Book Description

Bishop Jordan has written a stellar work that is guaranteed to free the mentally enslaved, acquit the wrongfully charged, and bring healing to the sick. The Laws of Thinking is not a work for the shallow-minded person. It is demanding and challenging. It is neither intended to be used as the basis for unmerited criticism nor as sermon material for the minister having difficulty receiving a fresh work from the Lord. It was written with a very clear aim: to provoke spiritual thought. Bill Gates' Microsoft, Oprah Winfrey's Harpo Productions, Stephen Spielberg's DreamWorks, and even his own Zoe Ministries all began with a thought.
Every invention, university, book, song, business, home, skyscraper, movie, stage play, and baby began when someone chose to think. Nothing happens without thought. Creation did not happen without God's thought. Bishop Jordan's first objective is getting you to think.

The Law Of The Word.......2007-06-27

I really enjoyed the book on the Law Of The Word. In order for God to get something to me I had to get rid of a lot things I no longer had use for so more things could come to me. I was comfortabel with a lot of things, but as I decide to let them go. New things began to come me. Thank You Master Prophet for The Law Of The Word.

You must give things up for God to bring more to you !!!!.......2007-06-27

My co-worker and myself had to take a large pay cut this year. I turned the T.V. on one Sunday morning and the master prophet was speaking on chapter 9, The law of the word. It blessed me so much that I reread the chapter and it gave me encouragement that the door was closing to my salary so God can open up another door for me. I have to learn to trust God that He is still in control. I can buy without money. I am thankful for things that God has put in my path from other sources. My employer is not my only paycheck. Chapter 9 has helped me to be still and listen for the inner voice of God so He can direct me to other opportunies. Thank God for this book that we can always go back and review what has been put into writing and receive hope that this is only temporary. My attitude is not bitterness or worry but thankfulness. This book is a reference guide to help you get back on track when you are overwhelmed by to many obstacles. Thank you master prophet for this divine teaching and lesson that I have learned and shared with my co-worker.

Book Description

Secrets of the Millionaire Mind reveals the missing link between wanting success and achieving it!

Have you ever wondered why some people seem to get rich easily, while others are destined for a life of financial struggle? Is the difference found in their education, intelligence, skills, timing, work habits, contacts, luck, or their choice of jobs, businesses, or investments?

The shocking answer is: None of the above!

In his groundbreaking Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, T. Harv Eker states: "Give me five minutes, and I can predict your financial future for the rest of your life!" Eker does this by identifying your "money and success blueprint." We all have a personal money blueprint ingrained in our subconscious minds, and it is this blueprint, more than anything, that will determine our financial lives. You can know everything about marketing, sales, negotiations, stocks, real estate, and the world of finance, but if your money blueprint is not set for a high level of success, you will never have a lot of money—and if somehow you do, you will most likely lose it! The good news is that now you can actually reset your money blueprint to create natural and automatic success.

Secrets of the Millionaire Mind is two books in one. Part I explains how your money blueprint works. Through Eker's rare combination of street smarts, humor, and heart, you will learn how your childhood influences have shaped your financial destiny. You will also learn how to identify your own money blueprint and "revise" it to not only create success but, more important, to keep and continually grow it.

In Part II you will be introduced to seventeen "Wealth Files," which describe exactly how rich people think and act differently than most poor and middle-class people. Each Wealth File includes action steps for you to practice in the real world in order to dramatically increase your income and accumulate wealth.

If you are not doing as well financially as you would like, you will have to change your money blueprint. Unfortunately your current money blueprint will tend to stay with you for the rest of your life, unless you identify and revise it, and that's exactly what you will do with the help of this extraordinary book. According to T. Harv Eker, it's simple. If you think like rich people think and do what rich people do, chances are you'll get rich too!

Your mind matters...........2007-06-27

Great book. Maybe not new thesis, but it is one that I need to continually check myself. Easy read with powerful results.

Practical Advice plus Reach for the Stars.......2007-06-26

Seldom do books combine down to earth practical advice with a 'reach for the stars" mentality. Harv Eker manages to pull this off and keep you entertained at the same time. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and use many of the techniques on a regular basis. From saving money and learning to think about money in a new way, to rethinking your own mental make up and your self-worth, this book has many great points.
I recommend it very highly. It literally turned my life and my thoughts around.

Great listening.......2007-06-26

The guy had me laughing all the way to Aspen, Colorado. He repeats much of the same stuff I've read over and over. But, he does it in such an entertaining way that I remember his phrases and say them back to myself in certain situations.

In this day and age of historically low savings rates and high consumer debt, it's a great book for young people to read. We do need to be careful not to become overzealous with our obsession with money and keep things in perspective, however.

