Unlike most business books, How to Get Rich doesn't sugarcoat the sacrifices, the ego, or the sheer obsession required to build wealth.

The late Felix Dennis—founder of Maxim magazine was one of Britain's richest self-made men. As he wrote How to Get Rich, he sat on a goldmine of hard-won lessons. He explains how wealth is really made and why most people will never do what it takes.

Joining me to unpack this unfiltered playbook is Alex Bodini, CEO and co-founder of Spin Group. Alex has built a global social media agency of 80+ people while launching multiple ventures like Acid Running and Janji Europe. For Alex, it’s never been about perfection but about momentum, learning, and loving the ride.
