Lot of young people joining these days, and I have no idea how these young people are finding my book.

If you're a teenager and recently read my book, can you let me know HOW you found my book?

Was it a YouTube influencer?

Also I had one mentor of my country who used to discourage these slowlane guys so from both of you atleast I got wisdom till now

(discovered TMF when 15)
I found it praised highly by a (back then at least) personally respected youtuber. It was an 'all books I read so far' or something video.

I bet most are coming from Hamza's video on your book.

I found your book from a James Jani video.
Can confirm I honestly don't know where would I be if I didn't find MJ's book

At 13yrs old, Hamza was the one who recommended the millionaire fastlane to me in this video

View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OhboXK5g9KE


After I read the millionaire fastlane from an audiobook from YouTube, I started to download a free pdf of the book and read it, then I decided to buy it because it made sense to me. Theni decided to buy unscripted then the great rat race escape.
So, Hamza was the one who really influenced me to buy it. Bet he's in this platform as well

Found it through James Jani's video "The Untold Truth About Money".

It's a video with over 12 million views. There are 2 sequences where he mentions the book. Big chances that at least 1 million people saw it.

Still, the best video I have ever seen (anywhere not just youtube).

2 years ago, saw @Valier's video in my feed. I was watching a 3 hour webinar on Amazon FBA at the time when I was 16. I was already on the path of "I wanna get rich" so the millionaire fastlane made sense. Downloaded a pdf, read it, then bought it (it was a long process to get the hardcopy delivered).

The Millionaire Fastlane scared the shit outta me on the path (sidewalk) I was chasing. Thank you MJ.

I learned about Unscripted through James Jani. It was his video about the Toxicity of "Self-help" gurus. He mentioned Unscripted at the end of the video as a book that is different from other "self-help" books.

Felt like the odd one out here. Was 19 when I found your book.

I literally just Googled something like "books on how to be a millionaire fast" like an idiot. Then TMF showed up. Thought it was a scam at first and it would lead me to something like crypto or those BS.

But I eventually got curious and thought "here goes nothing" and read it anyways. Then it changed my entire mindset.

You can try this for yourself, Google "books about millionaires" and TMF would be the second result.

Really reminds me of the ending of the movie The Road (2009), when the child asks "How do I trust you?" and the man replied, "You don't, you just have to give it a shot."

My father owned both of your books and I decided to pick them up and read them. Was sort of a shock - At that age I was sort of oblivious to wealth creation and thought that people who were millionaires/billionaires were simply lucky people who knew other lucky people.

I know this is a very small data sample.

But it's always nice to see a textbook example of the 80/20 rule play out.

I usually go online to sites like pdfdrive.com to find books on how to be rich because I don't really like the life my parents are leading. Struggling to make ends meet and yet slaving everyday to make an employer wealthier while investing every extra change in the bank. Downloading and reading everyday, I chanced on your book one day and decided it was the path I was going to take because it appealed to my way of thinking because when I studied the rich people in my country they were all affiliated in one business or another not slaving 8 to 5 everyday. Since then I've read all your other books and am even on a path towards starting my very first business this vacation

Hamza recommended me.

After seeing the value in it, I personally got 4 of my friends who claim they wanna get rich to join the forum. They were all hyped to join.

2 of them have under 10 posts, and then other 2 forgot about it before even making their first post.

A long long time ago I followed an account on TikTok which was related to making money with stocks (and they did a pretty good job at it actually). One of the videos was books the guy recommended us to read. TMF was one of them. Last Christmas, a family member of mine got TMF as their secret santa gift, and I recognized it, and decided now was as great as a time as ever to read it for myself.
