschology of money, behavioral finance. I would have enjoyed more focus on successful traits of the wealthy as opposed to so much time on these other areas.

This was highly interesting as each chapter is a new personal story that illustrates a different point. I got a lot of value out of it and I re-read my highlights often. Definitely worth a read.

I wouldn't read it again. Does not impart any new knowledge. There aren't many "secrets" of the wealthy mentioned in this book.

2.0 out of 5 stars Title is misleading

Doesn't focus on any money secrets of the super wealthy. Lots of common sense stuff in here and anecdotes. Not what I was looking for but not a bad book. I wanted more of a how to with tips, didn't want to read chapters about athletes and people who bought baseball teams.

3.0 out of 5 stars Sufficient
Reviewed in Canada on November 1, 2015

The book gives support to the basic concepts of living within your means and directing your money towards tools that will increase your wealth rather than detract from it. The downside, no real insights in the book or concrete tips to further improve your wealth. A decent book but has the feel of having filler the further into it you get.

Interesting book. Enjoyed the statistics and found it an engaging look into how people view money.
For me the value in this book was not in the financial advise but the insight into the behavioural aspects on how money is managed.
