repetitive

I feel like each chapter essentially made the same point as the last. The point made was a good one (albeit pretty obvious in my opinion) but it could have been made in a single chapter.

Not Writen For Business People

I urged to buy this book as it came up more and more and I got thinking it would be a suitable book for everyone who either wants to become wealthy or wealthier. The book is in my opinion in a boring format and I got nothing of value from this entire book, very disappointing. The book really lost when it says having nice cars is wrong and I should buy a second hand modest car if I want to succeed in life or retire with money. I am a young entrepreneur and always drove good cars and I work hard for it and I get inspired to work harder to achieve my goals and to be able to afford the cars. The approach in this book would suit a very frugal lifestyle person and not a inspiring generation who wants to do well and enjoy the journey to get to one day a retirement. This book for sure does not suit me or my friends.

Endless detail, brief nuggets of helpful insight

The authors basic premise (that the majority of millionaires are not profligate spenders) is of some interest and a little surprising (in a very low key way). However, 98% of the text is dry data - with the occasional nugget of insight tossed in.
If ever a book would have been more useful as a 5 minute executive summary then this is it. (I’m off to search for a summary now!)

Super repetitive

I found this book to have some useful guidance abs advice but it was extremely repetitive and become quite difficult to listen to.

Narration and story felt very dated

Too many unnecessary statistics and percentages used throughout the book that are probably way out of date now anyway. The underlying message and lessons could have been summed up in half the time. The narration felt overly 1950s moral American traditional conservative views. Wouldn’t recommend.

Numbers, numbers, numbers

Lots of numbers but no clear advice other than earn well, but more importantly be frugal.

Some stack it up some don't!!!

Dreary and awfully boring. The narration does not help. I could not finish the listening, the voice of the narrator is an issue.

Great if you like statistics not much else

this book is great if 1) You are into finance reading and 2) you are a fan of statistics.

I stuck out the whole book as I am a stickler for finishing what I start. but by the end I was happy to put it to bed.

The book is simply the results of data processing and surveying millionaires.

The book does make you realise how expenditure can be diverted, but it struggles to keep your attention.