Browse Through This For 30 Minutes & You'll Realise What An Expensive Piece Of Garbage This Is.......2007-06-18

The back cover on Eker's book proclaims "Give me 5 minutes and I'll predict the rest of your financial life" or something to that effect. Well I'll say "Browse through this book for 30 minutes and you'll realise what an expensive piece of garbage this is."

I brought this book from a bookstrore in India all thanks to the positive and flattering reviews on Amazon. But now I supect that these reviews are fudged up. Maybe Eker or one of his cronies have spent a day writing them trying to mislead buyers. What do I write about the book? Suffice to say it has those zillion times repeated platitudes of "Think Big", "Be committed to being rich", "Focus on opportunities" and making positive affirmations to oneself. But I'd not even call it a good motivational book. Much better motivational books are available in the market (Robin Sharma is a good one). I have wasted my money. Please do not waste yours.

A mystical pep talk with no solid information.......2007-06-17

This book is very light in terms of content, it does not give you any definate strategy, just a lot of stories and anecdotes to pep you up. Of the 17 "wealth principles", many are worthless cliches, although several were sound and worthy of further reflection. The book is really spoiled by the author's reliance of several mystical beliefs, essentially bordering on the basic idea that if you think wishfully about money all the time, the universe will just provide more of it to you. The book is further devalued by the author's constant references to his additional products-I feel ripped out when I pay money for a book and instead of substantive information, I receive advertising. You can flip on the TV anytime late at night and watch advertising for various get rich quick schemes for free.

Book Description

In this short, powerful book, multimillionaire and bestselling author Steven K. Scott reveals King Solomon’s breakthrough strategies to achieve a life of financial success and personal fulfillment.

Steve Scott flunked out of every job he held in his first six years after college. He couldn’t succeed no matter how hard he tried. Then Dr. Gary Smalley challenged him to study the book of Proverbs, promising that in doing so he would achieve greater success and happiness than he had ever known. That promise came true, making Scott a millionaire many times over.

In The Richest Man Who Ever Lived, Scott reveals Solomon’s key for winning every race, explains how to resolve conflicts and turn enemies into allies, and discloses the five qualities essential to becoming a valued and admired person at work and in your personal life. Scott illustrates each of Solomon’s insights and strategies with anecdotes about his personal successes and failures, as well as those of such extraordinary people as Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Edison, Oprah Winfrey, Bill Gates, and Steven Spielberg.

At once inspiring and instructive, THE RICHEST MAN WHO EVER LIVED weaves the timeless truths of one of our greatest works of literature into a detailed roadmap for successful living today.

Customer Reviews:

The Richest Man who ever lived.......2007-06-27

This book is a true blessing. I realized that financial guru's get most of their knowledge from Solomon. I have bought additional books for people at my Church and they love it as well. We are planning to have a bible study using this book. I would highly recommend it to everyone.

Lessons from the book of Proverbs.......2007-06-04

Steven K. Scott has written an interesting book that uses the book of proverbs to illustrate his points. I really enjoyed the book, and although I felt that he sometimes tended to stretch his interpretation of bible passages to fit his point, I found the general messages very clear to understand.

The book of Proverbs does have incredible, time tested information that can change your life and Scott does an excellent job aligning them into a logical order and helping the reader understand the meaning of the many metaphors and parables.

Reading this book has lead me to read the book of Proverbs more often for answers and inspiration. Salomon, in Proverbs, discusses extensively such topics as diligence and slothfulness, and Scott does a pretty good job covering them in his book. Proverbs is an excellent book and The Richest Man Who Ever Lived is a great introduction to it.

Principles for Life.......2007-04-12

Thank you, Steven, for sharing your stories and your pursuit of the wisdom which God imparted to Solomon who then wrote them down for the generations. Whether you believe or not, many of the principles act much like the laws of physics which govern the natural order. I'm not aware of scripture where God asks us to pray for the laws of gravity, aerodynamics, thermodynamics or even for the sun to come up, or for tides, etc. they just work to everyone's benefit as long as our actions don't conflict with the know physical laws. Likewise, God has instituted laws of self governance and behavior that when followed yield positive outcomes toward long life, happiness and prosperity. I enjoyed and recommend the book.

Wise Counsel We Forget.......2007-04-03

This is a wonderful book that makes reading and understanding the wise counsel of King Solomon easy and pleasurable. It helped me understand past circumstances and how I could have better handled them. This book provokes self examintion as well as examintion of circumstances and people who have crossed our life's path. It reminded me of principles my father taught me that had been forgotten in the midst of hurried living. Reading of Steven's experiences when following King Solomon's counsel and when he didn't is inspirational. One sad thought, though; people who need to read and follow the guidance found in this book to become better citizens of planet earth will probably never read it. However, Steven gives guidance for dealing with those people.

