Rich By 22: How To Achieve Business Success At An Early Age by Tom Corson-Knowles is a good book from which you'll definitely benefit. It is well constructed and offers sound advice on everything you need to be aware of in order to become a rich person. This is what I love the most and I believe the author has done a great job here. Most of the time you can find tactics and tips on getting rich by applying what a book has to teach, but this one is different. You won't see concrete methods to achieve anything but only a plethora of chapters with a general idea you must understand, learn and put to work:The difference between a poor or struggling person and a rich one is just an appropiate mindset and habits. Embrace this and you'll see changes right away.If you think this is too much simple, I would say you it's not. You need a lot of willpower to change your life in the blink of an eye but fortunately it will be easier if you have solid guidance like the one this book provides. While I would love to give it 5 stars, I can not forget about some problems you should be aware of:1) I found some typos and an almost unreadable graph image. Hopefully, the author will correct it so it shouldn't be a big deal. But at the moment of this review, it is something you should know.2) There are too many quotes from other famous rich men and entrepeneurs. Sometimes I felt I was reading a summary of these people's best work and this is something the author should change a bit. However, I loved the parts where he teaches important ideas under his own experience. Considering his young age, it is natural not to have too many experiences but I can tell you that if he decides to write a new version in 10 years, it will be an excellent book. He clearly knows what he's doing and you definitely can get rich by 22 if you follow his advice. Just remember, it's all up to you!All in all, I recommend buying this book. Especially if you are new to the field.
