Too many people will see the title and jump to the conclusion that this is a get rich quick book.  It is not.  In fact the book really talks very little about any specific tips and techniques for getting rich.This book is really a mindset adjustment book.  Unless you approach life and business with the correct mindset, you will have a very difficult time "getting rich".  The first thing Tom Corson-Knowles, the author, does is to provide a better definition of what it means to be rich.  Being rich is not necessarily the amount of money or other assets you have.  Being rich means that you are content with life.  To achieve that you have to give up your attachment to material things.This book is a collection of 27 very short chapters - basically essays on different topics.  If you are a serious student of self-help, self-mastery, you will find most of the topics covered here are a collection and compilation of some of the best advice there is on the topic.  Jim Rohn is quoted quite often throughout the book.In order to succeed in life and business, you must approach either with the correct mindset.  In my opinion, the purpose of this book is to help you achieve the right mindset.  Each topic is covered in a short but straightforward manner.  There is not a lot of extraneous information provided - just the basic information necessary to understand the proper way to think about the topic being discussed.Because the book is short and the topics are covered in summary form, you will probably need to go through the book a few times for the information to sink in.  But this is a breeze since each chapter is generally 2 - 3 pages long, you could read 2 to 3 chapters a day.  If you want to be rich, this is a great place to start.There are some great links to motivational/inspirational videos provided at the end of the book as well as some good links for additional resources scattered throughout the book.Getting wealthy is not the easy path in life.  If you are truly committed to obtaining wealth, this book will start you on the right path by showing you the right mindset.  There is no quick and certainly no easy path - but there is a sure fire path.  It takes discipline and hard work.I was provided a review copy of this book.
