Story
Most of us still live by the motto, “No pain, no gain.” But this approach to life is actually a prescription for fear, frustration, and self-doubt. Much of what we learn about success is based on the pain/gain idea: in essence, work harder, be more persistent, and develop greater willpower. The New Psycho-Cybernetics formula is anything but painful. It will allow you to achieve all your goals, faster, easier, and with less strain than you ever thought possible.

But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a US Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force Tactical Air Controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events.

Since you were old enough to hold a job, you've been hoodwinked to believe that wealth can be created by blindly trusting in the uncontrollable and unpredictable markets: the housing market, the stock market, and the job market. I call this soul-sucking, dream-stealing dogma "The Slowlane" - an impotent financial gamble that dubiously promises wealth in a wheelchair. For those who don't want a lifetime subscription to "settle-for-less", there is an alternative.

Michael Ellsberg and Bryan Franklin think you've been fed a lie: that if you save for decades and invest in 401(k)s, IRAs, and a home, these investments will grow steadily over decades, allowing 20 to 30 years of secure, peaceful retirement. This might have been true at some point in the last century, but it is not true any longer. If you want to get ahead and enjoy a life of prosperity, the authors argue that you must invest in the most powerful source of wealth you'll ever know: your own earning power.

The world has led you to believe that financial freedom is not something you can willfully create in your life. You have been taught to view wealth as something that happens only to a lucky few who win a random business lottery or are blessed with unimaginable talent. The truth is that creating excessive financial wealth does not come down to luck or talent. It comes down simply to your beliefs, understanding, and views - the "pillars" that reinforce your every action.

Publisher's Summary
The Myth: If you get into a good college, study hard, and graduate with excellent grades, you will be pretty much set for a successful career.
The Reality: The biggest thing you won't learn in college is how to succeed professionally. Some of the smartest, most successful people in the country didn't finish college. None of them learned their most critical skills in an institution of higher education. And like them, most of what you'll need to learn to be successful you'll have to learn on your own, outside of school.
Michael Ellsberg set out to fill in the gaps by interviewing a wide range of millionaires and billionaires who don't have college degrees, including fashion magnate Russell Simmons, Facebook cofounder Dustin Moskovitz and founding president Sean Parker, WordPress creator Matt Mullenweg, and Pink Floyd songwriter and lead guitarist David Gilmour. Among the fascinating things he learned:
- How fashion designer Marc Ecko started earning $1,000 a week in high school with his own clothing business and later grew it into an empire.
- How billionaire Phillip Ruffin went from lowly department store clerk with no college degree to owner of Treasure Island on the Vegas Strip.
- How John Paul DeJoria went from homelessness to billionaire as the founder of John Paul Mitchell Systems hair care products.
This book is your guide to developing practical success skills in the real world. Even if you've already gone through college, the most important skills weren't on the curriculum - how to find great mentors, build a world-class network, learn real-world marketing and sales, make your work meaningful (and your meaning work), build the brand of you, master the art of bootstrapping, and more.
Learning the skills in this book well is a necessary addition to any education, whether you're a high school dropout or a graduate of Harvard Law School.

I can't get past the introduction
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
Maybe the book, not the audio book.
What was most disappointing about Michael Ellsberg’s story?
I couldn't get past the introduction.... The narrator drags out the last letter of the last word in each sentence. He sounds like a "Vally Girl" when he talks... It's super annoying.
Would you be willing to try another one of Erik Synnestvedt’s performances?

A terrible waste of time
I am investing time into this review so that others wouldn't have to waste their time listening to it. In a nutshell, the reader is the worst I've ever heard, and the author keeps alluding to the possibility that he might teach you something in the next paragraph, but that something never comes. Beyond marketing his friends' online businesses, this guy has nothing to offer. Such a waste.

Great book, narration could be better
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes. This book is full of very useful information. If you liked the 4 hour workweek, then this is definitely a good read.
How could the performance have been better?
The narrator's use of inflection at the end of each sentence made me want to stop listening. In fact, I will not pick another audible book with this narrator due to this.

Life changing content!!
This book has heavily impacted the way I think.
I see the world in a whole new light.
With the amount of information that is given in this book, self study, and self mastery become habitual.
College is a status dynamic. We don't need to waste our time for a credential just to "get a good job".
Michael illustrates lucrative techniques that allow any reader to transform their entire course of life.
The paradigm shifts provided by Michael and the interviewees he mentions tremendous life stories about really can have a positive impact on anyone who hears them.
The alteration of thinking and the new mindsets and viewpoints that have been established from reading this book have granted serious new found potential that everyone has.
There is not enough to be said about this exquisite piece. I can go on for hours about how deep the stories told have instilled inspiration and action taking skills capable of self mastery.
The references and resources, the reviews, and interviews all provided by Michael are so helpful that it will make you successful if you just pay attention and take action.
I did research on everyone he mentions, read up on their marketing, learned more than ever and have prospered ever sense!

Suprisingly Good
What made the experience of listening to The Education of Millionaires the most enjoyable?
I stumbled upon this book by accident and I am glad that I did!Lots of useful info and insight into how successful people became successful. Lots of useful info and stories about how others put themselves into a position to win.Also questions the idea of going to college. Even if you did go to college you can learn something from listening to this analysis and hearing some very unique stories.
What did you like best about this story?
Sales,Copywriting,Marketing, and positioning advice on how to get ahead. Stories of successful people I had not heard of before that can be contacted. Lots of great tips and biographies for those interested in getting to the next level.
Have you listened to any of Erik Synnestvedt’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No, I have not.
Any additional comments?
2 Parts to this download. Listen at 1.5x speed. Get it, its worth it. After you listen to it, pay your Kid 20.00 to listen to this then turn in a book review.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
No, narration was awful
Would you be willing to try another one of Erik Synnestvedt’s performances?
Never again. He was painful to listen too. Shame on the author for hiring this guy.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
It was like listening to nails on a chalkboard with Eric's narration. I know that is harsh, but it honestly was that bad.
Any additional comments?
Really great book, it is unfortunate with the narrator made it unpalatable.

Material alright but narrator horrible!
The book content itself is okay and provided some interesting points however I found myself paying more attention to how terrible the narrator was. I had to show my wife because she didn’t believe me and when she heard it she laughed hysterically. It was truly that bad and because of this it is the worst audiobook I have ever purchased. I highly suggest getting the print and downloadable version and reading yourself. If you have to do the audio version I would just skip it.
