5.0 out of 5 stars The Best of Its Type, October 16, 1998

This is not "How to Make a Lebenty-Leben Billion Dollars By Tomorrow Morning at 9:00 am" What it is, however, is an intelligent approach towards achieving success. Note that Success according to Scheele is not equal to making a lot of money. If you agree, buy it!