Mark's opinion.......2007-03-26

Excellent revelation of the truths contained in the book of Proverbs,
Save reading the word but get to the facts simply by reading this book; the author has spent many years extracting the truth and wisdom of the wisest and richest man who ever lived, take a short cut and read it in days and extract its message.

Download Description

A breakthrough practical spiritual guide to achieving all your goals

For the first time ever, one of the rarely discussed formulas for building wealth and achieving success in all areas is revealed in The Attractor Factor. Popular marketing and spirituality guru Joe Vitale argues that those who try hard and fail need to remake their inner beings in order to easily attract success, wealth, and happiness. Many people do the right things but get the wrong results; it's not so much what they do, as what they are inside. The problem for most people is self-sabotage. In five easy steps, Vitale shows anyone how to become happier and more successful by doing a few simple things differently every day. Part wealth-creation guide, part spiritual road map, part autobiography, The Attractor Factor offers inspiring, effective answers for anyone who wants to feel better, be happier, get wealthier, and get ahead in life.

Joe Vitale (Wimberley, TX) is President of Hypnotic Marketing, Inc., a marketing consulting firm. He has been called "the Buddha of the Internet" for his combination of spirituality and marketing acumen. His articles are widely read and his professional clients include The Red Cross, PBS, Hermann Children's Hospital, and many other small and large international businesses. His past books include There's a Customer Born Every Minute and The AMA Complete Guide to Small Business Advertising.

Joe Vitale does it again.......2007-06-21

Once again Joe Vitale has written a book that I found to be a "must have." Some words of caution, however: Dr. Vitale is a master at repurposing content so some of the stories and information in this book are also contained in some of his other books. They're still worth hearing/reading more than once and I find myself opening this book at random and reading from it as a reminder of how important the "inside" feelings and beliefs are to the "outside" successful life.

Great Book for Students of "The Secret" and the Law of Attraction.......2007-06-13

*****
This is not a perfect book, but it is an enjoyable and very helpful book for students of the Law of Attraction. Joe Vitale writes honestly and in a conversational style (this is a quick and easy read), discussing the Law of Attraction and how to apply it specifically to building wealth. However, he also covers attracting health, relationships, and more. The principle is the same no matter what it is applied to.

His process is distilled to 5 steps:
1. Know what you don't want.
2. Select what you do want.
3. Clear all negative or limiting beliefs.
4. Feel what it would be like to have, do, or be what you want.
5. Let go as you act on your intuitive impulses, and allow the results to manifest.

The value of the book is in the discussion as to HOW this happens, and all of the many examples the author gives. He also discusses historical resources, authors, and motivational speakers who influenced him in his personal development, so the book is full of great resources.

The best book on this topic I've read is Michael Losier's "The Law of Attraction". This book would be in the second tier after the LOA, but very, very valuable. The only criticism I have of it is that the author does plug himself and his other offerings a lot, but I mine for the gold, and there is much gold here, so I just glossed over anything I didn't need or wasn't interested in.

A Very Enjoyable Book!.......2007-05-24

We all know that there's nothing new under the sun these days. What makes this book so good is that it's motivating, inspiring and you feel like Joe is talking to you, not at you.

If you don't actively take steps to attract your desires as outlined in the book, then you can't possibly expect results. One of the highlights of the book was when Joe was describing how he manifested his dream car when he had no idea how he was going to do it. So I decided to do the same thing and here's what happened:

Before I start, I want to say that my ultimate dream car is a 500 series BMW (black). This would have represented quite a jump from the Honda Civic that I was still making payments to. So I decided to take baby steps and did exactly what Joe did (waltzed into a showroom with as much confidence he could muster and fill out the application for a new car).

While my new monthly payments only ended up being $77 a month more, it felt GREAT to drive a spanking new 07 Honda Civic! In the past, I would have allowed limiting thoughts plaque my mind (i.e. "You can't afford a new car! Are you crazy, you don't need a new car!" "What if you can't make the new monthly payments?" etc etc).

I have to say that since getting my new car, I've attracted new income in my life (i.e. more speaking engagements, donations to my "Adversity University blog and other unexpected income)!!

What Joe was trying to share was that if you simply take a risk, trust the universe to provide, then that's exactly what will happen. It's my opinion if you need to take baby steps on the way to your ultimate dream car or house or whatever it is you desire, then there's nothing wrong with that. You can't undo a lifetime's worth of limited thinking in one day. Dismantling limited thinking takes time and patience.

