Today is a big day for Actor, Author, Entrepreneur, Mentor and Scholar Hill Harper just to name a few of his many titles. This New York Times Best selling Author has released yet another master piece which we all need to support and add to his list of best selling titles AND make it a #1 best seller. The release of his new book The Wealth Cure: Putting Money in its place is now available!
I had an opportunity to read an excerpt of The Wealth Cure and I was ready for more. This book makes you look at the way we perceive money and the value we place upon it that makes us pretty much worship it! Now I do understand that money does make the world go around and we do need it to survive but, the way we earn it, budget it and use it makes a huge difference. Think about it!
There is one particular part of the excerpt that stood out to me and made me nod my head in agreement with Hill Harper and that was… “Our society is addicted to debt, exacerbating that problem; we live in a culture that associates material objects – “bling†– with success. Those two factors have led us to overvalue money. So much that in many ways we “chase paper†just as intently as substance addicts chase their next fix. Our relationship with money borders upon addiction, and so many of the problems we see today, individually and collectively, are the result of this craving. We make irrational and often destructive choices because we have given money and its pursuit too much value.â€
Did you read that? If you need to read it again go ahead so that you can fully understand what is being stated and I’m sure it’ll leave you wanting more the way I was ready to read “The Wealth Cure†from cover to cover. You are able to get this book at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Indiebound and Books a Million. If you are a nook reader, download your copy of The Wealth Cure, I’m sure after reading this book we will all have a better outlook on the way we look at money, wealth and keeping our well being a priority.
