Publisher Description
A practical approach to creating wealth-based on the established principles of ancient Jewish wisdom-made accessible to people of all backgrounds
The ups and downs of the economy prove Rabbi Daniel Lapin's famous principle that the more things change, the more we need to depend upon the things that never change. There's no better source for both practical and spiritual financial wisdom than the time-tested knowledge found in the ancient Jewish faith and its culture. In the Second Edition of Thou Shall Prosper, Lapin offers a practical approach to creating wealth based on the established principles of ancient Jewish wisdom. This book details the ten permanent principles that never change, the ten commandments of making money if you will, and explores the economic and philosophic vision of business that has been part of Jewish culture for centuries. The book's focus is on making accessible to individuals of all backgrounds, the timeless truths that Jews have used for centuries to excel in business.
Outlines ten fundamental "commandments" relating to business and money Includes insights that will increase your potential for creating wealth, no matter what your faith or background may be Blends contemporary business stories and Lapin's own business experiences with the wisdom of the Torah and Talmudic prescriptions
This Second Edition provides new examples, especially of Internet related business opportunities. In addition, each chapter highlights specific action steps that can lead to wealth opportunities in both difficult economic times and periods of prosperity.
Customer Reviews
Value-less
Dry. Very disappointing read.
I had to skim read to finish up.
Expected a whole lot more, especially with Dave Ramsey's endorsement - who is a frank and to the point kind of person which I appreciate.
£14.99 I will never get back as this book was of no investment value at all - most topics have been covered off with many other authors.
No great insight that was drilled further from the already known surface of Jewish business / financial culture, but rather very diluted with a lot of 'fact' waffle and noise.
I'm not surprised as I know Jews to be a close knit community - clearly none of them will feel threatened or exposed over this book in any way.
Personally I don't believe most people have a chip on their shoulder in regards to the morality of business...
