Synopsis
In How Come That Idiot’s Rich and I’m Not? bestselling author
Robert Shemin reveals for the first time the inner-circle secrets of
the mega-wealthy. Have you ever wondered why some people attract wealth
while others stay financially trapped and in debt? The key is
wealth-friendly, upside-down thinking. Stick with all the old
moneymaking rules and stay broke. Break them and get rich. This is the
book that shows you how.
We’ve all read about the college kid
who made millions on a brainstorm, or the couple who made a fortune in
real estate, or the guy in his thirties who waved good-bye to his boss
and now lives on his investments. But until now, how they did it—the
rules they followed or flouted, the tricks they stumbled on—have
remained a mystery.
That’s about to change. Whether you’ve
been trying to get rich but haven’t quite made it yet, or just need the
confidence to dream big, this is the book for you. As experienced as
Shemin is at showing high-net-worth individuals how to get richer, his
real love is helping self-described “financial disasters” earn
millions. And he uses his own odds-defying story to illustrate the
outside-the-box thinking that gets the job done. Here, you’ll learn how
to:
• set only one powerful success goal—and make it a big one
• play while your money goes to work
• stop building someone else’s business and start building your own
• live and think like a millionaire while you’re becoming one
• use the power and “smarts” of other Rich Idiots to help you join the Rich Idiot Club
• add OPI (other people’s ideas), OPT (other people’s time), and OPE (other people’s experience) to do less and make more
• tap into timeless secrets that unlock the energy and spiritual power of money
Learn
which three assets you must own to become a Rich Idiot and how to
obtain them with little or no money of your own. Learn why Rich Idiots
outearn almost all the so-called wealth experts and how you can, too.
Above all, learn how doing just one thing a day will bring you to your
big goal.
In this book, the first to show you what it really
takes to achieve financial abundance, Shemin illustrates in a fun,
witty way how going against the grain is, in fact, the surest way to
gain. Spend just a few pages with Robert and his Rich Idiot friends and
you’ll be convinced that “if they could do it, I can do it.”
Editorial Reviews
“A breath of fresh air…Robert Shemin brings to this book a powerful
personal story that commands attention. He was the class cut-up, the
guy who never fit in exactly, an undiagnosed dyslexic who out of
survival instinct simply decided to make up his own rules — and, sure
enough, riches followed. Shemin’s key insight is that cultural
indoctrination robs most of us of the courage to blaze new paths — in
fact, breeds a ‘play it safe’ follow-the-leader mentality that can be a
financial death sentence. This book is loaded with
perspective-altering tips on how to make money outside the rat-race
paradigm and leverage the power of relationships in ways no one ever
talks about. If you take to heart the lessons in this book, you will
find the abundance you’re searching for.”
—Anthony Robbins, New York Times bestselling author of Awaken the Giant Within, Unlimited Power and Giant Steps
“This
book shows the average person not only how to get rich, but create,
connect and contribute greatly. Open the door to a better future now
by absorbing what Shemin has to say.”
—Mark Victor Hansen, co-creator, #1 New York Times best selling series Chicken Soup for the Soul® ; co-author, Cracking The Millionaire Code and The One-Minute Millionaire
“If
you’ve spent your life doing ‘all the right things’ but still feel like
you’re running in place financially, do yourself a favor and buy this
book.”
—T. Harv Eker, author of #1 New York Times Bestseller, Secrets of the Millionaire Mind
“Filled
with common sense . . . shows that a late-blooming entrepreneur can
strike it rich with sound business principles and a flair for taking
risks.”
—David Bach, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Automatic Millionare and Start Late, Finish Rich
