The 48 Laws of the Money in the Middle

Two people do the same hour of work. One walks away with pennies, the other with a fortune. The only difference is the floor they chose to stand on. This is the book that teaches you to see the staircase - and climb it.

The world is a building.
Everybody lives on a floor.

Down in the basement are the people who sell the only thing they own - their hands and their hours. Up in the penthouse are the people who make nothing with their hands at all. They own the doorways everyone else’s money has to pass through. And in between, on every floor, stand the middlemen - the ones who don’t make the thing and don’t buy the thing, but take a slice of everything that walks past.

1
Hand

You do the work. You make the thing. You get paid last and least.

2
Mouth

You take a slice as the money passes through your spot.

3
Door

You own the place everyone else's money has to walk through.

The whole game is learning to move from the hand, to the mouth, to the door.

THE EDGE

What I Learned About Money After I Put The Tools Down

Two firms, same town, same prices. Ten years later one owner is a millionaire and the other is still chasing invoices.

The difference is not effort and it is not luck. It is a set of things one of them knew. Twenty four chapters on how money actually moves through a building business - the float, the payment law, where the work is going, and how to win it without being the cheapest. Made to be listened to, not read.

Reviews.

The real ones, where they belong.

There is no wall of quotes on this page, because I am not going to write one myself. The book came out this week. The only reviews that count are the ones readers leave on the listing, and right now there are barely any.

If it changed where you think you should be standing, go and say so. It is the one thing that decides whether the next person ever finds it.
