"What would it take for you to change the course of your life?" reads the first sentence of The Courage to Be Rich, a book that goes beyond the phenomenal success of The 9 Steps to Financial Freedom in challenging and inspiring us to realize our full financial potential, and to realize as well that the bottom line of life is comprised of much more than money. Why does it take courage to be rich? Because it takes courage to meet every obstacle and opportunity of life, to forgive ourselves and others for past mistakes, to imagine and achieve a future rich with possibility. With her signature blend of inspirational and practical advice, Suze Orman asks us to look within, asserting her powerful conviction that once we achieve a state of emotional clarity regarding money, financial clarity will always follow. She guides us through a lifetime of financial issues, from relationships and prenuptial agreements to investment options, from the money we spend in daily life to the money we need for tomorrow. Finally, Suze takes on the seldom-explored subject of money and grace, the rewards it bestows and the responsibilities it confers. Suze Orman may be the only financial planner for whom words like "hope," "acceptance," and "courage" are part of her daily lexicon. The Courage to Be Rich is a book that will change our very definitions of wealth and abundance.

Suze Orman has written a excellent book. First, she focuses on the brass tacks for success---the mental state. This is much different and better than other psycho babble books about the mind(one exception is Miracle Power for Infinite Riches by Joseph Murphy) Most people are and stay broke because of what is going on between their ears. Many of the people I come across are either savers, earning less than 10% per year or spendthrifts with overactive lifestyles. Both groups end up broke.Far too many people put control in the hands of other people; brokers, financial planners, insurance agents and investment counselors. Suze puts empahasis on being your own financial planner. Great advice! I've done it and am wealthier as a result.I used to be one of those millions of Americans who couldn't wait for that once per year tax refund and felt so good about getting my own money back (interest free) from the IRS. STUPID!!! Why loan your money interest free to anyone especially the IRS? I don't anymore. That is new found money to invest in mutuals and stocks. I used to be a saver getting those impotent 2%-6% returns in "safe" places like savings accounts, savings bonds and cd's. After reading Courage to be Rich I now have the courage to invest in real investments that actually produce a profit. I also opened a money market mutual fund.I had a whole life insurance policy on myself. After careful examination, I took Suze's advice and dropped the whole life policy and switched to term. I agree 100% with Suze [now] that whole life is a rip off and only makes insurance companies rich.

It's not often that a book, especially in this genre, will impact my life like this one already has. Suze Orman's book was given to me as a gift from a friend that I care about deeply. She knew that my life and my business had hit a sort of plateau and she felt that "The Courage to Be Rich: Creating a Life of Material and Spiritual Abundance" would help me in both my personal and business life.This is one of those books that you simply can't put down. I'd suggest that after you purchase it, you find a time when you can allocate the whole day to reading it as you'll want to read it from cover to cover. I wanted to write a review to let people know about my own experience, after reading the book, and how it genuinely impacted my life. I hope that after reading my review, you'll gravitate towards buying the book for yourself. And if you're planning on buying it just as a gift, you might want to order 2 copies so you can enjoy reading a copy for yourself. You deserve it.This is not your typical "Think and Grow Rich" type of book. It's not filled with a bunch of psychological nonsense that offers no real assistance to the reader. Instead, Orman takes the bull by the horns and delivers a book of stellar quality!Before finishing even the first chapter, I discovered that the only real way to create a life of material and spiritual abundance was to become the Captain of my own ship and to not depend on any outside financial planner. Orman has taught me, through clear and wisely written steps, that I am capable of doing so much of what I placed in the hands of others. I'm 100% capable of doing so much of what I entrusted into financial planners, CPA's, and other professionals.
