Finance ✦ Penny’s Take
How Rich People Think
Steve Siebold · 2019
67/100
👎 Skip It
Siebold's 1,200-interview research base gives the book a more grounded claim to authority than most wealth-mindset titles, and the bite-sized chapter format makes it easy to read in short bursts. But the provocative framing that treats middle-class thinking as the primary barrier to wealth sidesteps structural and systemic realities, and the 100-chapter contrast format grows repetitive. Worth skimming for its best insights; harder to justify reading cover-to-cover.
