The Best Deal I’ve done
Several of the partners here at Diamond Equity are currently going through this book. To properly “read” (prob better described “live”) this book takes 10 months. If you read it, you know.
I first read this in 2003 when I was selling cars. I remember suddenly hitting sales bonuses and higher closing % immediately as I began the habit of reading this book.
I bought a few used copies on Amazon-as I prefer Hard Cover books over soft & I love seeing someone else’s notes on the pages. Wabi-sabi
When this one arrived, I noticed it was old, but in great condition. I paid $11 plus shipping.
Upon closer inspection and with the help of Gemini AI, I discovered I am now the owner of a First Edition, First Print run copy of a book that has changed my life. Value, in this condition, is between $250-$400.
Let’s call it $300 value. I paid $11. ROI nearly 27X on my money. I have done no other deal anytime in my life with a 27X return on my money.
You think, “Ah, that’s small money Dan”
Here’s the real Return on Investment (ROI): “Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold” – Scroll VIII – Og Mandion. The habits of thought, belief, & action developed through this book is how I built the life I live today.
To accidentally own a First Print Run, First Edition of a book that has done so much for so many people, feels like a winning lottery ticket.
