Summary
Phineas Taylor Barnum (July 5, 1810 – April 7, 1891) was an American showman, businessman, and entertainer, remembered for promoting celebrated hoaxes and for founding the circus that became the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus.(br />His successes may have made him the first "show business" millionaire. Although Barnum was also an author, publisher, philanthropist, and for some time a politician, he said of himself, "I am a showman by profession...and all the gilding shall make nothing else of me," and his personal aims were "to put money in his own coffers".

ME #2
I like this book as it provides insight into the thoughts of millionaires and gives examples of human failures then shows you things you can do better, plus I like the older story type.

It is nice that millionaires share their valuable insights with the public domain
Me
If I could wish for one thing, I would wish for a narrator that doesn't sound gay, melancholic or non-understandable.
