About this listen

The much-anticipated memoir of Dan Bilzerian is almost here! Dan takes listeners on a wild ride, from his anything-but-normal childhood, to the insanity that has followed him on his journey to becoming one of the most famous people in the world. Hear about his upbringing, military service, gambling, guns and other toys, and about girls. Lots of girls. And for the first time, Dan talks openly about how he was able to live unapologetically live his dreams using a simple method that he calls "The Setup".

The Setup is jam-packed with crazy stories and incredible adventures that bring listeners into the world of Dan Bilzerian.

What a GANGSTER 0-HERO

There’s so much beneath the surface to Dan Bilzerian. This book was excellent, and really shows where he came from. It was pretty profound that David Goggins started off the book. Pretty cool that these guys have quite a bit in common although there starts in life or polar opposites must read for every man! And after you’re done, reading his book, check out my book, be your best by Frank Kirschner

What a life!

At times the subject matter can and will come across as immature but it is what it is. The book is filled with many of Dans interesting life stories and perspectives. He made all of his childhood dreams come true only to realize that those fantasies are not nearly as important as his memories he made along the way.

P.S Rest in Peace Sam. He was one of the most interesting and hilarious people in this book.

Thanks Dan for putting your life lessons in this book.

Great story but listen with caution

Great, unapologetic narration of Dan's life story and what led him to become who he is today. Kids, listen to this book with caution and don't try to imitate what you hear in this book as tempting as it may sound, not everyone is Dan Bilzerian. I think it's important you get to know yourself and who you really are beforehand.

Respect to Dan for doing what he wanted and not following the societal dogmas.

Overall a fun listen.

Didn’t learn that much from the book but appreciate the honesty of dan, this is his life in a book not a read and learn one

I loved dan’s honesty, crazy stories and lifestyle he has. He might seem like a guy who got lucky and became rich but he’s actually a tough guy who loves to conquer challenges and prove his haters wrong. He’s a very smart guy, the only thing that kept bothering me was dan not giving a single f to all the girls who had boyfriends or were married and he admitted by having sex, he ruined their relationship! Well dan, if you’re reading this, that’s not cool dude, some guys kill themselves over someone they love, it might be a half an hour thing for you buddy but you should have known the bro code in my opinion.

Poison for a vulnerable generation

I can't believe the reviews are so positive. This story is has zero substance whatsoever. This book is simply an adaptation of Dan's instagram feed, a rotation of sex and money stories that is incredibly tone-deaf and lacks any sort of real advice.

My morbid curiosity led me here. I stuck it out till the end, waiting for the point. I wish I could have those hours back.

Re-assess your relationship with anybody that recommends this book to you because they probably follow Andrew Tate too.

The narrator probably needed to shower immediately after recording sessions, but he was good at his job.

GARBAGE OVERALL
