<div class="bbWrapper">I picked up a book called The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur the other day. I think it was like $4 for Kindle. It&#039;s about 200 pages and follows a lot of the principles of TMF. It&#039;s all about starting business on a shoestring and the author has a no BS way of writing, similar to a lot of posts on this forum. Don&#039;t waste money on business cards without a business, don&#039;t create a 100-page business plan that you won&#039;t end up following, etc. Check it out...<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002P8MEFE/?tag=tff-amazonparser-20" target="_blank" class="link link--external" rel="noopener">Amazon.com: The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur eBook: Mike Michalowicz: Kindle Store</a></div>

I&#039;m a few chapters in and it seems pretty good so far. <br /> <br /> <br /> Also does anyone know anything about Robert Ringer and his audio program called &quot; A Dealmaker&#039;s Dream&quot;? <br /> It&#039;s about the art of making a deal.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">About 3/4 of the way threw Billionaire in training, and probably won&#039;t finish it. He spends the first half of the book taking about the 5 levels of being an entrepreneur. 0 being an employee and 5 being a true entrepreneur. <br /> <br /> Basically what he does is find business for sale, ones that have potential to grow and gets them for a cheap as possible. Turns them around and sells them within a year. Makes it seem alot easier than it actually is.<br /> <br /> Edit: One more thing is he plugs his other books and services alot and it annoys the hell out of me.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Just read Mark Cuban&#039;s book &quot;How to win at the sport of business.&quot; Was a good read, not great but good, fast and entertaining. For $2.99 on Amazon was definitely worth it. <br /> <br /> Also, just finished &quot;The Fountainhead&quot;, Ayn Rand. EXCELLENT book, highly recommended.</div>

Damn!!! Such a story. People call Jobs selfish, liar, totally not loyal, a**hole BUT at the same time say they consider themselves lucky to have worked for him and it that it was their best job! Wow..</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Re-reading The Millionaire Fastlane.... it&#039;s only been 3 months since I read it for the first time, but I&#039;ve got a much deeper understanding of the different concepts now.....also a good reminder of how boring mediocrity is (slowlane)</div>

 

[Nick2169]

<div class="bbWrapper">I&#039;m about a third of the way through <i>Start Your Own Business: The ONLY Startup Book You&#039;ll Ever Need by Entrepreneur Press</i>. It&#039;s very informative so far, in fact at times a little too informative as it tends to get bogged down a bit in extraneous details. It&#039;s also meant to be more of a reference book (it&#039;s about 700 pages) than one that you read straight through from cover to cover. I&#039;d recommend it for when you need a quick intro or refresher on a particular subject.</div>

[dubaismartmoney]

<div class="bbWrapper">The Thank You Economy by Gary Vaynerchuk<br /> <br /> <br /> The Thank You Economy is about something big, something greater than any single revolutionary platform. It isn&#039;t some abstract concept or wacky business strategy—it&#039;s real, and every one of us is doing business in it every day, whether we choose to recognize it or not. It&#039;s the way we communicate, the way we buy and sell, the way businesses and consumers interact online and offline.</div>

 

[Harli87]

<div class="bbWrapper">I recently read JBL&#039;s (self-made millionaire wrestler&#039;s) Have More Money Now. I wonder what he would be preaching if he never made it in wrestling <img src="/community/imgs/emoticons/em-wink.png" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=";)" title="Wink ;)" data-shortname=";)" /> Slowlane techniques in this book but his budgeting advice is good. (Of course he made his millions as a celeb. As MJ says, he&#039;s investing to maintain wealth, rather than to get it)</div>

 

[Moneymadness]

<div class="bbWrapper">I&#039;m currently rereading TMF again to grasp a better profound understanding in the book.<br /> <br /> Also reading, Start Small, Profit Big in Real Estate, by Jay Decima. So far it&#039;s a great book for a beginner&#039;s journey into real estate.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">In the past few months, I&#039;ve read:<br /> <br /> I will teach you to be rich (Ramit Sethi) - A great book to take care of your personal finance<br /> <br /> Getting things done (David Allen) - a great productivity and organization book, prevents you from forgetting anything ever again.<br /> <br /> A Million bucks by 30 (Alan corey) - a good inspirational story, showing that with enough determination, you can reach your goals. Not exactly fastlane in my opinion, but a good read nevertheless.<br /> <br /> Influence: The psychology of persuasion (Robert B. Cialdini) - a must read for anyone who is into marketing. It might be a bit hard to read at times, but it is well worthwhile. It is full of interesting anecdotes as well.<br /> <br /> I am currently reading:<br /> <br /> -Breakthrough rapid reading<br /> -7 Habits of successful people<br /> -Personal MBA<br /> -Math better explained</div>

That is sort of ironic in itself given the title of the book, but after the first two or three techniques were revealed I started using them and my reading has been much faster ever since.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">I actually do work receiving, tearing open, and unpacking used college books (I work at a warehouse and although most of the books are usually big complex textbooks, I get to unpack (and read) some of the best of the best fiction-style books that some students are required to read at the university level. Here&#039;s probably my favorite of all: <i>The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time</i>, by Mark Haddon. It&#039;s a small orange-colored paperback with an image of an upside-down dog actually cut out of the cover. I like it because the writing style is so pure, unembellished, and really puts me (the reader) into the story, and although I&#039;m only about three quarters of the way through, I&#039;ve experienced the full gamut of emotions. What an excellent author! I&#039;ll have finished reading it in a couple more days, but I think I want to stretch it out and make it last another week <img src="/community/imgs/emoticons/em-smile2.png" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":-)" title="Smile :-)" data-shortname=":-)" /></div>
