About this listen
A heartwarming series of stories and practical wisdom on entrepreneurship and wealth in the vein of Rich Dad, Poor Dad, written by a financially independent father for his ambitious son.
Soon after he opened his vineyard for business many years ago, the Wealthy Gardener noticed a puzzling fact. Everyone wanted money, but only a few people managed to accumulate it. The reason, he realized, is that most people focus on short-term gains instead of achieving lasting wealth.
As he grew old and aware of his dwindling time on this Earth, the Wealthy Gardener began to share his hard-earned wisdom with the financially troubled in his community, patiently mentoring those who asked for his practical advice on the ways of prosperity.
The parable of the Wealthy Gardener is far more than an admonishment to earn more or spend less; it is about timeless principles. As his lessons reveal, financial freedom is a means to power and control over our lives. Without money, we are subject to the demands and whims of others. With money, we are sheltered from the storm, and we can extend that shelter to our loved ones.
Poised to become an intimate financial classic, The Wealthy Gardener will inspire listeners to find their own noble purpose and relieve their money worries once and for all. No matter your income level, skillset, or unique economic disadvantages, the lessons in this book will show you the path forward. All you need is the will to work, the desire to succeed, and the motivation to learn.

What if charisma could be taught? For the first time, science and technology have taken charisma apart, figured it out and turned it into an applied science: In controlled laboratory experiments, researchers could raise or lower people's level of charisma as if they were turning a dial. What you'll find here is practical magic: unique knowledge, drawn from a variety of sciences, revealing what charisma really is and how it works. You'll get both the insights and the techniques you need to apply this knowledge. The world will become your lab, and every person you meet, a chance to experiment.

This book was amazing
This was one of the best audiobooks I've heard in a long time. The performance was amazing and the message was one of the best I've heard on books acquiring wealth. I am going to buy this book for both my kids in their 20s because every young person should read this book take it to heart. This book will increase anyone's financial intelligence by a factor of 10.
Congrats to Mr. Soforic on an amazing book and thanks Dennis for a wonderful performance.

Great life lessons
My only qualm is suggesting leverage in a book meant for laypeople, and dollar cost averaging without going into ideal time horizons. One would hope this book is a stepping stone to learning more, and not the only resource someone might choose.

Top finance parable.
I’ve read a number of parables on self improvement and finance. This is the the best so far. Highly recommend. I am a 30 year old getting into the summer of my financial life and this came at the perfect time. .

I found this book to have lots of mindful recommendations and suggestions. Kind of made me think about what I’m doing for myself and my financial legacy. It’s definitely worth a listen.

Think and Grow Rich meets Richest Man in Babylon
A fantastic fictional story combined with a real life story of his life. The story feels like Think and Grow Rich lived out.
I like how the focus was more on developing a human to achieve your goals. Versus specific technical details of wealth building.