I've recommended this book to several of my readers at "Adversity University." It's a wonderful gem of a book to have in your library. Go and get it!

I want to add one more thing. Even though Joe doesn't say this in his book, he smokes cigars. I found out because he participated in a blogger experiment where bloggers everywhere listed at least 10 daily success habits. I wonder if he likes Montesino Toros? They are great! I smoke one because I like to sit out on my porch and contemplate how wonderful things have turned out in my life, thanks to the "Attractor Factor"!

The Attractor Factor is a must read!.......2007-05-19

A few months ago I got a copy of the Attractor Factor. I read it in two days. I was so on fire with the information I was receiving ... I could
barely sit still in my seat. It was as though a switch got flipped inside of me. It all made sense and was so simple! I knew that I could apply "The Attractor Factor" priciples. I was going to go after my dreams and create the life I'd always wanted.

I'm an artist and have always dreamed of making my living with my artistic gifts.

Not too long after reading "The Attractor Factor," I got a copy of "The
Secret" and watched it. Well ... let's just say that the fire that was
burning pretty good already turned into a bonfire!

In just three short months here is what has happened:

A huge chunk of nearly $35,000 in credit card debt was released and what
was left was consolidated into an affordable bank loan. That happened in
only three days ... and all the checks to pay off the debts were in the mail within a week.

I have had so many opportunities presenting themselves to me that I don't have time to do them all.

I've started a business painting murals in people's homes and have had an
excellent response. I've also attracted another artist to help me do the
work.

I have several peices of art hanging on public display, and for sale, at a local restaurant.

Abundance is beginning to flow more and more freely and my confidence to
magnetize money to me grows with each day. A woman who is starting her own art school has asked me to come and work with her to teach art to children and adults.

I have definite plans to leave my corporate job at the beginning of 2008.
And I can't wait to see what happens next. I am so excited!

I have gone from a life of despair, disappointment and depression to one of incredible joy and passion. I am remembering who I really am.

I highly recommend The Attractor Factor as a valuable learning tool for those who are ready to empower themselves and create their lives.

And here is an incredibly important bit of wisdom of which Dr. Viatle's
work has reminded me: It is hope that is ignited in the hearts of people
that is the fuel that burns the fire. Hope is the key.

If you want to live the life of your dreams ... YOU CAN DO IT! If I can do it ... you can! Just believe in yourself. You are a miracle -- treat yourself like one!

Before you know it, you'll find that your glass is always half full, that
abundance and harmony flows in all areas of your life, and that life itself is soooo good!

READ THIS BOOK.......2007-05-19

Read this book, then buy one for everyone you know! Joe Vitale is without a doubt one of the most gifted and real authors I have ever read. This book provided me with the tools to discover and change the beliefs that have limited me for 30 years. Of all the self-help, metaphysical, and even novels I have read in my life, this one stands out. Joe is a touchable person who is full of passion and delivers a message in a way that is easy to apply. Buy and read anything with this man's name on it. Thank you Joe and keep on marketing,writing and sharing.

Well worth a read..........2007-06-27

Sandra Ann Taylor has written a very clear and easy to read book.... Drawing upon the secrets of manifestation, she articulates the universal power wonderfully... I would certainly advise anyone who is looking at applying the principles and secrets of the univeral energies to read and apply the techniques presented here....

Fantastic Book!!!!.......2007-06-27

This is a fantastic book and was an absolute page turner I just could not put the book down. I also have another book from the same book so I knew it would be a good book. This I believe is her best book and would recommend to anyone.

Amazing journey which can change your life .......2007-06-19

Sandra Taylor's book on attraction is by far the best source I have read regarding this topic. The book includes many scientific principles from phase entanglement to paradoxical intent. The book is informative and contains many tools one can implement into a daily lifestyle. After reading the book, I found my self inspired and motivated to change and enhance my life. The book is quick paced and not at all repetitive and boring as one reviewer noted. IF YOU HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR A BOOK TO HELP YOU ACHIEVE THE LIFE YOU WANT AND DESERVE, THIS IS IT.

Repetitive and boring.......2007-06-02

I had high expectations for this title after reading the glowing reviews here on Amazon. Before I read it, the book seemed to fit in perfectly with my personal journey of self-exploration. I have read several titles on the subject and I suppose I wanted a book that covered the subject matter more thoroughly. Afterall, it is easy to be impressed with the subject, but actually making it stick in your mind is an entirely different matter, one I hoped this book would aid me with.

