The One Minute Millionaire: The Enlightened Way to Wealth

by Mark Victor Hansen, Robert G. Allen Narrated by Various

Overview

Two mega-bestselling authors with decades of experience in teaching people how to achieve extraordinary wealth and success share their secrets.

Mark Victor Hansen, cocreator of the phenomenal Chicken Soup for the Soul series, and Robert G. Allen, one of the world's foremost financial experts, have helped thousands of people become millionaires. Now it's your turn.

Is it possible to make a million dollars in only one minute? The answer just might surprise you. The One Minute Millionaire is an entirely new approach, a life-changing “millionaire system” that will teach you how to:

* Create wealth even when you have nothing to start with.
* Overcome fears so you can take reasonable risks.
* Use the power of leverage to build wealth rapidly.
* Use “one minute” habits to build wealth over the long term.

The One Minute Millionaire is a revolutionary approach to building wealth and a powerful program for self-discovery as well. Here are two books in one, fiction and nonfiction, designed to address two kinds of learning so that you can fully integrate these life-changing lessons. On the right-hand pages, you will find the fictional story of a woman who has to make a million dollars in ninety days or lose her two children forever. The left-hand pages give the practical, step-by-step nonfiction strategies and techniques that actually work in the real world. You'll find more than one hundred nuts-and-bolts “Millionaire Minutes,” each one a concise and invaluable lesson with specific techniques for creating wealth.

However, the lessons here are not just about becoming a millionaire-they are about becoming an enlightened millionaire and how to ethically make, keep, and share your wealth. Whether your goal is less than a million dollars or that amount many times over, there's never been a better time to achieve abundance. Let The One Minute Millionaire show you the way.

Editorial Reviews

Mark Victor Hansen is the mastermind behind the blockbuster Chicken Soup series, and Robert G. Allen is the personal finance expert who wrote the million-selling Nothing Down and Creating Wealth. What brings these two bestselling authors together is their belief that good thinking and good spirits should be compatible gifts. Part inspirational fable and part motional personal finance book, The One Minute Millionaire could be the most unconventional and uplifting business book you've ever read.

Publishers Weekly

This mega-selling twosome (Hansen's name is on every book in the Chicken Soup series and Allen wrote the bestselling real estate guide No Money Down) offers a long-winded pep talk on how just about anybody can make big money. According to the authors, "At this very instant you are standing in the middle of millions." They maintain that anyone can achieve "enlightened" wealth, a utopia where everyone has money and tithes, creating a better world for all. Hansen and Allen's approach is a mix of self-help and money talk, though a bit heavier on the former. The left-hand pages are a simplified explanation of how to amass millions, with options such as write a book, buy and sell real estate and start a company. The right-hand pages illustrate the same themes, via fictionalized dramas, e.g., newly widowed Michelle's struggle to come up with $1 million in cash to get her two children back from her in-laws. Hansen and Allen's feel-good suggestions run along the lines of "find a mentor," "use a fulcrum" and "be part of a team." Full of endless acronyms (e.g., "System: Save Your Self Time Energy Money"), catchy phrases (e.g., "A Dream + A Team + A Theme = Millionaire Streams") and animal imagery (butterflies, honeybees, owls and hares scamper among the pages), this offering echoes much of the self-help cacophony already out there. But its message is muddled: sometimes the millions are yours for the asking, and sometimes it's the system that keeps you down. Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information.

AUG/SEP 03 - AudioFile

One of the Chicken Soup authors and a top real estate author team up to offer their lessons in two formats--one didactic and the other a fable. The lessons focus on the practices and passion you need to be successful with any money-making system. The large and steady stream of information is powerful. The basic idea is that small corrections in our habits can have an enormous long-term impact on our attitudes and financial results. The authors are empowering and effective speakers who are committed to their ideas, which are well detailed in this unabridged work. An excellent program for listeners with the time and desire to immerse themselves in the substance of this program. T.W. © AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine
