Think & Grow Rich Alternative

9 replies
Hi there,

I've tried reading Think and Grow Rick and Richest Man in Babylon but I must say the books just don't grab me. I can't relate to the language used. Something more like Rich Dad Poor Dad had me hooked from start to end.

1) Is there any book that has similar content as Think and Grow Rich, but has more modern words used that is highly recommended?

2) Also do you think Rich Dad Poor Dad has enough substance to be read everyday/ repeatedly?

    You might like to try Felix Dennis "How to Get Rich" It's a really good read and its from someone who was actually self made.

    And another interesting marketing note about the book "how to get rich" which was very successful, felix dennis produced a second edition, which was basically identical but with less words, which is a great example of repackaging your content.

    Which version of Think and Grow Rich do you have? Updated versions in terms of modern success examples and vocabulary would obviously be more "relatable" and engaging. Have you checked out the audio version by Earl Nightingale? AMAZING IMO! Let me know if I can ever help you in ANY way!

    Ive found a good one by Brian Tracy called Million Dollar Habits. I've just started reading it, but seems to be what I was looking. Any other suggestions are more than welcome though.

    Felix Dennis - "How To Get Rich" is a great one, as mentioned above...
    I have also gotten a TON of inspiration from the Steve Jobs biography

    Yes of course... The book is really a great business book.
    I even read Robert Kiyosaki's Guide to Investing and Retire Young, Retire Rich more than twice. Every business people should read Kiyosaki's rich dad series.

    The books have changed my life and given me inspiration to have my own Internet Company.
