Rating: Summary: Rubin & Gold, Ministers of the Republic of Tea Review: "Success @ Life" is a powerful motivational tool, with a "matter-of-fact" style of writing makes it a pleasure to read.

This is a book of action. This is an excellent, short and concise, to-the-point book that motivates us to follow our dreams. It's a jump-start for your stalled spirit. Whether you believe in the Zen or not, you should read the "Success @ Life". It does show that though reaching for your dream is hard work, it will also be fun, rewarding, and revealing.

Rating: Summary: Glad I read this book Review: I was forced to read this book and write an online review about it by Ron Rubin himself. Not unlike most silver spoon-fed men, he considers himself to be a lot more important and wise than he actually is. If you happen to be one of the unfortuante few who read this thing, you'll likely find that the guy is just a cheap salesman who happened to be born into money. Congrats, Ron! Thanks for the advice!
Rating: Summary: TROT Review: Ron and Stuart have documented their pathway to success in terms of the necessary ingredients and mindset to living life well and to its fullest. The book is written with obvious pleasure and sincerity and has very positive, forward thinking suggestions for entrepreneurs and also for those of you who do not think you are entrepreneurs.

Rating: Summary: Finding balance in your life Review: Success@Life, a fast, easy, humorous read, explains how to catch and live your dreams by finding your passion in life.

A truly refreshing new look at life.
