Summary

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.

More than just a re-hash of the first book...

I really liked Choose Yourself (original book) but was sceptical that the wealth guide would give me anything new. I am glad to say I was wrong! Read by James in the same upbeat, anecdotal style, the Choose Yourself Guide to Wealth has a lot of counter-cultural wisdom in it and is detailed enough to be quite practical; for example the Q&A bit about setting up a business. As a teacher and parent, I see my students and my own kids travelling down the same (now broken) path as their parents, as nobody seems to brave enough to tell them that they need to go a different way. Kudos to you James for being brave and shining a light on a new but exciting path to success and (let's hope) happiness.

Easy to listen to with many valuable lessons

Great advise and ideas especially to write done ideas every day to excerise the idea muscle.

Some good principles to think about when it comes to Wealth

Some good principles to think about when it comes to Wealth.
Some debatable. In overall, another great book from James Altucher.
Not sure about the combination of James and Claudia, which at points felt unrehearsed.
Other than that, great. Keep doing this James!

Ideas, but not deeply explored ones

Altucher—as he himself is keen to illustrate frequently—has a rich and varied past; it’s such a shame therefore that every topic he touches on is handled with such brevity. Breezing over significant subjects (in his own, particularly monotone style) ranging from leadership to investment’s, it feels as though we the reader are at the receiving end of one of his many money spinning ideas (which of course we are).

There are some good messages in the book, but examples are poorly illustrated and important subject are hurried.

I’m left feeling that there was something life-changing he wanted to say, but simply can’t get it out.
