Book Summary: The Millionaire Fastlane, by MJ DeMarco
The best business book of all time.
The Millionaire Fastlane is one of the three best business books of all time (along with Peter Thiel’s Zero to One and Unscripted, by the same author.)
This book had such an impact on me that I quit the management consultant interview process I was in to become an entrepreneur instead. It also got me to start my first app (which failed).

This summary is long, so I broke it into three parts.
- One Idea to Retain
- Executive Summary