The book did not deliver. I found it boring and over the top repetitive. Instead of being more thorough it merely repeats the same basic things over and over again, presenting it as new information in following chapters. Trust me, a few times you can bare, but 2/3s into the book it really gets annoying.

It is also not very practical: besides offering affirmations (which you could no doubt formulate yourself and are so mushy / utopian in nature that your mind just won't wrap around it) it doesn't hand you any other tools. If you didn't need any you wouldn't have to read the book in the first place, which just makes me wonder what the point of this book is.

It won't do as an introduction to the matter, for that you need a quick & lively presentation, which -its various flaws aside- "The Secret" delivers much more effectively.
It won't do as a more thorough title to enforce your new found beliefs. And if you have certain personal problems (like a lack of self-esteem), they won't be adressed and without overcoming them, you won't be able to fully integrate the muddled message of this book in your system.

I put it aside, one of the rare occassions where I can't even get myself to finish the book.

Book Description

Foundations are a peculiarly American institution. They have been the dynamo of social change since their invention at the beginning of the last century. Yet they are cloaked in secrecy- their decision-making and operations are inscrutable to the point of obscurity-leaving them substantially unaccountable to anyone.

Joel Fleishman has been in and around foundations for almost half a century...running them, sitting on their boards, and seeking grants from them. And in this groundbreaking book he explains the history of foundations, tells the stories of the most successful foundation initiatives-and of those that have failed-and explains why it matters.

The baby boomer generation is going to participate in the largest transfer of wealth in history when it passes on its assets to its successor generation. The third sector is about to become more powerful than ever. This book shows how foundations can provide a vital spur to the engine of the American, and the world's, economy-if they are properly established and run.

Examining a Big but Little Known Area.......2007-03-09

Foundations are a subset of Non-Profit organizations that have become surprisingly big busines in the United States. Somewhere around 1/7th of the business in the country is conducted by these organizations. Somewhere around 1/9th of the workforce is employed by one. They have become an integral part of the American economy.

In this book Mr. Fleishman looks at Foundations (a number of which he has been associated as employee, trustee or some other capacity). He examines what makes a foundation successful, and how some have failed. He offers insight and advice on how to make a foundation more successful, and at the same time how foundations should have an obligation to become more accountable since they received special tax considerations from the Government. He suggests that this accountability should be done by the foundations voluntarily. However, Mr. Fleishman is an attorney and believes that if voluntary response is not forthcoming then new legal requirements should be placed upon them to require more openness.

Deserves serious reading from people who want to make a difference........2007-02-06

Joel Fleishman's book lays an excellent bedrock of history underneath its discussion of philanthropy as a great element of American tradition. We live in days of some staggering examples - from Warren Buffet's living bequest of billions, to the fine work of Bill and Melinda Gates - and many others. But rather than see this as some product of the new millennium - Fleishman shows how the new avatars of corporate generosity are following a fine tradition. More than this, the author shows that certain gifting strategies have been leveraged for huge social benefit. For those who are thinking - at whatever scale - of giving to support a cause, this book sets out the strategies that have produced most benefit. This is an excellent, thoughtful piece of work on a topic that currently has wide currency. Well worth reading.

Informative book.......2006-11-24

The book came pretty quick in perfect condition. Very imformative to those who are new to this kind of money advise. Excellent service from the company it came from. They have great business practices. I just joined a financial service and what they taught me really caught my attention and I wanted to know more so they recommended this book to me. It is an excellent book for anyone who is just starting in the financial business.

One of the worst financial books on the market.......2006-11-16

The premise of this book is to reveal the 8 secrets of how ordinary people became successful investors. Yet there really are no secrets revealed. The whole book is basically one big, thinly disguised advertisement for the author's financial advisory services. One of the secrets in the book is to devote less than three hours per month to personal finances, and that includes paying bills. I fail to see how that is "secret" that will ever help anyone get a handle on their finances. While the author encourages readers not to spend any time reading up on personal finances, the book is filled with comments about how the smartest thing many of the author's clients ever did was getting a financial advisor. So evidently the path to financial success, according to the author, is to not read anything about personal finances on your own and instead pay someone else to do all of the financial thinking and planning for you. I don't think anyone with any basic logic skills would believe this is really true. If you want a good book on how ordinary people really became wealthy, I'd recommend reading the Millionaire Next Door instead.

