The White Tiger - Aravind Adiga

Balram Halwai, nicknamed the "White Tiger" for his out-standard intelligence, is determined to conquer India and make "his place in the sun". Using every trick in the book, he stops at nothing to extricate himself from poverty and violence. From odd jobs to menial labor, the narrator recounts, among other things, his childhood in a village controlled by big landowners, his arrival in the city where he ends up working for the son of one of these bigwigs, and his rise in the Silicone Valley of India.

The White Tiger is Aravind Adiga's 2008 Booker Prize-winning debut novel.

Rich Father, Poor Father - Robert T. Kiyosaki

The author's personal story, Père riche père pauvre features two fathers: one overeducated, the other with none. Both are strikingly different personalities. At the end of his life, the father with all his degrees finds no financial success, and even leaves a few debts, while the father with none at all has spent his life wondering how to afford things he could never theoretically afford.

Through this story, Robert Kiyosaki, who became a successful investor and entrepreneur, conveys a message of making the best use of one's mind and time to create one's own wealth. You have to learn to seize opportunities, find solutions and make your money work for you, rather than being a slave to it.


A book from which one inevitably emerges changed and resolved not to work for money, but let your money work for you.


Think and Grow Rich - Napoleon Hill

Through thirteen universal principles that boost our self-confidence, the author demonstrates how our thoughts and beliefs can change the course of our lives and make us a positive person, capable of achieving the goals we set ourselves, and generating lots of money by implementing them.

The fruit of over twenty years' research into richness and talent, this book is the gift to give to anyone who has a project and wants to make it a reality!

Through this book, the author invites us to reflect on our own truth, so that everyone can make their own contribution and build the society they really want.

An invitation to adopt a radical new vision on the design and management of start-ups.

Miracle Morning - Hal Elrod

Author of two bestsellers, including Marathon morning, written in 2022, Hal Elrod shares the method that helped him get back on track and near the top: get up early!
