review 1: The title of the book is something I tell my kids and I believe in wholeheartedly. Even though I picked it up initially just for that and the picture on the cover, I really enjoyed this book. It was very readable with huge nuggets of wisdom throughout. I have to say though, the book started to feel a little long about 3/4 of the way through, but then picked up nicely the last section in "the gentle art of giving back". I absolutely love love love what he and his wife decided to do with their foundation and how it definitely will have a "multiplier effect". Very inspiring.
review 2: I really enjoyed this book. However, I had a hard time relating to the author's struggles while he's sitting on billons of dollars. The message of pursuing your passion over mone... morey and careers needs to be stated, but try telling that to the single mother or homeless man on the street. Many people can't afford to take the risk of dreams and goals when trying to put bread on the table. Let's be realistic this idea of career freedom is a mere luxury for a limited few. less
