How to Be Rich

Getty was an extraordinary man. Highly intelligent, highly cultured, his life life and work are truly inspirational.

This is a book primarily about mindset and attitude. It is not so much about the physical steps to creating wealth as it is about the outlook and world-view required if one is to successfully achieve it. I was completely absorbed by this book and I HIGHLY recommend that you purchase and read it.

In the spirit of full disclosure, I should say that I am a speaker, trainer, and author of another unique and highly valuable learning tool that can also be found here on Amazon: The WealthLoop Series Beginner’s Guide to Personal Wealth Creation (Combo Audio/Data CD): Audio Seminar With Downloadable 40-Page Action Manual and Active Link Library. It is a straight-forward discussion of the art and science of personal wealth creation and should be considered by anyone serious about wanting to learn more about the right way to get started on the road to personal wealth creation and financial freedom!

This is an outstanding book that simply must be read by anyone wishing to start own or run a business. I found this much more inspirational than Napoleon Hill’s books. I believe Getty speaks very frankly in this book and from the heart. The only quibble is that he seems impervious to the racism that permeated the entire country during his tenure while deeply concerned about the other ills of his time. That is the only reason for my 4 stars.

This book by Getty is a quick read and easy to follow story of how to be successful in America. He uses matter of fact language to tell you how he did it all while teaching the reader. Getty uses his real life stories which make this book a quick and interesting read. Parts of what is written are not exactly timely, such as when Getty discusses America’s manufacturing power. Nonetheless, reading this book is a great lesson to anyone who seeks to be successful in whatever they hope to achieve.
