Very quick read - absolutely worth going through in one sitting. At times I found myself nodding my head furiously and agreeing thinking to myself - Ya Why don't "they" get that?
Of particular poignancy to me was the part about the trend toward vilifying the wealthy. I see it happening and it's both frightening and sad to me. I for one am all for abundance for all of us.
Now, more than ever, as made clear in this little gem - TIME to create our own economy, take accountability for our life &...more

I like the 'zagging when everyone else is zigging' bit. I also like his view on the current economic situation at large. But is it a wealth discovering experience? No. Gage just describes good entrepreneurship and that hasn't changed. To become successful you need a vision, passion, focus, stamina etc. etc. we already know that, don't we? It's a nice, easy and quick to read book but doesn't live up to its promise and I don't think it has any value.

It took a little over an hour at B&N to read this book. It was worth a speed-read scan. I copied down a few parts to digest. The Author is a contrarian and absolutely right-on with most of his views/predictions; the world has changed, will continue to change and traditional schooling to old-line jobs are dying/dead. Prepare yourself. Do something, think differently and most importantly, be responsible for yourself, have a higher purpose. The social media section and advice for entrepreneurs...more
This book simply confirms what savvy, smart and contrarians already do; take a risk and believe in themselves. At just under 140 pages this book doesn't share anything new that you wouldn't have figured out for yourself if you are a confident, intelligent person. If Gage is making his money being a 'prosperity coach' then there are lots of insecure people out there; far more than I would have imagined. Find those things that make you happy, do your research, find a wise mentor, trust your instin...more
The economy is broken.
The educational system from top to bottom is broken.
Traditional business models are broken.
And that's the good news.
In his new book, Risky Is The New Safe, Randy Gage makes a clear and compelling case that in this time of world turmoil, now is the time to zig while all others zag. The book reads like a a road map from where we are today to where we are heading in the next 10, 20, 50 years.
New morality, disruptive technology, class warfare, social media. It's all here laid d...more

Just finished Randy's book on a flight to Geneva. As expected, Randy has delivered again. He's right in his approach that "Risky" is the new safe. In an ever changing world to look at things through the same lenses means we will only see visions from the past instead of seeing the potential that lies before us. Randy does a masterful job of sharing his wisdom in a way that is easy to grasp. Likewise, Randy is the master of prosperity and clearly a thought leader in that arena. Risky is the New S...more
This is a book which you can't put down because the author just keeps propelling you forward with new scenarios of what life could be and what it will not be anymore. I needed to know everything he had to say just to find ground under my feet again. And that is just the message: the ground we thought was safe is not so permanent anymore. Let Randy show you how you need to approach the upcoming changes and how to love living in a fluctuating world. It actually can be fun, but it is at least neces...more
A great book that shows you how technology will rapidly change our lives and jobs in the near future. While this initially seems scary, Randy then goes on to show you all the new and exciting opportunities that will also come from this. So either get stuck in the past and suffer, or read this book to get ahead of what's to come. This was a short but great read and I finished it in a few hours.
This is a good book with lots of information. It's a positive, practical and an eye opener...about the possibilities that we all can take advantage of IF WE PAY ATTENTION. Cash is no longer KING, creativity is king!
"Risky is the new SAFE" is not only a book...it's a MINDSET!
Thanks Randy!!!

Thanks Randy!!!
Not bad for a weekend read, good book list in the back. Stretched my mind to get it around some of the more radical predictions he was espousing, then when the precious metals chapter came in I lost interested and breezed through the rest of the book. What makes gold better during an apocalypse then water?
5 star +++! I wish someone as brilliant as Mr. Gage would run for President. This book was amazing. A real eye opener, even though my eyes are very much open to the problems with our government and society, I was still completely compelled by this book!
Thought provoking book (heavy on the provoking) for business folks. The book's content might content may upset some readers, but overall this is a book to read with an open mind.
Very exciting up to date read about current and future trends. Randy gage has become the man of the moment in the world of visionary entrepreneurship with this book.
Great book with a lot of good information it. If you ever want to become wealthy, this book is a good start to getting there!
Very inspiring and motivational must read for anyone who wants to find happiness and prosperity.
Es provocativo, retador y para tenerlo a mano, me encanto!!
Forward-thinking. Super fast read. Really like the list of recommended books at the end. I plan to read every one. If you wish to complement the book, watch the "Networked Society" documentary.
Good perspective and good worldview.
All the buzz around this book? Well, it's true. This is a MustRead book.
Brilliant insights with a game plan to boot!
Quick read, but couldn't put it down. Can't stop thinking about it.
