    Book Description

    Why do some people struggle financially while others seem destined for more prosperous lives? What if you could enjoy a more abundant lifestyle without sacrificing anything you now hold dear—your values, your health, your spirituality, your freedom, your friends and family? Take it from two authors who know firsthand: You can.

    Mark Victor Hansen is coauthor of the phenomenally successful Chicken Soup for the Soul series, and Robert G. Allen is the author of the blockbuster paradigm-shifting bestseller Nothing Down. But it wasn’t always that way. Neither author is a stranger to failure. Both have lost everything—more than once! But, independent of each other and over time, these two men came up with principles for helping both themselves and others. They began conducting their business lives along enlightened lines, and since then their joy and their wealth have grown exponentially.

    Now, with this book, Hansen and Allen have teamed up to provide you with their time-tested tenets for unlocking the secrets of creating Enlightened Wealth. The keys lie in the book’s four wealth codes:

    •The Destiny Code

    •The Prism Code

    •The Angel Code

    •The Star Code

    Along the way you’ll read stories of people just like you who have discovered the extraordinary lives they were meant to live and stepped into them. You’ll learn how to turn your unknown assets into millions, create your own Enlightened Wealth Statement, unleash the power of “hundredfolding,” follow the 101-Day Plan to your first million, and use Residual Philanthropy to pave your way to even greater wealth.

    And the beauty of it all is that the first tumbler to click into place is found inside of you—it’s based on doing what comes naturally. Once you determine what you love to do (and the pages ahead have dozens of tips for doing so), you enlighten your journey with the fire of your true passion.

    Yes, this is going to take determination and hard work, but once you’ve cracked the Millionaire Code, all your effort will seem “right” in a way that it never did before.

    Are you ready to become the next enlightened millionaire?

    Learn the fastest, most natural route to prospering with integrity:

    •Discover your enlightened million-dollar idea

    •Turn your unknown assets into millions

    •Gather an amazing team around you

    •Unleash the power of “hundredfolding”

    •Follow the 101-Day Plan to your first enlightened million

    •Use Residual Philanthropy to pave your way to even greater wealth

    Like the dozens of people whose inspiring stories of Enlightened Wealth are told in the pages of this book, you can live the life you want—the life you were meant to lead. What are you waiting for?

    1 out of 5 stars Old wine , New ,,,, cover design perhaps?.......2007-09-17

    For ages we are told to involve God in our plans. For ages we are told that prayers with faith "as little as a mustard seed" can work miracles in our life. For ages we have found this to be true. Do we need to spend time reading 300 plus pages to know that, or is that time better spent praying.
    Need an idea to make money? This is America. Books on making money sell! You only need one key idea to promote and scores of success stories to support that key idea. Look around in your neighbourhood, you'll find plenty of success stories. They dont have to be in the billionaire or millionaire range. Just a nextdoor guy doing well, should do. Of course, you need to be in a club where authors praise each other's books. You scratch mine, I'll scratch yours. Now, you just keep on pounding that one idea with different words or phrases, over and over and over again,, page after tiring page, till (along with stories, anecdotes,etc etc) you reach an acceptable number of pages so it can be called a book, and you have your book ready. Rich Dad Poor Dad, was excellent for those who came across the idea for the first time that "a job wont get you anywhere". You see? just one idea and a book was created that sold million copies.
    I give one star for this one since my title says it all, but it is ok for those who are already working on a personal business project, to keep them motivated. But then, Norman Vincent Peale, Dale Carnegie, Napoleon Hill and there are many more, do the job better. The key is to have a project. No book will give you that. I'd rather work along those lines and keep my faith in prayers. I dont really expect much out of this book.

    I would not endorse this book

    4 out of 5 stars Money-making code breaking for future millionaires.......2007-01-19

    Packed with meaningful anecdotes, clever little games and codes to crack, this book looks at wealth creation from a new perspective. As Mark Victor Hansen and Robert G. Allen concede, this is hardly your typical "get-rich quick" book, despite its businesslike title. With its focus on "enlightened" enterprise, destiny, "angels," inner circles, prisms and the guidance of a "Higher Power," this book is not for everyone. It is hampered by New Age slang and excess, invented buzz words and acronyms. However, for those looking for an alternative to the typical business text, it is as much a sincere ethereal self-help book as a means to wealth. It focuses on wealth creation for the sake of affording philanthropy and finding purpose. We recommend this to people with a spiritual bent who seek both meaning and millions.

