The One Minute Millionaire: The Enlightened Way to Wealth

Great framing with non fiction and fiction intertwined. First time I read a book like this, but really enjoyed the storyline, plot, and teaching throughout!

You've heard about both these guys and you've probably read one of their books. Robert Allen of "No Money Down" fame and Mark Victor Hansen co-creator of the 80-million plus book phenomenon "Chicken Soup for [insert the blank] Soul."These two have teamed up for quite an unusual book. The One Minute Millionaire is actually two books in one. The left side pages give you the standard "HOW TO" book spiel and the right side pages offer up a heart-warming, but instructional story of a mother named Michelle.The "Michelle" story takes you through the sudden death of her husband and how her in-laws seek and get custody of her children. Over the course of a few weeks Michelle loses her home and is forced to move away to support herself. She all but gives up on the chance of getting her kids back until she meets her millionaire mentor. After a brief tutoring session with Sam, Michelle decides to make a bet with her father-in-law. The bet: she needs to earn a million bucks in 90 days or lose her children forever.Yep, you read that right a cool million in 90 days or she loses visitation rights. Talk about getting leverage on yourself! The rest of the story is fast-paced and you can't help but get caught up in the ups and downs of Michelle's progress toward the million bucks. The story was a bit unbelievable (a million bucks in 90 days!), but maybe not if you think about all those Internet ads promising instant riches <grin>. In all seriousness, the motivational story, complete with rapid-fire techniques for building a business and getting into real estate is worth the money you'll pay for the book.But...we're not talking about just one book. This is two books in one! If you're very familiar with Robert Allen's books, most of the material in the "How To" portion of the book (the left-side pages) will not be new, but it reinforces his methods and techniques of building a business, buying real estate and using the power of the Internet to get rich. While Michelle is able to achieve millionaire status in 90 days, don't expect to do the same. The How To portion of the book is good, but doesn't contain too many specifics. I believe the intention of the authors was to focus on exposing the mindset of millionaires, not to discuss the specific steps. That aside, you can definitely put the techniques in this book into practice in real life. I myself started the very day I finished reading the book!Bottom Line: A quick read that is both motivational and filled with enough ideas to get your head spinning toward riches, but the book isn't just about getting rich monetarily. It teaches you the importance of helping others and giving back to charities and your community. An important lesson indeed.This book makes my Top 15 book list.fabman...Read to Exceed your Limits

I bought this book on a whim and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. The decision became even more enjoyable due to the fact that this is actually two books in one - an enjoyable novel based on a womans struggle to earn $1,000,000 in 90 days combined with a book on how to invest properly in and for your own future. It's well written, thought provoking and a light read - you won't feel burdened reading The One Minute Millionaire.The book as a whole follows the basic premise of "What if you invested $1 a day for the next 60 years... what would it be worth?" All too often we forget the value of money itself. Not only do we forget the value of money,from childhood, onwards we are often told "money is evil" and "the pursuit of money is greed". The One Minute Millionaire teaches us that money is not evil but is a resource that we can all use to make the lives of those around us better. It's only when we don't share the wealth that money becomes "evil".I enjoyed every moment of this book and after having read it felt inspired enough to go and pursue my own financial goals. I've cut back on "silly" expenditures (€140 per month), have started my own web based business and started saving money properly. I'm amazed at how this book made me look at my financial life.I can't recommend The One Minute Millionaire enough. It can help people who spend with no thought (money can burn a hole in my pocket if I don't spend it) to add structure to our lives. For those who are financially better off it can teach you that "giving more is getting more".Enjoy and I hope you benefit from reading this book as much as I did.Niall Roche

I listened to the cd version years ago. It belonged to the library, so time was limited and I didn't get a chance to listen to all the cds, I believe it was 9 cds, double-sided. So when I saw that it was available in book form on amazon, I decided to buy it.I have to be honest and say that I didn't read the entire book, as its not necessary to get the point the author is making; that it is more easy to come up with million dollar ideas than one thinks, as many people do every minute of the day. How to implement them and bring forth the riches is another thing. The book teaches you how to do this; how to come up with million dollar ideas, implement them and be successful.DeliveryThe book wasn't that secured in the package, and was damaged on delivery. There was a large hole in it as if someone actually put their finger through the plastic and produced a hole, then tugged on it until the plastic was stretched wide enough for them to see what was inside. LOL :). That was the impression I got when I saw a huge hole in the plastic shipping bag. And there was a lot of other tiny holes in the bag. Can't say the seller shipped it this way, as it could have been damaged through the P.O. But the book wasn't damaged, beside a small bend on the corner. Maybe the seller should have wrapped the book in cardboard to protect the edges since they shipped it in a plastic shipping bag.But not really complaining. It was a cheap buy, and I'm happy with the purchase.

I buy this book for anyone who tells me they want to enhance their lives. ... I buy it as an "out" for their situation(s), as well as, a test of their sincerity to genuinely want change. ... I recommend this book to everyone in the world. ... It is genuinely one-of-a-kind. A moving, can't put the book down on one side of each page, and a technical "how to" on the other side of each page. Unbelievably well written, challenging, and confrontational. ... It is easy to tell who is full of BS by anyone that does not take action after reading this book. It is genuinely a life-changer. Thank you Mr. Robert Allen (I know you wrote it). You have two choices; To purchase the book and change your life for the better or, not buy it and continue to whine.

Dieses Buch ist wahrlich ein Meisterwerk! Ich liebe die Kombination aus der Schreibweise/Inhalt des Geschriebenen für die linke Gehirnhälfte (linke Buchseite) und die rechte GH (rechte Buchseite)! Faszinierend und transformativ!

Nice one.

I'm reading yet, but I have listened a lot of very good recommendations as I am comprobating. I hope to have of read it in spanish languaje.

J'avias déjà lu beaucoup de livre sur le sujet avant donc je n'ais pas appris grand chose, mais pour qui n'aurais jamais lut de livres sur la gestion des finances personnel c'est un excellent début !Le livre séparé en 2 parties avec une structure complètement différente qui raconte la même chose pourtant, nous permet de mieux comprendre certaines choses en les présentant différement.Dans le même registre je vous conseil :- tout le monde mérite d'être riche de Oliver Seban- Père riche père pauvre de R. kiyosaki
