À propos de cet audio

From bestselling author of The $100 Startup and Side Hustle comes Chris Guillebeau's engaging story about the power you have to create your own financial destiny.

Like financial classics The Latte Factor and The Richest Man in Babylon, The Money Tree uses a compelling story with captivating characters to share its core insight: you are never at the mercy of fortune as long as you have an appetite for hard work and a willingness to step outside your comfort zone.

Jake Aarons is in trouble. He's being evicted from his apartment in less than 30 days, the bill for his $50,000 in overdue student loans is almost due, and the digital marketing agency he works at just implemented a new military-style grading system that might cost him his job. To top it off, Jake's new relationship with Maya was going so well... but with everything else falling down around him, he might lose her, too.

In search of answers, Jake reluctantly attends a weekly group meeting at the invitation of a coworker. Everyone in the group is trying to create a lucrative side hustle with one key requirement: they can only spend up to $500 before earning a profit. Over the course of several weeks, Jake undertakes a series of challenges, first learning how to make $1,000 in a single weekend, and ultimately how to discover the untapped skills he needs to take control of his finances--and his life.

Les plus pertinents

I’ve read most of Chris Gillebeau’s books and I have never been disappointed. His first book, the art of non-conformity” truly changed my life and way of living. I became a digital nomad, quit my corporate job and took the leap to entrepreneurship.

The money tree was an interesting new storytelling approach he has taken to hone in many of the lessons he teaches in his side hustle and $100 startup book. I particularly liked the comparison he demonstrates between building a traditional tech start up vs his recommended way of starting small. This comparison has been on my mind for some time now and this book gave me a clearer perspective.

Thank you Chris for all your work and I hope we continue to read new work from you.
