Reallionaire: Nine Steps to Becoming Rich from the Inside Out

A remarkable teenager who went from public assistance to a million dollar net worth shares his story and offers 9 key principles to success.

Farrah Gray is no ordinary teenager. He wears a suit and tie; he has an office on Wall Street and another one in Los Angeles . . . and he sold his first business at the age of 14 for more than a million dollars. He invested that money in a partnership with Inner City Broadcasting, one of the most prominent African-American owned businesses in the country, and now is heading the relaunch of their signature magazine, InnerCity. According to People magazine, Farrah is the only African-American teenager to rise from public assistance to a business mogul without being in entertainment or having a family connection.

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?just think of him as a Les Brown for the 21st century.  more

a must read

This book should be a reading assignment in every school. More than that it should be a go out and do assignment. but sad to say our schools don't think that way. Students only study to pass a test not to operate in the real world.

Inspiring, motivating, must share book

Dr. Gray's book is both inspirational and motivating. After reading Dr. Gray's book, I find myself organizing a neighborhood business to help the neighborhood youth (and adults). I am scheduled to speak to the local parents' council for the public schools on role models and intend to use Dr....

building blocks to success

What were you doing when you were 19 years old? That awkward in-between time when you're no longer a child, but not quite an adult. As a 19 year old, I was a student at Penn State University who couldn't quite organize myself to get to my first class on time. Mind you, this first class didn't...

Visionaire - to follow your vision to become a millionaire (at any age) - now that's real. Farrah is an inspiration and I can directly relate to the story.

Waste of Money!

Say this kid speak at a Conference. He is a nice guy and appears to be pretty well grounded.However, this book stinks. I bought it thinking I could share it with the youth group I'm involved with. Thought it may be interesting. The book is a major bore. A Sleepeer. Picked it up several time...

Reallionaire

OK, I'm not tryin' to hate but it seems that if you are not a cute, very ambitious 8-year old who happens upon a mentor with the desire and the resources to help you out, then this book is just a heart-warming, rags-to-riches story, period. This is more of a "how it happened to me" than a "how...

Reallionaire

I purchased this book for my son after seeing Farrah on TV a while back. He was very impressive during the interview. I bought the book in hopes that my son who was 11 at the time would actually read it. To my surprise, he blew threw it and told me that it was his favorite book. With that...

Business Savvy

I was truly inspired by this young man. I was intrigued, as my youngest son displays a lot of these attributes and has been telling me since age 5 or 6 that he's going to be rich. After reading this young mans story I just had to pass it along to my son, just to remind him that his goals and...

Buy this book for a young person you know with potential.

The tagline to this book is "The essential lessons that took me from public assistance to a millionaire"... and wait for it "by the age of 14". This book was smooth and easy to read - I didn't find I took away that many specific lessons, more just a feeling for a beautiful heart warming story...

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...
