From Nothing to Millions

They started with nothing. Here is exactly how they built millions, and what you can copy starting today. A girl in rural Mississippi who wore dresses made from potato sacks. A father sleeping with his toddler son in a train-station bathroom while training for a job that paid almost nothing. A teenage immigrant who swept a grocery-store floor and later signed a $19 billion deal on the door of his old welfare office. Every one of them became a millionaire. Most became billionaires. From Nothing to Millions tells 13 true, carefully researched stories of self-made fortunes: Oprah Winfrey, Sara Blakely, J.K. Rowling, Daymond John, Howard Schultz, Chris Gardner, Jan Koum, the founders of Forever 21, Hamdi Ulukaya of Chobani, Ralph Lauren, Li Ka-shing, Sudanese telecom pioneer Mo Ibrahim, and John Paul DeJoria of Paul Mitchell and Patrón. Each chapter turns one story into a clear lesson and 3 to 5 concrete action steps you can take this week, whatever you earn. You will learn how to: • Start small with money you can afford to risk • Build a business on the side without quitting your job • Turn rejection into progress • Spend less than you earn and invest the gap • Move from earning a wage to owning what you build It ends with a simple 30-day plan to put it all into practice.
