The problem with all these &quot;how to get rich&quot; books is that they&#x27;re full of anecdotes, quotations, fictional stories, motivational bullshit etc. which make you feel good while reading them, but as soon as you put the book back on the shelf, it&#x27;s all gone. It&#x27;s just a temporary boost of energy and motivation, because reading requires almost no effort and more often that not it&#x27;s just another way of procrastination. Seriously, do you think the majority of rich people prepared for &quot;getting rich&quot; by reading hundreds of motivational and self-help books? It&#x27;s not like you&#x27;ll find some magical recipe in one of the books which you can just apply to your life and 10 years from now become a billionare. Each success story is so different and depends on so many factors - being in right time at the right place among the most important - that it&#x27;s impossible to simply recreate any of them and just wait for the results.