    1 out of 5 stars More Fluff Courtesy of Bob Allen and Friend.......2006-12-30

    About twenty-five years ago Robert G. Allen was making a name for himself as a real estate guru. His Nothing Down title was on the bestseller list and lots of people were hoping to make money in real estate with his techniques. While I was skeptical of his no money down concept, I never took him for a charlatan. He seemed pretty sincere about his concepts and his desire to help people. Well, things certainly have changed. His last four titles, starting with Multiple Streams of Income, are little more than advertising for his website and products. I'd like to think better of Robert Allen, but really, how can I after the garbage he's churned out? Serendestiny? C'mon, Bob. Tell me that was Mark Victor Hansen's idea, not yours. In all fairness, who are the people making these guys richer? It's us. We're all looking for the magic pill that's going to make us wealthy without having to struggle. These guys sure make it look easy, and, honestly, isn't that what we're looking for? Someone to reassure us that everything is going to be alright. "Just follow these five simple steps and you'll be raking in the dough in no time, just like Joe Success on page 153 did. Yep, he followed the program to the letter, and look what happened to him." We're all looking for the quick fix and these guys are all too happy to offer it to us. Shame on us for believing in this drivel.

    1 out of 5 stars Complete Waste of Time and Money.......2006-12-01

    This book is a joke. TONS OF FLUFF! They go on and on and on about theories and stories of others who made money. The only substance it has, which is very little, is nothing new. In the first chapter of the book they tell you to go out and talk to friends and family to get them on your "team". They say to talk to 100 people if need be, and oh yeah, TELL THEM ALL TO BUY THE BOOK. If you want to learn about obtaining wealth, buy a business book. It's obvious these guys are just out to make money and waste people's time. Truly sad.

      The Habit Of Saving by Napoleon Hill

      The Master Key System by Charles Haanel

      I Dare You! by William H. Danforth

      I agree that a businessman should stick to business. But a proven four-fold program, plus a love for Youth, plus an inner urge-all dare me to write this book. "I Dare You" is for the daring few who are headed somewhere. Those afraid to Dare might as well pass it up. It will weary the lazy because it calls for immediate action. It will bore the sophisticated, and amuse the skeptics. It will antagonize others. Some will not even know what it is all about. It will not be over-popular because it calls for courage, swift and daring. But in the eyes of you, one of the priceless few, I trust will come a renewal of purpose as you read on. You can be a bigger person than you are and I am going to prove it to you. I am indebted beyond measure to Gordon M. Philpott, who has been of inestimable help in the writing and editing of "I Dare You." His keen insight, his rare judgment and his frank criticisms have helped make this book a labor of love instead of a drab task. I honor him as a close associate in business, but most of all I cherish him as an understanding friend.

      Steps To Success: think yourself rich

      It is your right to be rich, you know. You're here to lead the abundant life. You are here to be happy, radiant and free. You should therefore have all the wealth you need to live a full, happy and prosperous life, of course you should. You are here to grow, expand and unfold spiritually, mentally, and materially, and professionally. You have the inalienable right to fully develop, to express yourself in all ends. You should surround yourself with beauty and luxury. Why be satisfied with just enough to go around, when you can enjoy the riches of your subconscious mind?

      The Master Key System by Charles F. Haanel

      Charles F. Haanel was a successful business man who discovered that spiritual life is a key to success in everything you do. He proved that what is happening outside is in a direct relation to what is taking place in your consciousness. When the Master Key was published, it was one of those books that successful business men wanted out of the market. They didn't want people to read this book as its truths would help anyone to overcome limitations. He explains in very plain language how to create your own world according to your own desires in accordance with your level of discipline in attaining your goals. The rumor is that when Bill Gates was just a student, he read this book and utilized its truths. Rest is history.

