From Mini to Millionaire

Written by entrepreneur and professional stuntman Riky Ash, From Mini to Millionaire outlines the financial principles and personal disciplines that guided him from modest beginnings to achieving millionaire status-without ever relying on loans or credit.

In 1993, with only £7 in his bank account, a £300 van, and a set of woodworking tools, Riky began a journey that transformed his life. In this book, he explains the strategies, mindset, and rules he developed along the way, presenting them in a clear and practical format so readers can apply them to their own financial paths.

Drawing on his personal experience and unconventional views on money, Riky explores why he believes traditional financial systems discourage wealth-building, why maintaining liquidity is essential, and how avoiding debt can be a powerful lifelong advantage. He also shares the personal framework of principles that shaped his success.

Direct, candid, and aimed at readers ready to work both hard and smart, this book serves as a motivational guide for anyone determined to take control of their financial future. This book is not intended for readers who prefer traditional, risk-averse financial advice or who are uncomfortable challenging conventional norms.
