Not only THE economics text..., 22 Jun 2007
This book provided the foundation for most economic policy (in the west at least) through the middle of the 20th century, and as such must be considered among the most important books ever published. It will show the reader why certain decisions were taken, and how we got to where we are. Even if you don't agree with Keynes' theories this is an indispensable guide for anyone who wants to understand government economic policy.

Beyond his importance as an economist however, Keynes was a member of the Bloomsbury group of artists and Bohemians, and that is reflected in his writing. This is no novel, but there are few better written economic texts.

In the long-run, we are all dead so read this book, 11 Jun 2004
This book, by the farther of modern macroeconomics, is one of the most influential economic texts to date. Not only did it form the basis of the post-war consensus, in the UK, but also in Europe and Northern America.

This book, however, is worth a read in its own right. This will enable anyone to understand the budget with much more ease. Also if anyone is doing a course in Economics or Political Economy, it comes highly recommended.

The Bible of Economics, 07 May 2004
It is on this book that all subsequent economic has either been based, or has been compared to.
As a student of economics, this book is a MUST read, fully explaining the theories of Aggregate Demand and it's effects (which Classical economists will tend to ignore) and how to influence this through the AD equation.
For the average reader, this book will explain much of the world around you, and will make budget speeches make much more sense.
All together, possibly one of the most important economic books of all time, still pertinent and holding still truer as the current gov't holds a Keynesian course on the economy whilst it flourishes.

The best piece of Economic literature of all time, 31 Jan 2002
Although this book is slightly aged after the abolition of hereditary peers and devolution for Scotland and Wales, it is still worth reading for it's excellent and comprehensive critique of New Right Policy. The book starts with how the Conservatives fused Neo liberal thought with popular policies, creating an electoral machine which won four general elections in a row. It talks about how the Conservatives managed to manipulate the uncodified British constitution to great effect during the 1930's and 1940's.

It simultaneously charts the crisis among the British Left, and the European Left in general, and how the New Labour experiment attempted to deal with this. The main thrust of the book is that the last twenty odd years have been an experiment in free market economics which have had serious effects on social cohesion, and given us the lowest paid workforce, yet the highest paid executives in Europe.

The basis of modern economic debate, 02 May 1999
While I tend towards the opposing view of Classical economics, Keynesian economics cannot easily be argued away. Keynes' theories are the foundation of our present Federal Reserve system and remain the basis for much of modern economic thought. Definitely a must-read for any aspiring economist.

The first unscary book about money, 14 Jan 2008
This book reads at such a pace that you forget it's all about the world's worst subject: finance. I picked it up with dread, thinking it would deliver horrible and impossible lectures about how to earn and save money. Instead, the writing and advice are totally down-to-earth and (almost always) simple to follow. A brilliant book for New Year resolutions.

Humourous And Helpful, 08 Jan 2008
I am hopeless with money, so feel it obvious this book was written purely to assist me with my day to day life! A great book that makes the boring interesting, and makes the complicated easy to understand. I would highly recommend this to any woman who lives in fear of opening the post, hides her shopping under the bed, or still shys away from the word 'pension'. Enjoy.

An excellent, humourous read, 08 Jan 2008
This book makes perfect January reading. Now you've promised yourself you will improve your finances this year this book will show you how to do it in a simple, humourous way.

Very Useful and Good Read, 01 Jan 2008
This is a very basic guide to finances for women. I really thought it was very clear, giving lots of practical tips and also highlighting a lot of the injustice of the way society is ripping off women who have babies, but also what you can do about it. There are sections on spending, saving, debt, pensions, investment, etc. It was honestly a very interesting read and I just wish I'd read it earlier.

Sorting out my finances is def a resolution for this year.

I'm a bloke and bought this on the pretence of buying it for my sis. Merryn is an accomplished and entertaining financial writer and editor of Moneyweek, a brilliant publication for amateur and professional investors alike. Obviously this book is aimed at women but it's also very easy read for those who are money-illiterate and much of the info is equally relevant to men. Also gives us blokes a startling insight on why the fairer sex habitually haemorrhage cash. Follow her advice and you will be well on your way to financial freedom.

Sound and timely advice, 20 Apr 2008
With economic forecasts sounding dire warnings, this book has come at just the right time. Sensible advice given in an amusing way, it doesn't take itself too seriously while still hammering home the main message: you can only spend it once! Help yourself to make better spending decisions. Better yet, buy it for someone who needs to budget better - perhaps they will get the hint.

