How To Become Rich?

How many people actually become rich after reading books on how to get rich?

  • Its amazing how many books are out there that teach people to acquire wealth, yet how many do? And is the advice REALLY that helpful? personally I feel as though all the money from the book sales just lines the pockets of these already ridiculously rich men and women.

  • Answer:

    i've never read one and coming from a business family... i really don't think you can learn what it takes to be rich from a book. BUT i have found friends who read self help books have improved their self esteem, attitude to work and opportunities and things like that. So while it won't make you big bucks, I think for certain people its still useful.

The only people who get rich are the ones writing the books.

well, all i can say there was one bbc reporter trying to know how bilgates becomes the richest man? Billgates replied! I always followed two rules in my life; 1. my first rule is never spend ur money 2. my second rule is never forget first rule....... so dont spend money on buying this book, store it.

those books generally address the attitude it requires to become wealthy. the difference between you and bill gates, is very simply the way you both think. read think and grow rich by napoleon hill. 20 year research went into this book and the title says it all, how you think determines if you get rich. most other books are shams.

The author, the publisher, the bookstore. Hell, it's a service industry all on its own!

Almost none at all. Think about it - the best way to wealth is to NOT let everyone in on the secret (whatever it is). If everyone knew it, then there would be no wealthy, only equally distributed wealth. Also, most of those books, shows, etc. are generally "feel good about yourself" type of scenarios that make you feel like you're doing something for yourself (which is fine), while spending a lot of money to do so (not so good). The only person who profits is the author/presenter. Hard work, a good original idea, and perseverance are the only surefire ways to get to the top - and even then, there are no guarantees. Infomercials do offer success stories, for bit-part actors who are playing the roles of "real people who became successful." Don't believe it.

Good question. None problably. Just like reading books on how to lose weight - never known a woman who has made it yet.
