The Entrepreneur's Secret to Creating Wealth

Chris Hurn Β· 2012
76/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

Hurn fills a real gap: most entrepreneurship books ignore the wealth-building power of owning the building you work in, and the SBA 504 program is genuinely underused by small business owners who could benefit from it. Kirkus praised the clarity and nuts-and-bolts humility, and the endorsements from credible names add weight. The limitation is real β€” it is US-specific and some loan details have evolved since 2012 β€” but the core strategic argument holds.

✦ Penny’s Take β€” this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below.