      The Habit of Saving by Napoleon Hill

      - The Law of Habit...and how you automatically apply it. - The simple two-step process to increase your earning power. - How to think and talk your way to success. - The two classes of debt...and which one you should avoid like the plague. - Why a poverty consciousness will affect your health. - The two-step process that will get rid of poverty for good. - Why you think the wrong way around when you have some money. - How saving can lead to success in other areas of your life. - The shocking truth about the savings of 98% of people. - How to assure your financial independence.

      5 out of 5 stars contentment is the key.......2006-10-09

      Dave is preaching some good lessons about life in this book. Values, vision, intensity, patience, wisdomonics (his word).... but the key to me is contentment. Learn to be happy that you are loved by God, and stop looking at spending money on stuff to make you happy. See yourself as a participant in God's world doing His will, and stop focusing on yourself. I know this is easier said than done, and especially if you have a family to support (you always want to give them the best stuff). This isn't your typical financial planning book, or even your typical how to get out of debt book, but it is filled with good thoughts about life in general, and if you live them, Dave promises other problems (e.g., money) will fade away, or at least get under control. I give this a big thumbs up.

      5 out of 5 stars Must read if you don't have MORE THAN ENOUGH.......2001-12-22

      Dave's teaching is practical and common sense. If you follow his plan you will have peace and prosparity. His simple teaching may be scoffed at because it seems common sense, however most people don't follow this and they suffer. I hope you'll read it for your benefit. If you want to have more than enough in your financies and in your life, then read this book.

      5 out of 5 stars Must-read for anyone, great perspective on money and more.......1999-07-13

      In this book Dave really drives it home - it's all about values, integrity, honesty and money is just an indicator of those. It taught me a lot on how it really works and it does, you can have more than enough! Go get it!

      5 out of 5 stars Dave Ramsey hits a homerun "It truly is about Integrity".......1999-04-09

      This book should help just about everybody. Dave's open and honest text helps the reader look deep inside himself to look not only for finanial peace but peace in knowing that the reader can sleep at night with all the other parts of his life no matter who he or she is or how finacially secure he or she might beRamsey has worked hard at his own success and makes no bones about sharing a life that is more about integrity and doing the right thing than the typical finacial strategy books on the market.His tips are solid as a rock and should not be ignored. Especially in todays enviroment where words like integrity, honesty and courage seem to be set aside for excuses and lies. The book takes Dave's first book and drives home the behavioral changes that need to take place to be successful in all aspects of life. Great Job Dave and thank you.

      5 out of 5 stars Do yourself (and your family) a favor ... read this book!.......1999-01-19

      I submitted a review of this book last week. I loved the book. I would gladly write an additional review. I wholely believe in Dave's Methods and have shared them with many friends and family. They will change your live.

          Book Description

          Continuous prosperity can be within our grasp - provided we institute the simple economic reform fully documented in these pages. This is what this book promises: v Most readers will get a tax break v Absolutely no taxes on produced things v All land-sites would be used productively v No diminution at all in government revenues It sounds almost too good to be true, but these four benefits have already occurred whenever it has been tried in actual practice. This is important - a proposal must be not only simple and logical, but tested. Prospective readers should know that there is a veritable mountain of empirical evidence proving each of these four points - see chapter three. Much more hard empirical evidence is available, but uppermost in the author's mind was the readability of this book. Heavy subject, light treatment. You be the judge. If this simple proposal is not enacted, then America and the other democracies in the world will slowly tax themselves into "benevolent" dictatorship (no doubt still called democracy) and socialism (probably called compassion). It's happening already. Free enterprise can't work without it and will soon disappear. You should know that literally hundreds of well-known historical figures and urban experts have endorsed this proposal - see chapter five. You could know what they know? To find out what this proposal is, you will have to read the book. Suffice it to say here that there is a good tax that actually promotes the economy, even if the revenue it produces is thrown away! If this book's proposal can accomplish the above four benefits, this book then is truly epochal. The proposal becomes the most important idea since the beginning of human history. !! Simplicity and readability - these have been the watchwords of the author while writing this book. He has not found it necessary to obfuscate. It has been his primary intention to make this book not only vitally important but a joy to read - no jargon allowed.
