Scoprite tutti i segreti dei ricchi con il New York Times bestseller di Dr. Thomas J. Stanley e Dr. William D. Danko! Una vita finanziariamente prospera non è una prerogativa di pochi. Questo audiolibro dimostra inequivocabilmente che la maggior parte di quelli che la raggiungono sono persone normali. Persone proprio come te. Di solito i milionari non diventano ricchi grazie a un'eredità o a una formazione d'élite e non vivono nei quartieri eleganti. Al contrario, rifiutano uno stile di vita edonistico e spese esagerate.

Walk into any pharmacy and you’ll find shelves of vitamins, powders, and capsules promising energy, immunity, longevity, focus, and repair. Some of them help in specific cases. Many don’t. Most people end up somewhere in between, taking a few things they’re unsure about, skipping others they vaguely worry they might need, and never quite knowing what’s actually working.

This isn't a book by someone who didn't make it.
