The One Minute Millionaire, brings together two brilliant thinkers: Robert G. Allen, whose books like Multiple Streams of Income and No Money Down, have helped people become wealthy; and Mark Victor Hansen, whose “Chicken Soup” books, and many other works, have inspired millions.

Together, these two authors are a force to be reckoned with. Imagine getting practical, useful advice about finances, and getting motivational self-help stories to help you harness the power of positive thinking.

That’s exactly what The One Minute Millionaire provides. It’s a one-two punch that’s bound to give you a head-start down the road to personal and financial success.

Allen and Hansen's book, The One Minute Millionaire, is really two books in one. On the left-hand pages are the financial tips, with dozens and dozens of great ideas for producing more income for yourself. On the right-hand pages are fictional stories meant to teach principles and illustrate the themes being taught.

That combined approach means both sides of the brain are stimulated. It engages the reader far more than a regular book does. Different people respond better to different types of writing. Allen and Hansen have all their bases covered, and The One Minute Millionaire will appeal to everyone.

The financial advice stresses the importance of maximizing your money. The ideal situation is to do something once and then continue to get paid for it over and over again.

This is how multi-level marketing works, with the people at the top earning commissions on sales down the line that they had no direct involvement in. It’s the principle behind royalties for books and songs, as well as so many other business models.

Hansen and Allen detail the many ways of applying these important ideas to your own life, regardless of your current situation.

The authors talk about the seven money skills of prosperous people; ways of buying real estate with little or no money down, and how to develop multiple sources of income.

Regardless of your lack of resources, or level of adversity that you are currently facing – this book will make you realize that regardless of the barriers in front of you, you can overcome them and take control over your personal and financial destiny.

All of these ideas are practical and realistic. You can start applying them almost immediately. The ideas are here; what you need to supply is the commitment.

Luckily, the book is highly motivational and enthusiastic, too. You’re bound to feel energized and dedicated to the task, just from reading it. The authors’ enthusiasm is contagious!

The One Minute Millionaire is one of the few books that can truly change lives. A lot of authors strive for that kind of effectiveness; Hansen and Allen have genuinely achieved it.
