One Minute Millionaire


The One minute Millionaire is one the best books I've ever read. Written by Mark Victor Hansen and Real-estate guru Robert Allen. It tells the story about Michlle, a Widowed mother whose life is troubled. She needs to raise One million dollar in just 90 days or she will lose custody of her children. An incredible story that could happen to all of us. Coupled with the story is a some pratical advice to achieve financial success. Self development and awardness of the best of each and everyone of us.

A lot of quotes are in the aligment of "the Secret" by Rhonda Byrne. It's just a pleasure to read it. I myself purposed it to my partners to read it. If someone asks me, well I would like to be thaught how to be rich, than my first question is: for what purpose? To be rich is to be responsable, money needs to be adored like your partner in life. If you waist your money than money will waist you! besides my opinion is that the first statment of being rich is to be satisfied with the things you allready have. "A richman is the one who is satisfied with the things he has", better I quote one of the passages in the book: "In 1870, 27 years old Russel H. Conwell was serving as an international correspondent for the American Traveler, a weekly journal published in Boston. On assigment, he was riding in a camel caravan along the valley between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in Mesopotamia when he heard his Arab guide weave tales to entertain his American tourists. The young Conwell was deeply impressed by a legend about a prosperous Persian farmer, Ali Hafed. Lured by the stories of a Buddhist priest, Ali Hafed deserted his own fruitful farm to search for immense wealth in mythical diamond fields. Far and wide Ali Hafed roamed footsore and weary. Youth and wealth disappeared, and he died far from home, an old and disillusioned pauper.

Not long afterward, the guide related, acres of fabulous diamonds were found on Ali Hafed's own land." The story can be compared with real stories about people that searched for fortune elsewere and found it in their own backyard. Money should appreciated, loved.
I advice you to read this book and you will be more enlightened about the way you have to deal with money.