This Little Book, 07 Oct 2008
I thought this little book was just one of those positive thinking books, get-rich-quick schemes that gave you false information on how to be happy and wealthy. O' how I was wrong! This little book changed my entire life from a bus driver who used to live in London to a wealthy business man now living in N/Hollywood. Growing up as a Christian, I 'always thought' that there was some secret that was removed from the Bible... and finally, this little book shows up on YouTube through a friend, so I decided to buy it from amazon.

Up till this very day I'm shocked at the powers this little book contains! After a few months of reading this little powerful book, my life seemed to be a rocket ship to the moon. It one-day all started at work, in the morning, I noticed a miserable bus driver who does'nt like making friends with anyone. I wanted to make friends with this guy a couple of years ago suddenly asking me with a smile if I would like to drink some coffee or tea from the vending machine in the canteen.

Well, I thought, that's strange! I thought nothing of it and went to do my duty. I found a wallet on the bus which contained nearly £300 and planned giving it in on my trip back to the garage but some guy turned up and identified it was his wallet, thanked me for finding it, and gave me £50 just like that! Then after that I noticed friends at work asking me if I needed something from the shop like a snack or a drink, e.t.c which no one ever did ask before.

This power I was feeling inside me started getting stronger as the days went by. Passengers all of a sudden started looking and saying hello to me with a smile on their faces in a certain way as if I had made their day somehow! I knew God was answering my prayers. And I knew definately that the time is now coming for my life to change. And guess what! Miracle after miracle after miracle was happening to me in my life...everything I seem to want just started showing up around me, everywhere I go, everyone around me just liked me for some reason.

Although it's called a secret behind the secret, I don't think it's a secret because a lot of people know about the secret - "The Law of Attraction", but you'll be surprised the amount of people world-wide that don't know about it. If they did know about this secret and became a student to the laws of the universe then everyone would be well-off as I am.

I don't know what the book will do for you because I believe that everyone carries his own cross, everyone has his own belief and Faith. But if you do buy this book and you become a student of Wallace D. Wattles, read this book every day. Keep it with you, even when you become very rich. Commit it to memory. Do not think about other systems and theories.

This powerful little book is intended for the men and women whose most pressing need is for money - for people who wish to get rich first and philosophize afterward. You MUST be ready to control the ancient secret powers. (within you!) I'll say this: This little book is about 'The Power of Prayer' and personally, I think the secret is thousands of years old. The object of all life is development. It is not possible to live a really complete or successful life unless one is rich.

There is a POWER which never fails to present opportunity to the Advancing Man who is moving in obedience to the Law. God cannot help helping you if you ACT IN A CERTAIN WAY. He must do so in order to help himself.

It simultaneously charts the crisis among the British Left, and the European Left in general, and how the New Labour experiment attempted to deal with this. The main thrust of the book is that the last twenty odd years have been an experiment in free market economics which have had serious effects on social cohesion, and given us the lowest paid workforce, yet the highest paid executives in Europe.

The basis of modern economic debate, 02 May 1999
While I tend towards the opposing view of Classical economics, Keynesian economics cannot easily be argued away. Keynes' theories are the foundation of our present Federal Reserve system and remain the basis for much of modern economic thought. Definitely a must-read for any aspiring economist.

Not only THE economics text..., 22 Jun 2007
This book provided the foundation for most economic policy (in the west at least) through the middle of the 20th century, and as such must be considered among the most important books ever published. It will show the reader why certain decisions were taken, and how we got to where we are. Even if you don't agree with Keynes' theories this is an indispensable guide for anyone who wants to understand government economic policy.

Beyond his importance as an economist however, Keynes was a member of the Bloomsbury group of artists and Bohemians, and that is reflected in his writing. This is no novel, but there are few better written economic texts.

In the long-run, we are all dead so read this book, 11 Jun 2004
This book, by the farther of modern macroeconomics, is one of the most influential economic texts to date. Not only did it form the basis of the post-war consensus, in the UK, but also in Europe and Northern America.

This book, however, is worth a read in its own right. This will enable anyone to understand the budget with much more ease. Also if anyone is doing a course in Economics or Political Economy, it comes highly recommended.

