Do you have a burning passion to make a lot of money in business? Are you ready to turbocharge your chances of professional and personal success?

During his more than four decades as a CEO and serial entrepreneur, Brad Jacobs has created seven flagship companies across different industries, delivering tens of billions of dollars of value to shareholders. In How to Make a Few Billion Dollars, Jacobs defines the mindset that drives his remarkable success in corporate America—and distills a lifetime of business brilliance into a tactical road map.

From provocative recommendations for “rearranging your brain”—an essential prerequisite to accomplishing enormous goals—to practical advice for dealing with colleagues, Jacobs will have you rethinking what it means to win big. He explains why it’s critical to spot key trends and capitalize on them, including the biggest trend of all—the rapid evolution of technology relative to human development.

And, he shares his techniques for:

• Turning a healthy fear of failure to your advantage.

• Achieving lots of high-quality M&A without imploding.

• Building an outrageously talented team.

• Catalyzing electric meetings.

• Transforming a company into a superorganism that kills the competition.

How to Make a Few Billion Dollars is an inside look at how this entrepreneurial titan leads with humility, compassion, and accountability, while running hard toward the American Dream. If your personal dream is to create wealth through free markets or to triumph in sports, the arts, politics, philanthropy, or any other part of your life, this book will help you make that a reality.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the background of Brad Jacob’s’ ventures, along with the deep thought processes Brad utilizes. It’s interesting and meaningful to experience each venture and what went into each. I especially enjoyed learning new ways to approach mindfulness and going ‘all in’ when setting and achieving goals. Excited for future published works from Brad!

Excellent and Insightful

Well written and performed by Brad. I’m happy he took the time and energy to share his stories. M&As are definitely the easiest way to make billions. Still, many drastically fail so credit to him.

Still, I wear hoping to get more ground breaking ideas and knowledge out of this. Maybe because I’m seeing acquisitions on my current business so my expectations are high.

Honest and useful to some extent

It’s an unfair advantage building a business and having resources like this. From m&a, to people, to meetings. Brad shares it all. And it’s pure gold.

I found How to Make a Few Billion Dollars exceptionally enlightening. The author’s insights are authentic, precise, and delivered in an affirmative, high-level manner. The chapter outline is concise and clear, with short, impactful chapters that make the book easy to digest. The storytelling is exceptionally compelling and visual—I found myself re-listening to expand my own vision and storytelling ability. It’s very well put together, with the added bonus of being read by the author himself. This is a high-quality work that I’ll continue to reference, and I’ve already shared it with my colleagues and team. It’s truly expanded my vision on what it takes to acquire $100 million.

Think big, take care of your team, lead the industry with technology and go all in.

Lots of good tips for any entrepreneur

Brad Jacobs is an amazing founder and the title is what drew me in as a startup founder and CEO.

Unfortunately the book is dry and lacks anything groundbreaking or novel.

Good advice and learnings, just not unique, unless you care to hear his belief that gives humans a 50/50 shot of surviving this century vs merging w robots to create a new species.

Meh

Overall I’m glad I listened to this book. But it’s not a “must read” and it definitely seems like it was a bit thrown together instead of carefully written and polished. If you need a decent book to read, it’s worth giving this a once-through.

Some great content in here, could use more refinement.

There are so many provocative elements to this book. It includes great perspective from business and grounds concepts in the human existence. There is also a smart integration of several topic areas which I found insightful.

The author consistently integrates making money and the natural human experience

Brad Jacobs is unlike most. Very few CEOs at his level willing to share actionable info like what's in this book. It's a terrific success story

Informative and insightful

I enjoyed this audiobook. It provides practical tips on running different parts of a business and is written in a very accessible way.

I found his take on the post integration process in M&A most insightful, although a bit short. He is the authority on M&A integration having been massively successful with multiple roll ups (even though most roll ups fail because they are so hard to integrate in practice).

The production was decent too. The author could easily have another career as a voice actor.

Finally, just be aware that this is a "how to" book not a biography. The author does sprinkle personal and professional anecdotes which are relevant to his advice but don't expect a biography.
