Date of Review:  Nov 16, 2000
The Bottom Line: A great book that should be required reading for every adult, and even for every child.
Review: I'm not kidding. I have been giving this book as graduation and/or wedding gifts for the past 15 years. I always get a thank you from the recipient, but more than once I have gotten a thank you from the graduate's parents or the groom's (never the...

In a series of "Babylonian parables," author George...

A Few Simplistic Ideas, Beaten to Death

Date of Review:  Nov 29, 2004
The Bottom Line: Unless you expect that you'll be inspired or motivated by this sort of book, your time would be better spent elsewhere.
Review: I am going out on a limb and disagreeing with all the previous reviewers of this book. It seems that most of them had their lives changed by this book, so their enthusiasm is understandable. This book didn't change my life, so my view is perhaps...

Okay let's all get rich NOW!

Date of Review:  Nov 19, 2001
The Bottom Line: Here is a chance for you to learn some things about your money!
Review: No book has ever helped me as much as this one did, and I mean this. At first, I was really sceptical about this. I was all like, nobody can teach me how to save money or get rich, because: first of all this guy was from the US, the richest country...

Yes you can put GOLD in your pocket too!!

Date of Review:  Jan 22, 2000

It is common for people to look at what...

You want to be better off?

Date of Review:  Aug 17, 2003
The Bottom Line: This will ensure your retiral years are comfortable.
Review: This is a great book. You'll read it in no time - it only has about 140 pages. But in these few pages, Clason describes an attitude to money that everyone should have but few do.

This book isn't like other books you'll find on how to get...
