About this listen
Some extraordinary and unexpected factors are revealed in Taylor's fascinating new book that explains why some people become billionaires. Despite the fact that the sample of 17 self-made billionaires come from disparate backgrounds, work in different industries, have very different personalities, and superficially appear to have different upbringings, they have one important thing in common: they are all outsiders. Their edge comes from being different and that difference is the well-spring of their creativity and wealth. This combined with direction, drive and trading intelligence has powered them to extreme wealth.

If you’ve listened to The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, How to Win Friends and Influence People, and the hundreds of other guides to wealth creation and you still aren’t rich, maybe this audiobook is for you. Performed by Adrian Mulraney in a voice that sounds more professorial than entrepreneurial, Brent D. Taylor’s The Outsider’s Edge focuses on 17 well-known billionaires and identifies their "outsider" statuses as a major factor in their successes. Biographies of Taylor’s examples - from Bill Gates to Oprah Winfrey - are rehashed and anecdotes meant to inspire are deployed. For those seeking to bolster creativity, see Taylor’s The Creative Edge. For military personnel looking to achieve greatness, Taylor is now at work on a similar tome for you.
