Summary of others
Revisado: 01-05-23
This book is simply a compilation or summary of the high points from other great books regarding success. There is nothing novel here except the conversation points, which are arguably not earth shattering either. Spend your time reading the other books. They are more poignant, thought provoking, and have much lore depth.

When Jennifer Risher joined Microsoft in 1991, she met her husband and with him became an extra-lucky beneficiary of the dot-com boom. By their early 30s, they had tens of millions of dollars. Today, there are millions of people like her. Jennifer’s thought-provoking, personal story includes the voices of others in her demographic and explores the hidden impact of wealth on identity, relationships, and sense of place in the world.

We Need To Talk: a memoir about first world problems
Revisado: 02-23-21
7 hours of a women talking about how it’s hard to be rich.
I heard about this book on the Stacking Benjamin’s podcast and it sounded interesting. Unfortunately, it was not what I expected and reading it just made me angry for purchasing I and thus contributing to her wealth and thus contributing to more first world problems and thus a second edition of this book at some point :(

The Founding Fathers tried to protect us from the threat they knew, the tyranny that overcame ancient democracy. Today, our political order faces new threats, not unlike the totalitarianism of the twentieth century. We are no wiser than the Europeans who saw democracy yield to fascism, Nazism, or communism. Our one advantage is that we might learn from their experience.

On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons to bash Donald Trump
Revisado: 10-03-17
The first 16 chapters of the book aren't bad but leave you wishing there were more details on each historical example. The last chapters are a relentless flogging of the current president Donald Trump. There's not even an attempt at being objective.
The lesson on having a private life says that reading Hillary Clinton's emails and accepting their content is an act towards totalitarianism. The author says that people should not promote the content of the emails because the emails were private and obtained through illegal means. The fact that the content was actually true or not meant nothing in his eyes. At this point, I wanted to stop reading but forced myself to finish.