The Bible of Economics, 07 May 2004
It is on this book that all subsequent economic has either been based, or has been compared to.
As a student of economics, this book is a MUST read, fully explaining the theories of Aggregate Demand and it's effects (which Classical economists will tend to ignore) and how to influence this through the AD equation.
For the average reader, this book will explain much of the world around you, and will make budget speeches make much more sense.
All together, possibly one of the most important economic books of all time, still pertinent and holding still truer as the current gov't holds a Keynesian course on the economy whilst it flourishes.

The best piece of Economic literature of all time, 31 Jan 2002
Although this book is slightly aged after the abolition of hereditary peers and devolution for Scotland and Wales, it is still worth reading for it's excellent and comprehensive critique of New Right Policy.

The first unscary book about money, 14 Jan 2008
This book reads at such a pace that you forget it's all about the world's worst subject: finance. I picked it up with dread, thinking it would deliver horrible and impossible lectures about how to earn and save money. Instead, the writing and advice are totally down-to-earth and (almost always) simple to follow. A brilliant book for New Year resolutions.

Humourous And Helpful, 08 Jan 2008
I am hopeless with money, so feel it obvious this book was written purely to assist me with my day to day life! A great book that makes the boring interesting, and makes the complicated easy to understand. I would highly recommend this to any woman who lives in fear of opening the post, hides her shopping under the bed, or still shys away from the word 'pension'. Enjoy.

An excellent, humourous read, 08 Jan 2008
This book makes perfect January reading. Now you've promised yourself you will improve your finances this year this book will show you how to do it in a simple, humourous way.

Very Useful and Good Read, 01 Jan 2008
This is a very basic guide to finances for women. I really thought it was very clear, giving lots of practical tips and also highlighting a lot of the injustice of the way society is ripping off women who have babies, but also what you can do about it. There are sections on spending, saving, debt, pensions, investment, etc. It was honestly a very interesting read and I just wish I'd read it earlier.

Sorting out my finances is def a resolution for this year.

a guide to happiness, 14 Nov 2007
I'm a bloke and bought this on the pretence of buying it for my sis. Merryn is an accomplished and entertaining financial writer and editor of Moneyweek, a brilliant publication for amateur and professional investors alike. Obviously this book is aimed at women but it's also very easy read for those who are money-illiterate and much of the info is equally relevant to men. Also gives us blokes a startling insight on why the fairer sex habitually haemorrhage cash. Follow her advice and you will be well on your way to financial freedom.

Sound and timely advice, 20 Apr 2008
With economic forecasts sounding dire warnings, this book has come at just the right time. Sensible advice given in an amusing way, it doesn't take itself too seriously while still hammering home the main message: you can only spend it once! Help yourself to make better spending decisions. Better yet, buy it for someone who needs to budget better - perhaps they will get the hint.

This Little Book, 07 Oct 2008
I thought this little book was just one of those positive thinking books, get-rich-quick schemes that gave you false information on how to be happy and wealthy. O' how I was wrong! This little book changed my entire life from a bus driver who used to live in London to a wealthy business man now living in N/Hollywood. Growing up as a Christian, I 'always thought' that there was some secret that was removed from the Bible... and finally, this little book shows up on YouTube through a friend, so I decided to buy it from amazon.

Up till this very day I'm shocked at the powers this little book contains! After a few months of reading this little powerful book, my life seemed to be a rocket ship to the moon. It one-day all started at work, in the morning, I noticed a miserable bus driver who does'nt like making friends with anyone. I wanted to make friends with this guy a couple of years ago suddenly asking me with a smile if I would like to drink some coffee or tea from the vending machine in the canteen.

Well, I thought, that's strange! I thought nothing of it and went to do my duty. I found a wallet on the bus which contained nearly £300 and planned giving it in on my trip back to the garage but some guy turned up and identified it was his wallet, thanked me for finding it, and gave me £50 just like that! Then after that I noticed friends at work asking me if I needed something from the shop like a snack or a drink, e.t.c which no one ever did ask before.

This power I was feeling inside me started getting stronger as the days went by. Passengers all of a sudden started looking and saying hello to me with a smile on their faces in a certain way as if I had made their day somehow! I knew God was answering my prayers. And I knew definately that the time is now coming for my life to change. And guess what! Miracle after miracle after miracle was happening to me in my life...everything I seem to want just started showing up around me, everywhere I go, everyone around me just liked me for some reason.

Although it's called a secret behind the secret, I don't think it's a secret because a lot of people know about the secret - "The Law of Attraction", but you'll be surprised the amount of people world-wide that don't know about it. If they did know about this secret and became a student to the laws of the universe then everyone would be well-off as I am.