Don't be a follower, don't be a Lemming!!!.......2005-12-31

I ask that you please bear with me in my response to the other reviewer's responses about this book as well as my review.
As for my review, I felt that the author presented some very good axioms about money and finances in general. I felt that the "In Their Own Words" sections were extremely insightful and prove that the average person can obtain wealth. Overall, I would recommend this book to others and I would recommend that you keep an open mind about his ideas, as they most likely are not the same ideas that your parents touted about money.
As for the other responses, many readers commented along these lines and I would like to rebut them because it is obvious that those readers are following rules about money that where probably passed to them by others who had very little financial success.

-Some readers say the Mr. Edelman talks down to the readers; I think that they feel this way because like a lot of people, they don't like being told that they are wrong. Their pride gets in the way. When it comes to money lessons, you need to shelve your pride!

-Some suggest that this advice is dead wrong even though they admit that their way of amassing money didn't work or that they have very little to show for it; This is pride getting in the way of clear rational thinking. Why not try a different approach if yours isn't working?

-Some gave it a bad review because they felt that Edelman was trying to push his own products. Other than promoting his other books which was annoying at times, he never suggest that you should use his insurance, brokerage or financial advice services!

-It's amazing how many people gave this book a bad review but how most gave a book titled, "Die Broke" five stars!? This proves the overwhelming trend towards instant gratification in today's world, which is in direct contrast to this book.

-Still others point to the recent downturn in the market as evidence that the stock market or investing in equities can't be counted on. Yet these same people forget that the market has had historical highs and lows but over the long term has produced an average return of +7%. These people are nothing but a modern day chicken little. Should we just put or money under a mattress and do nothing because we may loose money in the short run? Remember we are supposed to be investing over the long term.

-Still others reference that many people "they knew" lost everything in their retirement accounts just years shy of retiring due to the recent stock market bust. If these people had done their homework they wouldn't have had their entire retirement accounts 100% invested in equities. That's their fault. Again are we supposed to NOT invest because "they said this" or because of fear? Many people get in bad situations with finances because they act on Emotions and not out of Rational decisions.

-Still others give the good old Enron standby as a reason not to follow Mr. Edelman's advice. If they did even a little research they would have found that those employees lost everything because they were 100% invested in Enron stock. Whose fault is that? They were riding the cash cow like everyone else until it all fell apart. Remember the old adage, that `Pigs get slaughtered'? Yes, the company did require every employee to invest at least 20% of their 401k in Enron stock. Shouldn't these employees have used some deductive reasoning and asked if that was a company that they wanted to work for if they were forced to buy company stock? Does that even sound logical? No, those employees had dollar signs in their eyes like everyone else.

-Another talking point that other reviewers referenced was the hotly debated idea of carrying a Mortgage. Most people tie emotions with paying for a home. While I understand that there are some feelings tied to home ownership it shouldn't dictate your financial decisions. As an example, one reviewer said this in reference to paying extra on their mortgage; "The piece of mind that came with owning our home free and clear was worth more to us." This is a perfect example of what Mr. Edelman talks about in his book. Will that piece of mind pay the bills if you get laid off, loose your job? I don't think it will. Why do people beat themselves over the head to pay off a 5%, 6%, or 7% mortgage? Truth is, it's the cheapest debt you can ever have. As an example, I know people that have 15-year mortgages or people that send extra payments while at the same time having two or three credit cards charging 17%-30% interest. Or they have one or two car payments totaling $500-$1000 a month but they are consumed with paying off their mortgage!?

-Still others ask if he would still follow this advice after the recent loses in the stock market and down turn in the economy. Well he does. It is obvious that these people didn't do their homework and bother to find out that he wrote another book after 9/11 suggesting and reinforcing the same principles he had prior to the economic downturn.

-Lastly, why would you want to follow the nepotism of these readers if after all their way hasn't worked or they haven't tried Mr. Edelman's way? After all, the 5,000 or so in this book were able to do it! I think that many forget that slow and steady wins the race. The author isn't offering a quick fix but a sensible plan to put one on the road to wealth! Regardless of what these readers say, success isn't measures against the DOW or S

Rachel Capil.......2005-11-02

When I started at a new job this book was recommended to all new hires so I read it and I thought it was a great book. I really believe anyone that wants to learn more about investing and being finically knowledgeable should read it. I am not an expert by any means, but I thought it was well written and kept me interested in reading it every day. He has helpful suggestions to growing your financial future and that can never hurt anyone who is open to learning.

BEWARE this "sage".......2005-06-28

You've got to be kidding! Here's the author's main recommendation: Carry a large mortgage and instead of paying it off, invest money in the stock market because "you can easily make 10% returns a year." If that's true, why did so many people lose their life savings recently in stocks and mutual funds? Of course, this guy is a fund manager, which is why he is trying to convince people to invest. BEWARE this sly salesman!!! Edelman encourages people to invest the money they should be using to pay off the mortgage because "mortgage interest is tax-deductable." True, but that does not mean the IRS refunds ALL of your mortgage interest. It is still costing you money, so why gamble on stocks that might lose money when you know you can be paying off your house and having that security? If you are into the idea of "leveraging" then this book might be for you. But most "ordinary Americans" would be better served looking elsewhere.

