This book will change your life.When Richard Paul Evans was twelve, his father, a building contractor, shattered both his legs.

Reviews
"As president of the American Medical Association, I saw firsthand the health risk imposed by debt and poverty....I personally recommend this book to anyone wishing for better health, a happier marriage, or a better life." -- Dr. John Nelson, former president, American Medical Association

"InThe Five Lessons a Millionaire Taught Me About Life and Wealth,RichardPaul Evans explains in a concise and, therefore, powerful way the principles of wealth. You, who are willing to put the five lessons into practice, will become wealthy. And in doing so, you will increase your powers of opportunity and your ability to be generous in a faltering world."-- Hyrum Smith, cofounder, Franklin Covey

"Oliver Wendell Holmes taught, 'I would give a fig for the simplicity on this side of complexity, but I would give my right arm for the simplicity on the far side of complexity.' These five lessons represent that simplicity with a larger sublime context." -- Dr. Stephen R. Covey, author ofThe 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

"Richard Paul Evans not only teaches the prudent acquisition of wealth but the proper way to use it. I would as readily recommend this book to the young, cash-strapped newlywed couple as to the manager of a multibillion-dollar enterprise." -- Robert C. Gay, managing director, Bain Capital

Frank SadlerProfessional, Bellingham Country Club, Bellingham, WashingtonIt's the first time words and illustrations have made golfing technique absolutely clear. I'm applying the lessons to my teaching program here and highly recommending them to my pupils. I'd say it's the greatest instruction series of all time. Women are particularly keen on it. It'll make a lot of new golfers -- good golfers.

Jim FogertyProfessional, Sunset Country Club, St. LouisMost articles on golf deal only in theory, but Ben is to be congratulated on probably the most practical series on golf instruction ever written.

Timothy E. SickCalgaryAfter reading the first two articles, I had a 73 for the first time in my life, and hadn't played for six months before that.

sense about my money

This book is a fun and easy read. The 5 lessons are simple to grasp and gets me excited about accumulating money instead of spending it. This book is one of the best books Ive read on the subject of changing my mind set and make additional money in the margins.

Good Basic Information.

Good. Basic information. Seems like he is baiting you for some hidden agenda. Like you are to be one of his multiple streams of income. Reading book in these areas are full of those. We are at different levels. Those who do. Those who read and do. Those who read. Those who don't read.
So decide who you are and get on track. If these books help you then get it read it and do it.

The Five Lessons a Millionaire Taught Me About Life And

Phenomenal book. Everyone should read a copy. Simple steps to financial wealth. Anyone can follow the ideas in this book. I bought a copy for a 21 year old friend of mine, because if she just follows this book's ideas with $25 A MONTH invested, she'll be a millionaire in 40 years. That's incredible.

Five Lessons a Millionaire Taught Me About Life & Wealt

Previously read this book on loan from a friend. Wanted to pass a copy on to my son who is just "getting a good start" in his career. Excellent book, easy read, and essential material in helping one set his financial and life priorities.
