Her first book "Lion don't need to roar" is a very fine book. However, all her other books (CEO, 100K, etc) are just pure fluff. It is very apparent that she just gathered information from here and there and paste them together as her work. Obviously, she has run out of new things to write about. Instead of havign some real stuff to talk about as in her first book, it seems like she is really now writing only for the money. Very superficial. Don't waste your money.

The dust cover claims this book is worth its weight in gold. Its last chapter, which outlines the 20 steps to earning $100,000 a year, could well make it so. If you buy the book, read the final chapter first. D.A. Benton’s 20 steps are clear and easy to follow. Once you know them, the rest of the book provides excellent supporting information. Benton shows examples of how specific individuals (many of them high-profile celebrities and athletes) used each step to achieve success. This book offers no get-rich-quick schemes. The author advocates a logical, methodical approach to making $100,000 per year. She is so confident that she makes a guarantee: If you put maximum effort into all 20 steps, you will become a member of the $100,000 Club. We [...] recommend this book to anyone interested in making a six-figure income.

There were several sections where I wished I had known these things six years ago when I obtained my first real job after school. Hopefully, it's not too late :-) Being an engineer, I found the straightforward advise on "soft" skills (such as relationship building) something I could and already am usefully applying.

Debra documented the characteristics of people in the $100K club very well. It is not (supposed to be)a how to book, but a guide to ensure you are on the path to becoming a six figure earner.

It also serves as a reference and reminder about the things you know you need to do, but do not have someone challenging you to acheive. Debra is able to coach the reader, as if she is working one-on-one with them.

I am a real person, and a simple reader. Mentioning the above is simply to claim the authenticity of my review, not some made up or conspired opinion or expression, but a true and genuine review. This is one of the greatest and best books I ever read by far, especially in it's own category. What it's contents cover and how the whole book is put together is a marvelous and tremendous work. I am only about half way through the book and it's definitely my mental coach, encouragement, inspiration, motivation, and secret weapon of all things, already. Some or perhaps many of the ideas in the book are not new inventions, but how the author was able to put everything together in such an excellently constructed order, along with her own professional knowledge, and wisdom surely amazes me. Never before have I heard of D. A. Benton But I have now a great admiration for her and started search all the books she's written. I wouldn't want my competitors at work know about this book but worse is to see all the disgusting reviews written by people who do not have an appreciation for great work. And others being misleaded by those reviews. That's the reason I had to write this. That's how good this book is.

As an avid reader of D.A. Benton's business books, I must give this latest one high marks once again. It's evident by the way Benton writes that she has been successful in her professional and personal life and wants to share her experience and research with those of us readers who are on and in search of that same path. I found the book realistic, engaging, funny, and full of information that inspires me to pursue my non-traditional path of making more money outside the corporate business world.

I found the chapters on Following Your Heart & Soul along with Earning $100,000 at Home or On Your Own to be very insightful. With so much dread and negativity in the world, it's refreshing to read a book that lends so much hope for complete happiness and success in life.

I disagree with some of the other reviewers who said this tape is total trash. It is good for young people just getting into the career market, because it gives practical information to help make sure you are even aiming in the right direction for your goals. It helps give a broad perspective on your career as a whole, not "I just graduated now I have to use this degree somehow." Overall, I say it is a decent book, but I can do without her philosophical digressions at the beginning of the tape about how society tries to make us think money is evil.

THIS BOOK IS FULL OF FLUFF. EXTREMELY VAGUE. NO SUBSTANCE; NO HARD FACTS AND NO SURE FIRE WAY TO SECURE THE $100,000 JOB. THE ONLY PERSON ACHIEVING $100,000 WITH THIS BOOK IS MS. DEBRA A. BENTON.

The book has helped me a lot and I am not even done with reading it...its not a how to book...more like how to adjust your tude book! These negative reviews are just fluff...the book is now 1cent...do your life some good and freaking buy it!!!

This is the way it is done. Debra Benton did it...so can we.