I don't know what the book will do for you because I believe that everyone carries his own cross, everyone has his own belief and Faith. But if you do buy this book and you become a student of Wallace D. Wattles, read this book every day. Keep it with you, even when you become very rich. Commit it to memory. Do not think about other systems and theories.

This powerful little book is intended for the men and women whose most pressing need is for money - for people who wish to get rich first and philosophize afterward. You MUST be ready to control the ancient secret powers. (within you!) I'll say this: This little book is about 'The Power of Prayer' and personally, I think the secret is thousands of years old. The object of all life is development. It is not possible to live a really complete or successful life unless one is rich.

There is a POWER which never fails to present opportunity to the Advancing Man who is moving in obedience to the Law. God cannot help helping you if you ACT IN A CERTAIN WAY. He must do so in order to help himself.

Another Great Book From The Author Of 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad', 31 Jul 2008
This was the second of this author's books that I've read, the first being 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad'. Once again Robert Kyosaki delivered and lived up to his reputation of being an easy-to-read writer and an author with much positive information to share. He's had tremendous success with his book series and deservedly so.

The ability to make money is pertinent to us all. Some of us want loads of it, others are happy to make a comfortable living at something they enjoy doing. Although no book is magically going to make everything happen for you and bring all the pieces into place without effort on the reader's part, this book certainly breaks down the business process and helps one clearly define what type of business (and therefore lifestyle) one desires.

If you enjoyed Robert Kyosaki's other books, then you will equally love this one.

How To Keep Your Man: And Keep Him For Good

Real Life Dramas - Volume One: 1

Darren G. Burton

If You Liked Rich Dad, Poor Dad, You Must Read This One!, 21 May 2004
Repetition is the source of mastery, and The Cash Flow Quadrant takes the excellent thinking in Rich Dad, Poor Dad and builds to another level of detail. This information will increase what you learned in Rich Dad, Poor Dad and help you begin the transformation from a salaried or self-employed person into a business owner and investor.

The definitions of these four quadrants are important. As an employee, you have a job. As a self-employed person, you own a job. As a business owner you have a system (such as a franchise like McDonald's) that produces cash flow for you and others work for you. As an investor, your money works for you. Rich people are getting more than 70 percent of their cash flow and income by having money work for them.

One of the strengths of the book is that it deals with the subtle psychological differences among people in the four different quadrants, especially on subjects like security and freedom. Kiyosaki and Lechter then do a nice job of helping you understand the difference between risky and taking risk. The latter is a good idea, when you know what you are doing, and the former is always to be avoided.

The book is not dogmatic, pointing out that good results can be reached in a variety of ways. You have to decide which ones are right for you. In general, you are encouraged to move from the employee and self-employed side for your income to the business owner and investor side. Then, take your cash flow and expand it into investments.

Another of the strengths of the book is to make it clearer what the advantages of income property are. In these home-purchasing crazed days, many are looking only to buy homes and missing good commercial property opportunities.

There are lots of good questions you can use to help frame your road through the cash flow quadant. At a minimum, you will become much more financially literate. With the help of the 7 steps here for making the necessary changes, you should begin to make the transition.

The book has a nice conversational tone that turns personal economics into common sense examples and principles.

The downside of any book about changing your life is that you can read it much faster than you can master the lessons and apply them. I suggest that you schedule time to reread this book over the next 10 years. That's the best way to check up on yourself and how you are doing.

I do recommend that you read Rich Dad, Poor Dad first. You'll get much more out of this book if you do that. Then you'll begin to see opportunities where others see difficulties. Good luck with fulfilling your goals!

Repetitive and simple . . . but that's what makes it good., 24 Oct 2001
Like the book before it and the ones following, this book is written in a very simple and repetitive fashion. Often the same quotes and statements are reused just pages apart. However, I believe that's exactly what makes it good, for the simple reason that getting rich is not simple, is a long process, and with no sensible short cuts. It requires a solid foundation based on the right sort of intelligence - and that's what this series of books drums into the reader. Furthermore, the fact that there is simply so much to read (if you read the series), gives you the opportunity to digest all the lessons before leaping into action with too much hast.

Outstanding, 01 Jun 2001
I have the book & the tape set. The tape is constantly on in my car, I have probably heard it over 20 times & i still pick up some thing new each time I listen. A MUST HAVE for anyone wanting to be financialy free.

