What a load of rubbish

Of the books I'm familiar with, there isn't really anything good here, which puts the rest into doubt for me

This seems like MBA shithead's first reading list to me

Shout out to Rich Dad Poor Dad which has never made anyone Roch in the history of its printing.

I think you mean, "Never made anyone who bought it rich". Author made out like a bandit lol.

Excellent point - the fact that he is still cashing in on a (bad) book written in the 90's is absolutely wacky

All of that productivity and communication and they still used a bedsheet as the background...

[-] TechNerdWizard42@lemmy.world 5 points 4 days ago

Not even fitted properly.

Cool guide on how to have people avoid you at parties.

The only books there that have any real value are the philosophy books from authors who have been dead over a century. And even then you shouldn't use their ideas whole cloth.

How maximize productivity and get rich at work:

  1. Steal someone else's labor
  2. That's literally it!
  3. Dont worry, you can call it other things: hiring a PA to do 90% of your work for half your pay, laying off workers for AI/contractors, quietly pushing off team projects entirely onto the team, reading "productivity" books in your office all day while interns take calls, just get creative about not doing any work!

Master philosophy?

Can't see 'The Art Of The Deal' there ;-)

[-] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Can we have some more jpeg on that one? I could almost read some of the titles.

The Stranger is good as an audio book, easy immersive listen

Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.
