About the author
Todd Havens
8 books8 followersAs a debt-free, cancer-free dad, Todd Havens loves talking and writing about money — because for years and years (and years) he was the poorest guy in any room. Who else but the broke guy would dream of one day having a zero net worth and feel like a financial genius? Insanity.
No one ever taught him everything they knew about money, so he did it himself — studying the financial habits and psychology of the world's most successful millionaires and billionaires until he became a first-generation millionaire, too. Now it's his mission to help others learn to Think Wealthy and transform their financial lives.
By day, Todd is a brand and marketing executive in Hollywood and serves on the board of a nonprofit dedicated to celebrating and preserving the very best in digital movie marketing. He loves having the big conversations in life with friends because, as he often says in quoting Socrates (or was it Madonna?), an unexamined life is not worth living.

Todd is hella funny!
This book was a pleasure to learn from. I dont know what Todd Havens voice sounds like, but I could hear it in my head alright. Somehow these books produce micro gradual changes in you, the fun delivery makes things easier to grasp and retain. I cant wait to start step 3. Oh btw, it really scared the heck out of me when he started talking about retirement. I dont remember ever really thinking deeply about that and now I can’t stop thinking about it and working on fixing my future.

just like book #1 in this series
Good information. I feel like my way in thinking was completely shifted in book 1. Now that I have expanded my horizons, book 2 just pieces together the parts. I love that in reading these books, it’s giving me more nuggets to go research. From people names, stories and books Todd recommends. Im on my way to book #3, I’m excited for this next one!

so
I read the first book and was excited to read the second one but I swear over half the book was him repeating himself.
A lot of it was blah blah to me and maybe or two sections was new. It might be me but I felt he repeated a lot from the first book.

More Nuggets to Wealth
Book 2 of this series was packed with more wealth information and was a great follow up to book one. I could have done without the repeated introduction from book one but after that the nuggets kept flowing. On to book 3, thank you!

Great read!!!
Simple and approachable writing style. Couldn't out it down once I began. Onto the book 3. Looking forward to what he shares next.

I think the author could have made his point in a paragraph or two. The initial buildup was not necessary or helpful.