If you want more money, read this book, 28 Feb 2001
A fine book that changes the way you think about money. The text can get a little repetetive at times, but don't let that put you off. There's a lot more meat in this book than in his previous offerring, 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad'.

I have the book & the tape set. The tape is constantly on in my car, I have probably heard it over 20 times & i still pick up some thing new each time I listen. A MUST HAVE for anyone wanting to be financialy free.

If you want more money, read this book, 28 Feb 2001
A fine book that changes the way you think about money. The text can get a little repetetive at times, but don't let that put you off. There's a lot more meat in this book than in his previous offerring, 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad'.

Nothing magic here, 10 Oct 2008
Having briefly read through the book I am sending it back. It is very basic and out of date. He could have focused on good solid strategies that are timeless. I have yet to see Simon talk, but I do look forward to it as I have heard and read a lot about him. Just thought the book was a bit thin, literally and figuratively.

No Magic Here, 27 Aug 2008
I keep hearing how great Simon is. He might be, but this book hardly reveals anything about profiting from property, except, "Come on my course to find out".

Glad I got it through the library.

The Ron Seal of Property Investing, Simon does what he say's on the tin!, 14 Aug 2008
Simon walks-the-walk and talks-the-talk in his book, sharing with you the reader, real time property investment tips, that when put into practice - deliver results.

When we buy any 'how to' book, the motivation to click 'add to basket' can often come from the desire to get to where we want to be, by looking for a quick fix to get us away from where we are to where we want to be.

There are no short-cuts to success, you can't put in 50% and expect to get 100% in return! However, every once in a while, there comes a sharing of experience and knowledge that makes us do things that make a difference to our lives.

Property Magic will provide you with real time examples and shared knowledge and experience from investing in the property market. All this from a man who has more energy and enthusiasm than any other I have met, Simon has an abundance mentality - and there are some real gems to be discovered in his book.

If you ever get the chance to attend one of the many speaking seminars that Simon delivers at The Property Investor Show - do so, it'll be the best £7 investment of your time & money you'll ever make. In addition, he'll bring to life every page of Property Magic, so that when you go back and revisit it, and you will revisit it! You'll never look at it in the same light ever again.

Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience, 09 Apr 2008
This book makes buying property seem very straightforward, and total finacial sense. It's full of practical advice and gave me the enthusiasm and the knowledge to go and buy property.
I have recommended it to my 4 children. After reading the intro my 12 year old has asked for his own copy. (Which he will be paying for).
Hopefully it will not be too long before this book has helped me to increase my portfolio and helped to get each of my kids onto the property ladder.

Not only THE economics text..., 22 Jun 2007
This book provided the foundation for most economic policy (in the west at least) through the middle of the 20th century, and as such must be considered among the most important books ever published. It will show the reader why certain decisions were taken, and how we got to where we are. Even if you don't agree with Keynes' theories this is an indispensable guide for anyone who wants to understand government economic policy.

Beyond his importance as an economist however, Keynes was a member of the Bloomsbury group of artists and Bohemians, and that is reflected in his writing. This is no novel, but there are few better written economic texts.

In the long-run, we are all dead so read this book, 11 Jun 2004
This book, by the farther of modern macroeconomics, is one of the most influential economic texts to date. Not only did it form the basis of the post-war consensus, in the UK, but also in Europe and Northern America.

This book, however, is worth a read in its own right. This will enable anyone to understand the budget with much more ease. Also if anyone is doing a course in Economics or Political Economy, it comes highly recommended.

The Bible of Economics, 07 May 2004
It is on this book that all subsequent economic has either been based, or has been compared to.
As a student of economics, this book is a MUST read, fully explaining the theories of Aggregate Demand and it's effects (which Classical economists will tend to ignore) and how to influence this through the AD equation.
For the average reader, this book will explain much of the world around you, and will make budget speeches make much more sense.
All together, possibly one of the most important economic books of all time, still pertinent and holding still truer as the current gov't holds a Keynesian course on the economy whilst it flourishes.

The best piece of Economic literature of all time, 31 Jan 2002
Although this book is slightly aged after the abolition of hereditary peers and devolution for Scotland and Wales, it is still worth reading for it's excellent and comprehensive critique of New Right Policy. The book starts with how the Conservatives fused Neo liberal thought with popular policies, creating an electoral machine which won four general elections in a row. It talks about how the Conservatives managed to manipulate the uncodified British constitution to great effect during the 1930's and 1940's.

