Reallionaire: Nine Steps to Becoming Rich from the Inside Out
Reallionaire tells Farrah’s extraordinary and touching story. When he was just six, Farrah’s mother became seriously ill, prompting his decision to provide for this family, and he spent the first $50 he ever made taking them for a real sit-down dinner. At the age of eight, he founded his first business club. By fourteen, with a million dollars in his pocket, Farrah was well on his way to business success.
Each stage of Farrah’s progress is marked by one of the principles of success he learned along the way, creating not just an extraordinary story but also a step-by-step primer for others to create success in their own lives with honor; charity and compassion.
In the tradition of great motivators and leaders, this is both an instructional book and a story to inspire others to live life to the fullest. And readers don’t have to be interested in business to enjoy it. In fact, Farrah is a role model for everyone.

Inappropriately titled
While somewhat inspirational, this is more of a story, not a "how to" book unless you have the type of personality that is comfortable with "cold calling" and have a lot of existing personal connections along with a gimmick. If you are age 18 and under and can sell yourself as "youngest" at something or other then this may work for you. If you are over 30 looking to get into a different career then all of the avenues this person used to become rich may not be open to you.
Excellent book
Loved the book! Great insight into the pursuit of happiness versus the pursuit of riches. Great advice for kid and teenagers to help them realize that you can become wealthy without giving up your principles.
Five Stars
This was a great book to read!!
Million and one assistance
The PR on this book is that you will find an inspiring story for all. I did not find this to be true nor autobiographical, a story hopefully will be told in middle-age with more candor. Knowing the general sketch to success for this charming, winning gotta-be, the narrative was consistently pushed by cliche and quotations, streamlined to tell the rags-to-riches part without the nuts and bolts. The schmoozing, name-dropping, never-ending event-scheduling, expose a darker tale of mere marketing prowess and networking skills. Those who accept the packaging from childhood into a shelf commodity for acquisition, will see something here. Until now, America was about individuality; this book emphasizes "connections" over personal efforts. Honestly, Farrah Gray made it with supportive parenting,strong work ethics and influence. In the real world, you can have far more talent than Farrah Gray and go nowhere with just one or two run-ins. If you have similar products to Farrah's, food ideas etc., you can find inspiration, but consistently the nuts and bolts of achievement get lost in digressive medical setbacks. The rest of us cannot unload the obstacles to our "success" like co-workers, with Jack Welch-unconcern, and move on and upward.Throughout, Mr. Gray does say he is not entirely a self-made man. He deserves marks for that.
Good one
Nice book well received
Unhappy
I got my book with a damaged cover and frayed pages. Not at all happy about this because I wanted this for my library.
Every young person, or potential entrepreneur should read this ...

He makes some funny anecdotes but its a real slow read although his points are relevant and, ideally, motivating
Incredible book!
One of the best self improvement books ever written. Insightful and thought-provoking.
