'The Choose Yourself Guide to Wealth' by James Altucher - My Book Review




I picked the 'Choose Yourself Guide to Wealth' up on Amazon for £0.99 for my E-Reader (Laptop) during December last year as a fan of James Altucher, his Blog, Podcast and becoming wealthy funnily enough. You can check out his site/Blog HERE

I dipped in and out of the book during the month and finally finished it in January. For those of you that are unfamiliar with James' work, he's witty, VERY honest, self deprecating, and intelligent. An appealing mix for me. 

This book is packed full of information on producing an income for yourself, investing, negotiating, influencing others, how to become an ideas machine, developing habits, productivity, and making money in the 21st Century to name a few. 

As I mention above, James has a very witty writing style, and he uses this to great effect on the following chapters:
-How to sell anything
-How to convince anyone of anything in 60 seconds
-How I ended up in prison and how I busted out
-How to get an MBA from Eminem. 

I didn't agree with everything James talks about in this book. He speaks from the heart, which I like, but I question some of the evidence he has to back up his claims. I flat out disagreed with some of what he said, but he made me think differently and changed my mind in other areas. 

Overall for £0.99, I think it's a steal.
