About this audiobook

Written nearly a century ago and recently rediscovered by Rhonda Byrne, creator of The Secret

Becoming rich is not a matter of environment or talents. Money and property come to us as a result of doing things in a certain way. This is a natural law -- the Law of Attraction -- that specific actions always produce like effects. As a result, anyone who learns to do things in a certain way will ultimately become prosperous.

There exists a science of getting rich -- and it is an exact science, like algebra or arithmetic and The Science of Getting Rich explains obtaining wealth in a practical, mathematical, manner. Wallace D. Wattles treats gaining riches as a simple equation, and if his simple, rational steps are done in a "certain way," the result will always equal wealth.

Updated for the twenty-first century, this exclusive revised edition of The Science of Getting Rich presents a modern version of the lessons taught in the original. Free of complicated theories and wordy philosophies, it is told in a clear-cut, easy-to-understand manner that all can comprehend and apply to theirlives. It requires only that you listen, internalize the words, and keep your thoughts on your desires. You will then obtain the wealth that is awaiting everyone.

    Written in the late 1800's and reportedly the prelude to the Secret, this small book has powerful directions for getting rich. Its a science that anyone can use with the right set of instructions. The author eventually got rich, but died early in life. However his thoughts and ideas are as relevant today as they were when he put them on paper.

    The “NEW” updated version is actually just bible verses inserted throughout. Literally straight from the Bible and with no commentary to unpack them. If that’s for you, you’ll love this “updated” version.

    No non-sense,bare bones. Follow the instructions. So easy to do. And if you look at those who have success in their lives financially or otherwise they have actually obviously followed this advice! You don’t need another book on how to get rich.

    This is the original work that brought to light concepts like "law of attraction", the "Original Substance" i.e. God, impressing your thoughts on the "Thinking Substance", etc. and it was published in 1910 (!) Later books like "Think and Grow Rich" and the latest "bestsellers" like "The Secret", are simply extensions of this primal book. Read it, practice it, be wealthy beyond the simple possession of "stuff". This is a book for your mind and your spirit.

    This disnformation is based on the new thought movement concept by Supreme charlatan Napoleon Hill. It's materialism masked in pseudo spirituality. There is no scientific method to this at all .How dare he equates materialism with the teachings of Jesus Christ.

    Science? There was zero science in this audio book. Instead there was "God", deepities and woo. Don't call a book science if there isn't a shred of science ANYWHERE in its contents. What a waste if time.

    I just rated this as 4 stars since I haven?t proven yet that the theories stated in this book are true. Overall, I love the way Wattles explained his theory by means of using simple lay man?s terms. He also uses a Christian perspective as an example which makes it easier for anyone to understand.This book does not only open your mind to the possibility that being rich can be easily attained but it also explains in detail how to actually do it. It helps to overcome the common notion that being wealthy is applicable only for those who are already born rich. We have to start changing these negative perceptions by embracing the power of positive thinking and begin to act upon it.Note: I?ve read an eBook version (Published April 19th 2007 by Tarcher) which is already simplified thus it?s easier to understand than the original one that was published in 1910.

    Very powerful reading. A book that you won't want to put down once you have started to read it. Though written years ago in 1910 to be exact, the message is still vibrant and fresh today and the principles can be adapted for today's life style. Wallace D. Wattles is basically saying that the real power and science of getting rich lies within everyone of us, we just need instructions or guidance how to use it to benefit us in our daily lives.
