The Bathrobe Millionaire: Confessions of an Unemployable Job-Hopper Who Made a Fortune without Work, Risk, or Khakis
[Paperback] Jason Yelowitz (Author) 5/10/2011Book Description
The role of instant millionaire is an elusive status often written and fantasized about but rarely achieved. In The Bathrobe Millionaire, author Jason Yelowitz tells his personal story of how he got rich overnight and realized his dream of swapping the corporate life for one of financial and emotional freedom.Peppered with humor, this memoir provides insights into the hazards and rewards of start-up businesses. Yelowitz shares his mistakes as an entrepreneur and the lessons learned, and he reveals his secret to financial success.
He dispenses counterintuitive advice about what it takes to earn a lot of money and demonstrates these essential points:
• You shouldn't fall in love with your own business idea.
• Work and pay don't need to be derived from the same activity.
• It's best not to tell people about the business you're starting.
• Every start-up business should have a "stop loss."
• It's better to start a business with less money rather than more.
• The concept of "quit early, quit often" makes sense.
• You should start a business alone, even if you need a partner.
In The Bathrobe Millionaire, Yelowitz proves that the laws of business sometimes defy gravity.Product Details

ISBN-13: 978-1462013593You actually don't need to be an aspiring millionaire, or even somebody who is "looking for the secret" of how to succeed financially to enjoy this book and gain valuable insight into important life lessons. This well written, fun-to-read autobiography tells the story of how a motivated, young man remained focused on a goal, but took a different approach to blaze an atypical, but very admirable and interesting path to success in the modern world.
In spite of a good education, his success didn't come from information he learned in classes or reading books. The author shares his personal experiences and insights about how he confronted and dealt with adversity, how he found opportunities where others might have not have seen them, and how he applied street smarts and instinct to solve problems and create opportunity.
What is revealed is that there is no "secret," and though he became wealthy relatively quickly, it wasn't easy. The fact that his medium of success is the internet makes the story very relevant and appealing to readers of all ages and places in life: from those who are seasoned business people (perhaps stuck in the corporate world) to aspiring entrepreneurs who want to learn how thinking "outside the box" actually happens.
