More motivational than technical,
By
This review is from: Breaking The Money Barriers (Paperback)
On the back cover of this book, the author promises that you'll learn many things, including:"How to conquer fear once and for all." Actually, his advice on this point basically amounts to: You should conquer your fear. The "how" is not specified--it is assumed that once you recognize the importance of conquering your fear, you'll just do it on your own. "How to set up a part-time home business for increased income." Again, the emphasis is not on the HOW, but on the fact that you SHOULD start such a business. Practical information is limited to: You should devise a product, and then find a way to market it. "A simple ancient exercise to discover your life-purpose." This chapter amounts to little more than an exhortation to write down what you think your life-purpose is. The rest of the book proceeds along similar lines. If you need motivation, perhaps this book will provide a kick in the pants. If you're already motivated, and what you really need are concrete details on HOW to navigate the world of business and achieve your goals, then you may find this book severely lacking,

Not worth it,
By A Customer
This review is from: Breaking The Money Barriers (Paperback)
This book is all over the map, alternating between motivational gibberish ("Don't EVER give up!"), basic financial theory ("Spend less than you earn") and dangerous advice ("Make your money grow at least 20% monthly"). Read "The Richest Man in Babylon" instead. It's cheaper and it has better advice.

Each and every person on this earth should read this book!,
By Doreen Sousa (Georgia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Breaking The Money Barriers (Paperback)
Dr. Duckett has taken the main ingredients on "How to live a happy and prosperous life" and has broken it down into very easy steps. He dispenses real hope to each reader and supports it with a life-long plan that works! It has truly changed my life! Very simple and fast reading! He even carries the reader through an exercise on finding your own life's purpose! It should probably be called "Breaking LIFE'S Barriers For Better Living" because it takes you way beyond just your finances. Don't pass this one up - you will want to read it over and over again and share it with your loved-ones right away! I am giving this as an additional holiday gift to every member of my family!

MORE THAN JUST MOTIVATION--I made over $50,000 in 90 days,
By Abigall Nordeni (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Breaking The Money Barriers (Paperback)
I almost didn't buy "Breaking The Money Barriers" based on a few bad reviews. After reading the book and applying the clear and easy to understand steps, I made over $50,000 in 90 days. I continue to use Dr. Duckett's easy to understand system of wealth accumulation and plan to retire within the next few years. Before reading this book, all I could hope to do was receive Social Security someday. Now, I'll have all the money I need for the rest of my life.I have read numerous motivational books and financial books. I have been a motivational seminar junkie but this information is waaaaaay beyond hype or motivation. Using Dr. Duckett's simple to apply formulas, I have increased my income SUBSTANTIALLY and increased my overall happiness in life. TO THOSE WHO HAD SOMETHING NEGATIVE TO SAY ABOUT THE SECTION ON FEAR--I HAVE ONE THING TO SAY, "Reread that section. It has helped me to overcome some of my fears I've been dealing with for almost 60 years. The only reason someone would have anything bad to say about this book would be if that person was atheist. Dr. Duckett does mention God in it and some people are very offended these days by a person being brave enough to express their spirituality. Do youreself a favor. Buy this book and reread it to your loved ones. It will help to create a brighter financial future and happier life for anyone who is exposed to this unusual approach to wealth accumulation. I don't know this Dr. Duckett but I sure would like to meet him one day. Until that day comes all I can say is thank you God for this information--just in the nick-of-time.

TOO BASIC!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Breaking The Money Barriers (Paperback)
If you are in High School or know very little about Successor Financial Principles, then this book might be for you. Otherwise for anyone else,this is nothing more than basic motivational pap that can be found in thousands of other self-help books. NOT WORTH IT!

THE GREATEST BOOK ON MONEY ACCUMULATION I'VE EVER READ!!,
By Mark Donegan (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Breaking The Money Barriers (Paperback)
I've read many books over the years on wealth accumulation, financial planning, money management, and a number of other topics pertaining to money. I'VE NEVER READ ANYTHING SO POWERFUL AS "BREAKING THE MONEY BARRIERS" IN MY LIFE!!! I almost didn't buy it based on a couple of negative reviews, but a friend of mine told me this book is a "must read". Well, I read it and it has changed my life and finances. When the other books gave me a direction, "Breaking The Money Barriers" filled in all the pieces for me. I would strongly urge everyone to read and benefit from the wealth of knowledge this author has to share.
