Would you like to become rich? Stephen Hawley Martin, an entrepreneur who founded and sold two businesses, explains in this book how anyone capable of getting and holding a job can become incredibly wealthy by following one of several paths he sets out. One path is to start a business, grow a business, and sell a business. Alternatives to that direction include keeping a day job and building a fortune by starting and running a business on the side, or by investing in real estate or other passive income generators. Targeted for those under the age of 40 who possess an entrepreneurial spirit, anyone seeking financial independence who reads this book will gain valuable insights about growing his or her net worth to a point the individual will be able to spend each day in his or her own way. Martin asks, "Why complain about the richest one percent? Why not become one of them, instead?" He writes that anyone living in America today can become comfortably well off—even very, very rich—by following certain steps, provided the individual does not wait too long in life to begin. This is true whether a person starts out with a mindset of scarcity or with one of abundance. The right mindset—a winner's attitude—is, however, vitally important, which is why he devotes an entire chapter to personal transformation and self-improvement techniques anyone can use to create the mindset needed to attract riches. He argues that if you think of yourself as rich—that you deserve to be rich because it is your birthright—with a sufficient amount of effort, you will become rich.
