You don’t need to be university educated, have money, be creative, or even have an idea to get rich. You just need to be willing to break the rules.
How to be a Capitalist Without Any Capital will teach you how to be a modern opportunist – investor, entrepreneur, or side hustler – by breaking these four golden rules of the old guard:
1. Focus on one skill: Wrong. Don’t cultivate one great skill to get ahead. In today’s business world, success goes to the multitaskers.
2. Be unique: Wrong. The way to get rich is not by launching a new idea but by aggressively copying others and then adding your own twist.
3. Focus on one goal: Wrong. Focus instead on creating a system to produce the outcome you want, not just once, but over and over again.
4. Appeal to the masses: Wrong. The masses are broke ($4k average net worth in America?). Let others cut a trail through the jungle so you can peacefully walk in and capitalize on their hard work.
By rejecting these defunct rules and following Nathan Latka’s unconventional path, you can copy other people’s ideas shamelessly, bootstrap a start-up with almost no funding, invest in small local businesses for huge payoffs, and reap all the benefits.
