... books are important in that they give you the reasoning behind the statements.. you might think that the statements are important but actually, (like this statement I am making now) it is the reasoning behind it that is important...
... and to write the reasoning behind what I just said... hahaha... that would take an article... at least....

they can claim all the bullshits they wrote in there were their ways to get rich as they claimed to be a living example.Originally posted by constancebay:Yup. But the writers of these self help books are all very rich and successful. They are a living testimony to the principles that they write
but how true is that? hmm...
if im rich, i also can write a bunch of bullshits and claim that was how i got rich then sit back and collect royalties from people who treat my bullshits as holy words.
oh... im not discrediting those books or what la... just that there are a lot more to it than in those books on how to get rich. a lot of factors and considerations to take care of too. -
Money isn't everything. I'd rather do something I love for a living and be poor than be rich and work a job I hate.

Just be happy la...
No need to be rich also can... -
".........Some readers have said that if I am going to criticize KiyosakiÂ’s book, I must offer a version of how to better yourself that does not have the flaws of Rich Dad Poor Dad. No problem. That would be my book Succeeding."Originally posted by nonameguy:

It may seem common sense but many of us lack it and does have the will power to act with common sense. -

He portrays a very innocent view of how investments work. -
That's precisely what the book is arguing against - work for a job you hate.Originally posted by jondizzle foshizzle:Money isn't everything. I'd rather do something I love for a living and be poor than be rich and work a job I hate.
In fact, the author argues that we should let money work for us, not the other way round. -
How come? Hasn't he been there and done that?Originally posted by deathbait:He portrays a very innocent view of how investments work. -
You believe the story told by Napolean Hill or not?Originally posted by BeautifulBetty:Nothing new. Dale Carnegie wrote that before. Napolean Hill wrote that before. Anthony Robbins wrote that too. Only difference is they phrase it differently but meanings boil down to same same

You mean the sales of his book to the gullible?Originally posted by Icemoon:yup .. at least he has the track record to prove it. -
nope .. he is a multi-millionaire.Originally posted by fymk:You mean the sales of his book to the gullible?
furthermore he keeps on emphasizing that all of it is his effort. Whereas his friend Mike was born with a silver spoon, he had no spoon as his dad was the poor dad. -
Well. He CLAIMS to have made alot of money before he wrote the book. He also claims to come from a poor family. Unfortunately, he has thus far refused to reveal any details of any of his claims.Originally posted by Icemoon:How come? Hasn't he been there and done that?
Basically, he's like Andrew.