It simultaneously charts the crisis among the British Left, and the European Left in general, and how the New Labour experiment attempted to deal with this. The main thrust of the book is that the last twenty odd years have been an experiment in free market economics which have had serious effects on social cohesion, and given us the lowest paid workforce, yet the highest paid executives in Europe.

The basis of modern economic debate, 02 May 1999
While I tend towards the opposing view of Classical economics, Keynesian economics cannot easily be argued away. Keynes' theories are the foundation of our present Federal Reserve system and remain the basis for much of modern economic thought. Definitely a must-read for any aspiring economist.

The first unscary book about money, 14 Jan 2008
This book reads at such a pace that you forget it's all about the world's worst subject: finance. I picked it up with dread, thinking it would deliver horrible and impossible lectures about how to earn and save money. Instead, the writing and advice are totally down-to-earth and (almost always) simple to follow. A brilliant book for New Year resolutions.

Humourous And Helpful, 08 Jan 2008
I am hopeless with money, so feel it obvious this book was written purely to assist me with my day to day life! A great book that makes the boring interesting, and makes the complicated easy to understand. I would highly recommend this to any woman who lives in fear of opening the post, hides her shopping under the bed, or still shys away from the word 'pension'. Enjoy.

An excellent, humourous read, 08 Jan 2008
This book makes perfect January reading. Now you've promised yourself you will improve your finances this year this book will show you how to do it in a simple, humourous way.

Very Useful and Good Read, 01 Jan 2008
This is a very basic guide to finances for women. I really thought it was very clear, giving lots of practical tips and also highlighting a lot of the injustice of the way society is ripping off women who have babies, but also what you can do about it. There are sections on spending, saving, debt, pensions, investment, etc. It was honestly a very interesting read and I just wish I'd read it earlier.

Sorting out my finances is def a resolution for this year.

a guide to happiness, 14 Nov 2007
I'm a bloke and bought this on the pretence of buying it for my sis. Merryn is an accomplished and entertaining financial writer and editor of Moneyweek, a brilliant publication for amateur and professional investors alike. Obviously this book is aimed at women but it's also very easy read for those who are money-illiterate and much of the info is equally relevant to men. Also gives us blokes a startling insight on why the fairer sex habitually haemorrhage cash. Follow her advice and you will be well on your way to financial freedom.

Sound and timely advice, 20 Apr 2008
With economic forecasts sounding dire warnings, this book has come at just the right time. Sensible advice given in an amusing way, it doesn't take itself too seriously while still hammering home the main message: you can only spend it once! Help yourself to make better spending decisions. Better yet, buy it for someone who needs to budget better - perhaps they will get the hint.

This Little Book, 07 Oct 2008
I thought this little book was just one of those positive thinking books, get-rich-quick schemes that gave you false information on how to be happy and wealthy. O' how I was wrong! This little book changed my entire life from a bus driver who used to live in London to a wealthy business man now living in N/Hollywood. Growing up as a Christian, I 'always thought' that there was some secret that was removed from the Bible... and finally, this little book shows up on YouTube through a friend, so I decided to buy it from amazon.

Up till this very day I'm shocked at the powers this little book contains! After a few months of reading this little powerful book, my life seemed to be a rocket ship to the moon. It one-day all started at work, in the morning, I noticed a miserable bus driver who does'nt like making friends with anyone. I wanted to make friends with this guy a couple of years ago suddenly asking me with a smile if I would like to drink some coffee or tea from the vending machine in the canteen.

Well, I thought, that's strange! I thought nothing of it and went to do my duty. I found a wallet on the bus which contained nearly £300 and planned giving it in on my trip back to the garage but some guy turned up and identified it was his wallet, thanked me for finding it, and gave me £50 just like that! Then after that I noticed friends at work asking me if I needed something from the shop like a snack or a drink, e.t.c which no one ever did ask before.

This power I was feeling inside me started getting stronger as the days went by. Passengers all of a sudden started looking and saying hello to me with a smile on their faces in a certain way as if I had made their day somehow! I knew God was answering my prayers. And I knew definately that the time is now coming for my life to change. And guess what! Miracle after miracle after miracle was happening to me in my life...everything I seem to want just started showing up around me, everywhere I go, everyone around me just liked me for some reason.