Book Description

Recorded history is a finely-woven magic fabric of intricate lies about events predating the sixteenth century. There is not a single piece of evidence that can be reliably and independently traced back earlier than the eleventh century. This book details events that are substantiated by hard facts and logic, and validated by new astronomical research and statistical analysis of ancient sources.

Accepted History & Chronology Must Be Changed. .......2007-04-09

There is no doubt that history as most know it is a sham, & institution's version of History both University & Church is fradulent & inaccurate. Everything was established with an agenda, The real "Dark Ages" are now when we have access to incredible amounts of information past authorities & more important 'common folk' didn't have but our institutions & educators are slow to evolve because of what has ignorantly & arrogantly been taught for too long. This is on many subjects not just Chronology.

For anyone to question "Why would a Mathematician have anything credible to say of History?" The answer is from Dr. Fomenko's preface in the book: "It would be worthwhile to remind the reader that in the XVI-XVII century Chronology was considered to be a subdivision of Mathematics." These volumes could possibly be some of the most important works to date & should be read by everyone with an interest in History, especially professors & educators who have a duty to the public. I have read both books & must say that 'Chronology 1' has some very eye opening & revolutionary information. Even if these volumes are part true the implications are profound & opens the doors to further investigations & questions which must be done. I speak several different lanquages & must say the logic Dr. Fomenko uses with "inflection" of words & words being read from left to right in one region & right to left in another then written backwards, the removal of vowels & get down to basics of words, or different cities & locations having the same name etc. is correct. Vowel usage has always been optional & varied, actually complicating linquistics & study. The first thing one has to understand is that words never had a fixed spelling in history like we do now, the spelling of words was mutable & regional, as well as names & titles of people were vast, varied & changed, NOTHING WAS FIXED or understood linear. Matters of Life & Death as well as financial profiteering yesterday & today were & are made with ignorant, illogical & conspiratorial views of history & reality, it's time people get closer to the Truth & society collectively grow up.

Very Interesting.......2007-03-07

It is a good proposal and I believe it will mature into something even better in the future. I think it deserves to be read.

History as Science Fiction.......2007-01-10

Anatoly Fomenko has written a very intriguing book, full of pictures, charts, and computer 'proof' of his thesis: backwards of AD900 we don't really know what happened or when. Between AD900 and AD1600 there is more certainty, but there is still a lot of fuzzy ground, and things don't get reliable until we get past the 1600's where the printing press made it very difficult for the perpetrators of this timeline manipulation to change anything that had been committed to print. The Dark Ages did not happen. Books were burned for a reason. One organization has doubled the actual length of its existence by expanding the real chronology. Read why.

I had always wondered why Christ died about AD33 and yet men waited until the 11th century to form the Knights Templar, the Cathars, etc and go after the Holy Land by force. Why the 1000 year gap? Turns out there wasn't more than a 10-12 year gap and he proves it using astronomy. This also implies that the planet is not as old as we have been told, and current Christian and other creationist scientists are already championing that idea without being aware of Fomenko's book. The two groups, creationist scientists and the Russian mathematical analysts corroborate each other. Fascinating.

Of course, all this flies in the face of what we have been told traditionally is the 'proper' chronology of western civilization, and most readers will experience 'cognitive dissonance' in reading this book. It means that our history going backwards from AD1600 becomes progressively more incorrect and unreliable until it cannot be trusted at all... in the space of 700-800 years.

Naturally, the curious, open-minded reader will want to know WHO did this, WHY, and did any of the events we think of as really ancient ever happen?
Dr. Fomenko is a respected scientist/mathematician at Moscow State University who has already answered these questions to the satisfaction of his initially skeptical colleagues. Most of them are now believers, a few still refuse to believe (the usual diehards), and of course the western press has ignored Fomenko's work -- for obvious reasons when you read the book. The ones who perpetrated this chronology ruse have a lot to answer for. They are still with us. That's why this book is a well-kept secret.

I gave the book a 4-star rating because I was unable to check out some of his claims; those I checked were as he said. But if even 1/3 of his claims are true, this punches a big hole in what we think is our history, the meaning of western civilization, our educational process (for repeating the ruse as gospel), and the trustworthiness of the organization that perpetrated this ruse, well-intentioned or not.

