Grammar, style, formatting and concept all get FIVE Stars. Content is in line with title promise. This is a guide that presents ideas and provokes and promotes brainstorming for more ideas on making money. The author wins on that point by NOT promising the world and then giving us a handful of dirt. Rather, he makes a reasonable claim and then delivers on what he has promised. This is not a BE THE NEXT INTERNET MILLIONAIRE diatribe. It is an honest guide to ways that you could add to your income or even replace it if you were so inclined. These are desperate times, calling for desperate measures. Mr. Martin covers a wide variety of possible ways to earn money. 67 pages is adequate for a short book of this nature. He has not stuffed and fluffed those pages. $.99 is more than fair for this little gem. I am delighted to have added it to my collection. He motivated and lifted my spirit. I too am struggling in this period of economic uncertainty.Let's look at an example that many might scoff at. COLLECTING ALUMINUM CANS. Most people envision walking the highways and picking up cans by the roadside, right? Wrong. While there is nothing wrong with this method, I personally know a family that saved all their soft drink cans and they had talked to friends and neighbors who also saved the cans for this family. Each week, the mother and kids would go door-to-door, making about 10-15 stops, collecting the cans in the family SUV. Then, straight to the recycling center. She would return home with $30-40, enough for groceries back then. This was in the early 1980's and I know it is true because every weekend, I was in the SUV, with my mom and my brothers. My uncle repaired neighborhood bikes and lawn mowers on weekends - until he was too old to do so. Those too were desperate times. Working one job was not enough. The odd-jobs and side-jobs brought in needed cash.For those who discern spiritual things, I tell you that there is a blessing here. Connect and receive.  I strongly support and recommend this book. May you prosper and know only success.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Thank you for reading my review.
