About the Book
Vince Crow had heard somewhere that you could trade a piece of useless junk on the internet and within a year of swapping it for better and better things you could get cool stuff. Crow decided that he himself was going to start off as that piece of tat, jump from one job to the next; indeed he would trade one lifestyle for a new one, until he was finally a success. Every three months he would have to trade-up for an entirely new life – new job, new girl, new wheels, new pad, new threads – until he reached the top.
The plan of comparing himself to a used item traded over the internet was of course marginally flawed, as there is a human factor to all of this which he’d over-looked. Besides, success isn’t just about work. It’s about the car, the clothes, the house, and getting the girl, so changing all of that with every new trade upwards is a lot more difficult than swapping an old stereo in the classifieds. Crow quickly learns what the price of success really is. An education he would never have got if he had gone to college.

always looking for a motivational book .thanks for sharing.
these past few book review I don't really have an Idea about the existence of the book.. I am so happy though that these time I have a hard copy of this book HEHE! this book really is a must read..
Sounds like such an amazing book to read- I like the concept. It sounds like it is not your average run of the mill story line.
This sounds looks a good read - not long ago I was reading the story of someone who managed to swap I think it was a paperclip all the way up to a house, pretty impressive stuff :) X
Like Sarah, I remember the paper clip story. I wonder what I could start trading.... Hmmmmmmmm need to think about that one.
Based on what I have read. This sounds like a great book.
That sounds interesting. I have heard stories like that. Definitely worth reading and learning
I will have to check out this Chapter Reveal. Sounds like an interesting story line.
Such an impressive credential of the author.
What an interesting story. I love the idea of being able to trade small things and eventually receive big things, that's something to think about actually. I like it.
sounds very interesting
Such an unusual concept. I couldn't ditch my friends every three months, though. The car and job, maybe... but the friends. NAH!
I might read this just for its intrigue.
I think there is a TV show about this trading up. You need to be skilled to do this.

I am intrigued by this book. Need to track it down and check it out. Thanks for reviewing it and introducing it to me.
This book sounds very unique. I agree with the human factor trading up could be challenging. It sounds like it does end with a good moral to the story though.
I would not want to change my life every three months. Of course I hate big changes! This sounds interesting, I will have to check it out to see how it turns out.
Another good book to read, thanks for the insight.
I joined and twitter
Now this sounds like a great book! What an interesting concept too! Adding to my list of 'must read's!
sounds like a good book on how to be persistent and be successful in life.
wow! that's pretty interesting. I can't imagine how my life would turn into, if I had to change my lifestyle every 3 months. might be cool to others but...
