##### SUMMARY

UNSCRIPTED - The Great Rat Race Escape : From Wage Slavery to Wealth, How to Start a Purpose Driven Business and Win Financial Freedom for a Lifetime
(Yes, really long but I was able to get to work on the cover!)

By all appearances, Jeff and Samantha Trotman are living the American Dream. But behind the white picket fence, they endure an American Nightmare. With little time for each other, a pile of debt, and Ferrari taste on a Ford budget, the ruse of affluence is killing them. Two respectable jobs and a lovely suburban house paint a pretty picture, but behind the ink is a broken marriage rife with meaningless work and dead dreams. And now, with an unplanned pregnancy, they’re facing a mid-life crisis twenty years early.

With little time and looming bankruptcy, the Trotmans are forced to face the red-pill truth they long denied: They were living, but they weren’t alive. Determined to resurrect their life and their marriage, the Trotmans plot a rat-race escape—only to find themselves more thickly in it.

As tensions rise and hope fades, follow along step-by-step as the Trotmans pivot to a new strategy and a new career: starting a business as entrepreneurs.

While they navigate their journey, you’ll learn 120 wealth-building strategies and principles that your mainstream financial guru won’t dare reveal—actionable concepts that will help you profit your way into the Unscripted 1%, an emerging economic class of entrepreneurs who enjoy a lifetime of freedom emancipated from miserly living and Wall Street's "save, pray, and wait" paradigm. Discover how one family escapes the rat-race grind and wins a lifetime of financial freedom, leaving behind the tyranny of meaningless jobs and mediocre living— and how you can too.

• The Bad Math Principle: Why most people will never escape the rat-race, much less earn financial freedom.
• La estrategia del 5/1/10: cómo este simple ejercicio desenterrará la vida de sus sueños definitivos mientras establece un marco de decisión para su realidad
• El principio Honeypot: por qué la narrativa de los medios financieros de "invertir $ 100 / mes durante 40 años en fondos indexados" es parte del mismo esquema de carrera de ratas, solo un lado diferente de la misma moneda manipulada.
• La estrategia de cambio dual: los dos lados divergentes del cambio y cómo puede hacerte una fortuna.
• La estrategia Value Skew: cómo encontrar literalmente miles de ideas de negocios y por qué nunca necesita "interrumpir" o inventar nada nuevo o novedoso.
• La estrategia del día de pago del millonario: cómo detectar oportunidades para contratarte a ti mismo y obtener un ingreso millonario instantáneo.
• El Principio de Cenicienta: Por qué iniciar un negocio basado en una tendencia cultural o una moda pasajera es una idea horrible.
• La estrategia de la perseverancia: Nunca vuelvas a luchar con la motivación; los cuatro ingredientes necesarios para aprovechar la motivación y determinación ilimitadas, independientemente de los obstáculos en su camino.
• La estrategia de valor triangulado: aprenda a nunca renunciar a tres pies de oro: la estrategia de 3 puntas para maximizar los rendimientos de marketing al mismo tiempo que ilumina la decisión de "abandonar o continuar".
• ¡y más de 110+ más!

No permita que la carrera de ratas y sus cómplices proclamen que su vida no es esencial. No deje que la carrera de ratas lo atraiga a salvar su vida por la promesa de una jubilación de edad avanzada. No dejes que la carrera de ratas te lleve a una existencia tediosa medicada por la televisión, los videojuegos y los eventos deportivos triviales.

Vaya sin guión, escape de la carrera de ratas y gane su felices para siempre.

This book changed my perspective on so many things and I cannot wait to read it again.

 

[klaipeda]

I read it and loved it

 

[Zwelethu]

Read it once, need an audio book though, to go through it properly.

 

[natashaquinn88]

Hey MJ,

Finished your book! I absolutely loved it. So much value packed into the cover. I read TMF over Christmas on kindle and immediately ordered all 3 of your books hard copy. I received The Great Rat Race Escape before Unscripted so started reading it. I want to join INSIDERS but I will finish Unscripted in no time so that will be possible really soon. Your books inspire me but they also make it clear that inspiration alone will not get you to where you want to go. I work hard and I know I can manifest what I put my mind to. I want freedom from the script. Freedom from this bs rat race. I have ideas swimming around and I have a specialized skill. The pieces are starting to come together. I know this is possible.

Thank you a million times over
~Natasha from Maui

Just finished the book. Aside from the incredible strategies I am taking action on, that ending to the Trotman's story with what Jeff says at the very end, dude... beyond badass!

Finished it yesterday! Putting names and a storyline to the concepts you've discussed in previous books has really helped me understand the Unscripted trajectory. Time to get back to work!

 

[twchristy7]

I'm on my second read-through of this! I love the format. I found it very helpful to create index cards with each of the principles, strategies, and key concepts.

 

[nkwukachiedu]

What do you get when you mix pure, practical, no-BS business insights and ideas with a very relatable story? Yep, you guessed right! The Great Rat Race Escape is the first business book you should've read and most likely the last you'll need. MJ, you outdid yourself on this...

 

[stormer]

After the first 2 books, I've read "The Great Rat-Race Escape" as well. It is a wonderful book. It's very nice and narrative. It was very pleasant to turn back to the story of the couple time to time.

 

[NeoDialectic]

I recently listened to it and it's my favorite one of the series

I listened to the entire book on Amazon Audible. Awesome stuff. Now I need to go back and read "Unscripted ." But first, "Grit" by Angela Duckworth. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, experience and insights to help guide us on this path!

 

[Nate_34]

Listened to it on Amazon Audible. 16+ hours. Awesome info, inspiring story. Can't wait to put it to use.

Gave it a 5 star rating on Audible.

 

[FLdetermined]

I’ve read the Rat-Race Escape. Brilliant read and a great spin on traditional self help literature with fiction/non fiction split. Like the millionaire fastlane and unscripted , will enjoy reading and listening to this over and over

I finished the book a couple of months ago. Amazing! Going through it again.

 

[es.rene99]

I read the book, and I'm reading it again with my fiancée, thank you so for such valuable work MJ!

 

[sfarieri]

Hi @MJ DeMarco i read The Great Rat Race Escape and wow what a fantastic book! Excellent work. The soup story was inspirational too. Loved the blend.

I read the Great Rat Race Escape just after it came out, but I forgot to post here.

I think I read it within a few days and I liked the Principles/Lessons that were included. The story also got you emotionally invested in the young couple and their dream.

For the cost of a $20 book, you could save yourself years of false starts in business, not to mention a ton of money.

Thank you MJ.

 

[MJ DeMarco]

after certain sentences appears a letter and number, i.e. P17. It looks like it would be a link to a footnote

It references a prior principle or strategy... P17 = Principle 17, S49 = Strategy 49.
