The Instant Millionaire

A Tale of Wisdom and Wealth

By: Mark Fisher

Narrated by: Marc Allen

Do those who succeed work harder than those who only dream about success? Are they smarter, luckier, more ruthless? And does financial success bring happiness? These perennial questions are perhaps more timely than ever. The Instant Millionaire answers them in the unforgettable voice of a very wise and wealthy old man. Known as the “Instant Millionaire” because he grasped the true secret of making a fortune overnight, this sage mentors a young man with frustrated dreams and nine-to-five disappointments. In practical, ready-to-implement lessons, he reveals the ideas and actions that can give anyone the mentality of a millionaire. This simple yet powerful mental shift paves the way not only for financial success but also for profound personal fulfillment and well-being.

Critic reviews

"Astounding...a simple, compelling book that raises a series of powerful questions." (Success Magazine)

Amazing book for spiritual, business or personal growth!

Amazing book for spiritual, business or personal growth! There are so many nuggets in this book in all areas mentioned above. I’m so excited for my new season & this book was right on time. Changing your mindset & believing in yourself & your dreams is so important! As a person thinks, so is he/she!

excellent very inspiring

get me wanting to hear more the narrator was fantastic I am glad that I finished the book I'm so inspired

Enjoyed overall, some criticism

I enjoyed the positive thinking aspect of the book and understand the general sentiment, however I can't help but wonder how this applies if one occupies a less privileged identity. Can this really be applied to those who are not white, straight cis males?

Surely it overlooks societal limitations that come into play like race, gender, etc. It feels reductive in this way, suggesting that if one experiences discrimination or lives in an oppressive system that this could all be changed by more positive thinking and asking for help? I'm trying to take in the overall message of the book, but notice this question keeps popping up in my head.

Great insights

If I had rated this after the first listen I probably would have given it 3 stars, but when I was driving and was going to listen to a book my 10 year old daughter always wanted "Instant Millionaire" So after about the 5th listen on a road trip "I heard it!" We have both since listened to it again a number or times.

Great book - short and sweet

Narrator seemed a bit tired and raspy, but the book was an excellent reminder on some key aspects of building wealth. Thoroughly enjoyed and wouldn recommend.

Follow similar format as Richest Man in Babylon and The Greatest Salesman in The World. So if you liked those, you'll like this book.
