From Booklist

The author, with Wall Street credentials and seminary background, offers a view of money based on the Christian principles of legendary money manager Sir John M. Templeton. We learn of Templeton's dual qualities of investment genius and Christian convictions, his view on ethics in business, and his sense of true success, which includes spiritual success. The book presents three lessons: an optimistic overview of our political economy, advice about personal finance, and a call for hope in the future. An admitted conservative, the author challenges many notable religious and political figures in the U.S. whom he considers an embarrassment to true conservative beliefs. His money-management advice covers a broad range of issues, including investment options and planning tips for savings. The book puts a spiritual framework around the investment business and offers an interesting perspective on controversial people and issues.

The Ten Golden Rules could be summarized as four : 1.)Realism - no optimism or pessimism to the economical and political facts. 2.)Diversification - a right mix of different financial securities. 3.)Patience - long-term view can help you pass those emotional highs or lows happened in the market. 4.)Investing for good - love, giving and faith to God. Only having spiritual and ethical foundations, you can have a long-term success.

Great book to keep reminding you of the purpouse of temporary debt and keeping off the credit card cycle. Focus, goals and fine tuning your retirement progam. Don't rely on the government to take care of you, take control with author's tips.

1.0 out of 5 stars Feel good book, not an investment book, March 29, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Ten Golden Rules for Financial Success (Paperback)

I heard the author on public radio. He talked about Sir John Templeton, who I admire. This wasn't a book about how to invest like Sir John -- (i.e., how to examine a company both financially and socially). You won't find a balance sheet, income statement, or P/E ratio anywhere in this book. But, if you are looking for a feel good book, that accomplishes little in helping you towards becoming a more socially responsible investor, then perhaps it suits your needs.