This book relates to current research into a Young Earth paradigm, to John Keel's discoveries about our planet, and Fr Malachi Martin's insights (in his now out-of-print books). We are indeed sheep who are manipulated and kept ignorant -- for a reason. While knowing what these men have to say may be the "booby prize" (as in: 'what can you do with this knowledge?'), it will provide interesting reading. Didn't someone say: "...and the Truth will set you free."?? For you to judge if this book contains the truth.

Provocative, appealing and controversial.......2006-08-02

Fomenko has succeeded to convincingly demonstrate the misconception about what "history" factually is... It is fiction and -like we can read and judge for ourselves- no science. It indeed is "make belief" only. I "discovered" Fomenko while studying the "old" history of Al Andaluz, Spain. Having found too many contradictions in available data, having seen too many forgeries as to pretend the importance of christianity for its decline, I ventured out to find Fomenko, who convinced me that we know little if anything for sure of the epoch before the XI-century. However, the integration of the Arabic-Islamic cultural history into the heavily distorted Western fails... There are some attempts to fit "the budding new religion" (Islam) into Fomenko's scheme, but they are too weak to be taken seriously and too often focussing on Turkey as the region where things started to influence the West, which is untrue at all.
Islam certainly was no "new religion" in the X-century. That the highly cultivated Al Andaluz ruler Mohammed-I could have been "mirrored" down in time into some myth about the "illiterate" founder of Islam itself is highly speculative. Nevertheless, Fomenko convinces me about the processes that were involved in forging a christian history. Intriguing and controversial as his books are, I recommend them as to rethink our current position in time and space and simply verify what was claimed. It is a "good" book, but not for bedtime reading... Mundus vult decipi, the world wants to be cheated. Fomenko's readers will understand why.

pharaohs lived in the 3rd century AD.......2006-02-16

Traces of white wine were found in Tutankhamen's tomb however there were no record of white wine in Egypt until the 3rd century AD, 1600 years after the young pharaoh died according to the traditional chronology. http://www.newscientist.com/channel/being-human/mg18925395.400
It can be interpreted as a contribution towards New Chronology theory that pharaohs lived in the 3rd century AD.

Could Be Better.......2007-05-01

I am a teenager who had previously heard of his book for adults under the same name. I bought the teen one because it looked like it would be simpler and I felt I would learn better with the exercises. But I feel it was too simplistic and I wonder if I would have been better off getting the book for adults.
It is still useful but maybe what I was looking for was more information. This stuff felt too general talking about assets versus liabilities or good debt versus bad debt. Since I am still interested in the subject matter I will not give up.
I might try one of his adult books before I give up completely.

NO SECRETS.......2007-04-07

I READ THIS BOOK TO SEE IF IT WAS AS THE TITLE SUGGEST IT IS.THERE ARE NO SECRETS. IT IS JUST A CASUAL CONVERSATION IN THE DIRECTION OF TEACHING YOUR TEEN ABOUT MONEY.

Good beginners book.......2007-04-02

THis book is good for people that don't know much about money or aren't very creative. But nonetheless it's a good "bebinners" book.

More emphasis need on education, being formal or financial.......2006-06-17

The author, while he does suggest education is important, does not stress it - he suggests advanced education is important only if you are entering into a professional career. (Read the introduction to see what I mean) - You may want to speak to the your children on that, I felt a bit uncomfortable knowing that's what my chilren would be reading.

It was just 2 paragraphs. Maybe I am sensitive to education and what it means, but I certainly don't want to give anyone `permission' to not study. Formal education or financial education both take time and effort, nothing comes easy.

Despite the controversy surrounding the author, Robert Kiyosaki, I strongly feel that this particular book is still worth reading by teens, as it offers good teen-friendly advice on achieving financial headstart & freedom.

Overall, his advice is also given in a straight-talk, easy-to-understand manner.

In a nut shell, this particular book covers basic principles of cash flow, assets & liabilities, savings & investments, as well as spotting money-making opportunities. There is even useful information about personal learning style while developing financial intelligence.

Yes, the author's published stuff to some extent may seem hyberbolic on the surface, but deep down, you can always discern some useful learning from some of his teachings. [Personally, I have encountered the author in Hawaii. Frankly, I don't like his arrogant attitude & his seemingly characteristic propensity for running circles around people who ask pertinent questions, but I do respect some of his thoughtware.]

His core financial advice to teens is certainly realistic:

- work to learn, not to earn;
- don't work for money, make money work for you!;
- play games to learn!

Allow me to share this simple reading philosophy of mine: Absorb what is useful; reject what is useless; research your own experience & add what is specifically your own!
