5.0 out of 5 stars Wake Up the Financial Genius within YOU, April 20, 2002

This was the first real estate book I ever bought. The example of a penny a day doubled every day or a $1,000 a day for 30 days I thought, at the time was far fetched and corny.Using MARKS techniques, I went from 0 credit to over a $100,000 in credit and 0 net worth to $500,000 in under two years time (in 1970's $$$)The techniques still work today. I also recommend The Courage To Be Rich, the one by Mark not Suze Orman.The fact that Suze Orman would copy a title from Mark's Book should tell you the impact that Mr. Haroldsen hadon the fincially savvy.

5.0 out of 5 stars The beginning of my growth in the Real Estate world, July 29, 2001

Several years ago I was given this book by a friend. I was searching for a way to make money. This book awoke in me tons of ideas and possibilities. I have bought several properties using the ideas that I gleaned from this book. Many people told me it was just nonsense and that it could not be done. These people included family, friends, my attorney and my boss.That was in 1985. Since that time I have given this book as a gift to many of my friends and customers. Some have used it while others have not. I can tell you I have gone from selling cars to owning two personal homes, several rentals and my own mortgage company, Real Estate Company, a Title company and I'm just putting together a constuction company. The book is dated based on pricing but the concepts are current. In all honesty none of the critics I had in the begining make enough money to pay my taxes. I was looking for a recent copy of this book in order to locate the author. While I was here I thought I would send out a ray of hope to those with a dream. PS: another book I found helpful is "The Magic of Thinking Big" by David J. Schwartz

Whatever you believe that you are, you do what that represents, which manifests its self in the physical reality.

This is also true for money management. Each time that I read this book, I have a light bulb moment. And I know that I am in the process of becoming financially savvy. I also realize, as I read this book, along with Glinda Bridgforth's, "Girl, Get Your Money Straight," that I am giving myself the financial intelligence that I lost as a child.

This book is simple, enlightening, and helpful in making my money work harder than I work.

I find myself saying to myself, as I read this book, "Okay. Yep! I can do that. And now I understand more about how the rich think."

Find and read this book to give yourself financial peace of mind.
