  Seven Years Not Forty - How the...

  Most people inherit a financial script they never chose: go to school, get a job, save steadily, and retire at sixty-five. Ellis Marwood argues that this script is not a timeless truth but a historically specific relic — one that was better suited to an era of pensions, shorter lifespans, and limited alternatives. Today, it no longer serves the majority of people well enough to be accepted without question.
  Seven Years, Not Forty is a rigorous, practical guide to building genuine financial freedom on a compressed timeline. Drawing on seventeen years of reporting on the people and companies that fall outside the usual norm, Marwood distills the mechanics behind accelerated wealth creation into a coherent and honest framework — one grounded in ownership, leverage, systems, and solving problems at scale.
  The book begins by dismantling three common financial misconceptions: that high income equals wealth, that saving and investing are sufficient paths to freedom, and that retirement at sixty-five is the natural endpoint of a working life. Using research from Federal Reserve data, Thomas Piketty's capital theory, the Harvard Study of Adult Development, and behavioral economics, Marwood shows why the standard path often fails to deliver what it promises — and what the alternative looks like in practice.
  At the core of the book is a simple but powerful distinction between three financial roads: labor, saving and investing, and ownership. Most people spend their entire careers on the first two. The fastest wealth builders move deliberately toward the third — acquiring businesses, real estate, intellectual property, and equity that produce income independent of their personal labor.
  Marwood then provides the tools to make that move. Readers learn how to escape the salary trap without reckless quitting, how to shift from a consumer to a producer mindset, how to build businesses that run without the owner in the room, and how to deploy the five levers — labor, capital, code, media, and equity — to multiply output far beyond what personal effort alone can achieve. The book also addresses the psychological and structural threats to wealth preservation, and makes a compelling case that true richness must be lived during the building years, not deferred to an uncertain future.
  Through case studies of Sara Blakely, Jan Koum, and Madame C.J. Walker, Marwood shows that compressed wealth creation is not reserved for tech prodigies or the already-privileged. It follows a recognizable pattern: identify a widespread problem, test cheaply, retain ownership, build transferable systems, and use leverage to scale beyond personal labor.
  Seven Years, Not Forty does not promise shortcuts or secret formulas. It offers something more valuable: a clear map, drawn from thousands of real stories, of how ordinary people have built extraordinary financial freedom — and what any reader willing to question the inherited script can begin doing today.

  The Future of the Factory - How...

  For centuries, industrialization and factory-based production have been core ingredients in economic growth, development, and innovation. This symbiotic relationship between industrialization and economic prosperity is now changing. "Megatrends"—trends within the domains of technology, economy, society, and ecology that have a global impact—are changing the ability of the manufacturing sector to serve as the engine of growth, changing traditional ideas of technological progress, and changing growth and development opportunities in both the global South and the global North. 
   
   
   
  Four megatrends are particularly worthy of note: the rise of services, digital automation technologies, globalization of production, and ecological breakdown. In this book, Jostein Hauge provides a novel analysis of how these megatrends are changing industrialization, and charts new pathways for industrial policy and global governance. He also offers a wide-ranging account of the role of technology, globalization, and ecology in shaping the world economy. The Future of the Factory shows that industrialization remains a cornerstone of economic prosperity, but that power asymmetries in the world economy create uneven opportunities for achieving economic growth, development, and industrialization.
