My Testimonial
One of the Best Life-Changing Books that I will definitely want my kids to read in the future.
2. The Millionaire Next Door By Thomas J. Stanley Ph.D.
Who is the millionaire next door?
What are the secrets they are keeping that make them a millionaire?
Why am I not yet a millionaire?
“I am hard-working, well-educated, and have a decent earning, so why aren’t I as wealthy as I should be?”
If you catch yourself asking these questions, don’t worry because you are not alone.
Thomas J. Stanley was the chief adviser to Data Points and has done in-depth research in profiling ‘millionaires’ who have a net worth of one to ten million.
This book teaches a life-changing story of the very surprising behavior of those whom they call UAWs (Under Accumulators of Wealth) and those who are PAWs (Prodigious Accumulator of Wealth).
Most people have the wrong idea of how you become wealthy. Inheritance, advanced degrees, and even intelligence are not part of the reason that these people are millionaires.
The Millionaire Next Door has identified seven common traits of the wealthy and how you too can learn from them and be a millionaire.
The best-kept secrets are so easy to follow that I cannot believe what I am reading.

3. Think and Grow Rich By Napoleon Hill
‘Think and Grow Rich’ is not a get-rich-quick book. Neither is it a book that tells you which stocks to buy or which real estate to sell.
It is a classic that teaches you something even more important.
Written and published in 1937, Napoleon Hill draws on stories of millionaires of his generation. This includes Andrew Carnegie who was among the most powerful men in the world. ‘Think and Grow Rich’ has illustrated a mindset that will be life-changing to readers who read this book.
For the past 70 years, over 20 million copies of his book ‘Think and Grow Rich’ has been sold, and have been an all-time best seller and the No.1 read for many successful men and women.
Think and Grow Rich has been called the “Father of All Motivational Books.”
In fact, it was the first book that ask, “What makes you a winner?”
Such a powerful question has led to the success of many who seek the answer in this book.
The book you hold has a price tag, but the knowledge it holds is priceless. A classic that has passed the test of time for over 70 years. The one book that brings one true peace of mind

Reader’s Guide On How To Choose The Right Book For You?
Books that touch your life or are even life-changing are books worth reading.
Reading all of them will take a while and most of us don’t have that much time to spare. We have a family to take care of, money to earn, or even hobbies to do.
Why not I suggest you just start with one.
Read the one that interests you most, the one that you feel that is talking closest to your heart. Let your feeling be your guide.
And from there you can check out the second book and maybe a third one.
Clicking on the questions will bring you to the book that may be the possible answer to your question. So what questions do you want to answer to guide you in this life-changing experience?
- Do you want to follow a simple step-by-step guide that can change your life?
- Are you someone who wants to be financially free?
- Do you want something light to start with?
- Do you want to know the secrets of high achievers?
- Or do you want to simply act now and be the best?
There is no absolute right or wrong which to read first. The choice is yours. But my suggestion is
“The more you learn, the more you earn.”
