Official Review: The Billionaires’ Handbook

Post by **Sanju Lali** » 21 Oct 2019, 15:29

A very nice insight about how the rich create a list of rules themselves to keep getting richer is nicely depicted in the book The Billionaires' Handbook: A User's Guide to Wealth and Power by Andrew Stevenson. The lovely spoof of the 1% super rich in this book makes it quite interesting.

Surely there's a consistence strategy that the rich apply to maintain the gap between them and the poor. That's why I believe to make it on the top, you have to fight for your place without trusting anyone. Because no one wants to see you there, though some may come in sheep clothing. Thanks for the informative good review.

It's a very nice review. I usually don't read books like this, but your review convinced me to give it a try.

Maybe I should stop "burying my head in the sand and ignoring politics", and read this book even though I'm not american and am far from understanding what it means to be one. The book sounds intriguing.

Good review. I would love to see what the author has to say about the steps on becoming a billionaire. I also like a read with some humor. Ill check it out the only thing that can happen is that I don’t become a billionaire and have a good read.

Not really that interesting, at least I didn't think it was based off the first few pages.

I don't like non-fiction books that are promising helping you to became rich or giving advances in areas that are requiring individual, personal approach in each case. Anyway, thanks for giving it free and congratulations with BOTD!

I love that the issues the author has talked about are real and that they cannot be ignored. It is a non-fiction business guide to the economic market written so that anyone can comprehend it.

A funny or humorous take on a serious matter is a brief respite from books that tackle mystery, murder or fantasy. I always welcome stories that make me chuckle or laugh out loud once in a while. The plot of this novel is intriguing and exciting, political it may be or about greed and power. Congrats!

This sounds like a relaxing book to read if you don’t mind the politics. Thanks for your review!

This is a good material for business persons and aspirants to learn about the economic system and understand how it works.

I love your reviews because they are always very in depth and expose every facet of the book. I like your analogy of the book being like Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy meets Monty Python. I can easily picture myself laughing, but also being a little concerned. I also like that the narrator Andrew uses sarcasm and wit to make his point. His style of comedy reminds me of The Daily Show.