Although it's called a secret behind the secret, I don't think it's a secret because a lot of people know about the secret - "The Law of Attraction", but you'll be surprised the amount of people world-wide that don't know about it. If they did know about this secret and became a student to the laws of the universe then everyone would be well-off as I am.

I don't know what the book will do for you because I believe that everyone carries his own cross, everyone has his own belief and Faith. But if you do buy this book and you become a student of Wallace D. Wattles, read this book every day. Keep it with you, even when you become very rich. Commit it to memory. Do not think about other systems and theories.

This powerful little book is intended for the men and women whose most pressing need is for money - for people who wish to get rich first and philosophize afterward. You MUST be ready to control the ancient secret powers. (within you!) I'll say this: This little book is about 'The Power of Prayer' and personally, I think the secret is thousands of years old. The object of all life is development. It is not possible to live a really complete or successful life unless one is rich.

There is a POWER which never fails to present opportunity to the Advancing Man who is moving in obedience to the Law. God cannot help helping you if you ACT IN A CERTAIN WAY. He must do so in order to help himself.

Another Great Book From The Author Of 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad', 31 Jul 2008
This was the second of this author's books that I've read, the first being 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad'. Once again Robert Kyosaki delivered and lived up to his reputation of being an easy-to-read writer and an author with much positive information to share. He's had tremendous success with his book series and deservedly so.

The ability to make money is pertinent to us all. Some of us want loads of it, others are happy to make a comfortable living at something they enjoy doing. Although no book is magically going to make everything happen for you and bring all the pieces into place without effort on the reader's part, this book certainly breaks down the business process and helps one clearly define what type of business (and therefore lifestyle) one desires.

If you enjoyed Robert Kyosaki's other books, then you will equally love this one.

How To Keep Your Man: And Keep Him For Good

Real Life Dramas - Volume One: 1

Darren G. Burton

If You Liked Rich Dad, Poor Dad, You Must Read This One!, 21 May 2004
Repetition is the source of mastery, and The Cash Flow Quadrant takes the excellent thinking in Rich Dad, Poor Dad and builds to another level of detail. This information will increase what you learned in Rich Dad, Poor Dad and help you begin the transformation from a salaried or self-employed person into a business owner and investor.

The definitions of these four quadrants are important. As an employee, you have a job. As a self-employed person, you own a job. As a business owner you have a system (such as a franchise like McDonald's) that produces cash flow for you and others work for you. As an investor, your money works for you. Rich people are getting more than 70 percent of their cash flow and income by having money work for them.

One of the strengths of the book is that it deals with the subtle psychological differences among people in the four different quadrants, especially on subjects like security and freedom. Kiyosaki and Lechter then do a nice job of helping you understand the difference between risky and taking risk. The latter is a good idea, when you know what you are doing, and the former is always to be avoided.

The book is not dogmatic, pointing out that good results can be reached in a variety of ways. You have to decide which ones are right for you. In general, you are encouraged to move from the employee and self-employed side for your income to the business owner and investor side. Then, take your cash flow and expand it into investments.

Another of the strengths of the book is to make it clearer what the advantages of income property are. In these home-purchasing crazed days, many are looking only to buy homes and missing good commercial property opportunities.

There are lots of good questions you can use to help frame your road through the cash flow quadant. At a minimum, you will become much more financially literate. With the help of the 7 steps here for making the necessary changes, you should begin to make the transition.

The book has a nice conversational tone that turns personal economics into common sense examples and principles.

The downside of any book about changing your life is that you can read it much faster than you can master the lessons and apply them. I suggest that you schedule time to reread this book over the next 10 years. That's the best way to check up on yourself and how you are doing.

I do recommend that you read Rich Dad, Poor Dad first. You'll get much more out of this book if you do that. Then you'll begin to see opportunities where others see difficulties. Good luck with fulfilling your goals!

Repetitive and simple . . . but that's what makes it good., 24 Oct 2001
Like the book before it and the ones following, this book is written in a very simple and repetitive fashion. Often the same quotes and statements are reused just pages apart. However, I believe that's exactly what makes it good, for the simple reason that getting rich is not simple, is a long process, and with no sensible short cuts. It requires a solid foundation based on the right sort of intelligence - and that's what this series of books drums into the reader. Furthermore, the fact that there is simply so much to read (if you read the series), gives you the opportunity to digest all the lessons before leaping into action with too much hast.
