Stating The Obvious 0327 – Book Discussion: Choose Yourself. Be Happy, Make Millions, Live The Dream by James Altucher

I don’t like “self-help” books, but I do like books about self-improvement. This would be one of them.

In this episode I read from and talk about Choose Yourself. Be Happy, Make Millions, Live The Dream by James Altucher. I do of course totally mutilate James’ last name.

James talks about:

The crashing economy.
Unemployment and why it’s not going away.
Rejection.
Making money.
Multiple income streams.
Balancing the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of your existence.
Why the middle class is dead.
Why and how you have been replaced.
Why the corporations don’t like you as an employee.
Why money isn’t happiness.
Why your retirement plan is for shit.
Your excuses.
Why abundance will never come from your job.
How and why to become an idea machine.
Why your opinions don’t matter. You’ve heard some of these from me multiple times. Such as “Why educate people?” and “Nobody is ever going to change his mind.”
How honesty leads to making money.
And . . . how to choose yourself.

This book isn’t Earth-shattering, but it’s damn solid. At 250 pages and well written you can blow through this book in a day of devoted reading. I highly suggest delving into James’ book and exploring his ideas.

Also visit his website/blog which I am tracking and will likely make multiple appearances in Linkage.
