Description
At 30, Duncan Bannatyne had no money and was enjoying life on the beaches of Jersey. He saw a story of someone who had made himself a millionaire, and decided to do the same himself. Five years later he had done it, and now he is worth £168 million. In this remarkable book, Bannatyne relives his colourful path to riches, explaining how anyone could take the same route as he did - if they really want to. In the book, we see how he started out as an ice cream salesman, and built up that show more business, before moving on to other areas. Hugely articulate, and with numerous fascinating and revealing stories to tell, this is an autobiography and a business book unlike any other - but then Bannatyne isn't like any other businessman, either. show lessTags

Any avid fan of ‘Dragons Den’ will be very familiar with Duncan Bannatyne and his apparent wealth. What they may not be so familiar with is his incredible story of how he became so very wealthy. His story begins by describing his tough and under privileged life in a Glasgow tenement. He then goes on to describe how he earned money to buy the things he wanted and tells of his time in the show more Royal Navy. The greatest part is his turning point when at 30 he decided he wanted to make himself a millionaire and five years later achieved it and is now worth 168 million.
Duncan Bannatyne tells his story beautifully and articulately and leaves nothing out of his colourful and exciting life, from the business aspects to the more personal parts of his life. Listening to this book will not necessarily turn you into a millionaire, but it will certainly give you the determination and drive you need if you wish to change your life. In this book he tells how anyone can get to where he is today which makes the listener feel incredibly motivated.
Anyone Can Do It works incredibly well in an audio-book format. You almost feel as though you are listening to your own personal motivational speaker. Duncan Bannatyne does not do the narration himself which is a shame as it is always interesting to hear the author tell their own story, however, David Rintoul does a fantastic job to a point were you almost feel as though you are listening to Duncan Bannatyne himself. I highly recommend this audio-book as a great addition to any collection. show less
