Rating: Summary: This is by far the best and simplest personal finance book. Review: This book is entertaining and easy to read, just as the laws of personal finance are very simple and easy to understand. This book has changed my life completely and I hope that you will get the same benefit from reading it that I have. It is a shame that this information is not more common in America and the rest of the World.
Rating: Summary: A great gift book Review: A great gift book for family and friends. Especially of benefit to high school and college students. An excellent and uncomplicated review of the concepts of personal finance. The reader will be inspired to review a second book regarding "modern" financial tools described in the book such as reviewed in "Get A Financial Life" or "Personal Finance for Dummies". Its current day counterpart is "The Wealthy Barber".
Rating: Summary: great book Review: This little book really lays down the basic concepts of disciplined wealth building. A real eye-opener.
Rating: Summary: Uplifting Review: I first picked up this book a couple of years ago when I was employed as a stock broking analyst in Kuala Lumpur. I was making excellent money but was chafing from the shackles of a job I had begun to hate. I found Clason's book tucked away in a corner of a bookshop near the office. Even though I was making more money than ever before, my expenses were going through the roof. The book helped me get my feet back on the ground. If you need help in finances, buy it. I reread it every six months.
Rating: Summary: Read ye this book, and make thy gold multiply! Review: Written as a parable, Clason captures the essence of personal finance in a way seldom (never) seen before. To read this book is to understand the principles of compound interest, financial planning and personal wealth. Even if you never read another "financial" book again, the principles found in this little tale would last you a lifetime.
Rating: Summary: This is a great book Review: I read this book a few years back. The principals are sound, and straightforward.
Rating: Summary: As long as you use money, this book is a must. Review: This is an outstanding book about money management. The five laws of gold are magic laws that can prevent or even cure you from financial problems whatever your financial status are and lead you to a prosperous life thereafter. The ideas in this book are described in a story- talling style so it is easily understood and functionally adaptable to real life situations. As long as you use money, this book is a must. After you finish this book and apply its content to your life you will be, as I have experienced, endowed with the greatest gift from our ancestors.
Rating: Summary: Awesome! Review: This book is amazing and I recommend it to anyone. It only took me one night to finish. What's more
is the advice contained in the book is what I'll use for the rest of my life. In my opinion it's
worth far more than 5 bucks...
Rating: Summary: It speaks to the soul. Review: In our day of easy credit this book is needed.
It's amazing that it was first published so
long ago. It really made me think about what
was important and long term goals. I keep
re-reading this book and finding new things.
It is one of my all time favorites. Please!
Please give it to your teenagers to read.
Rating: Summary: Required Reading Review: I have just finished this book and I cannot believe what I just read. It has been the best financial advice that I have ever received. This book should be required reading for all high school students as they prepare for the working world. I would have been much better off now if I would have read this book then and applied these principles
