The Science of Getting Rich

By: Wallace D. Wattles

Narrated by: Jason McCoy

Wallace D. Wattles spent a lifetime considering the laws of success as he found them in the work of the world's great philosophers. He then turned his life effort into this simple book - a volume that he vowed could replace libraries of philosophy, spirituality, and self-help for the purpose of attaining one definite goal: a life of prosperity.

Wattles describes a definite science of wealth attraction, built on the foundation of one commanding idea: "There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made....A thought, in this substance, produces the thing that is imaged by the thought."

In his 17 short, straight-to-the-point chapters, Wattles shows how to use this idea, how to overcome barriers to its application, and how to work with very direct methods that awaken it in your life. He further explains how creation and not competition is the hidden key to wealth attraction, and how your power to get rich uplifts everyone around you.

LOVE this listen!

I absolutely love this book...gives a straight up, no beating around the bush approach to get the riches you want in life. I have listened to it at least 4 times already and will continue to listen to it...the more I listen to the more I understand what Wallace is saying.


I will say that the narration is fast...meaning the narrator reads very quickly - that could be a good thing and a bad thing. On my first listen, I didn't like it, because I was trying to really think about what was being said, and would find that I would have to rewind it so that it could "sink in". However, now that I have listened to it several times, I like it, because it is a fast read and doesn't take all day.

Content AND Delivery A+++

This book and a very few others were the result of a lifetime of investigation by Wallace Wattles. Mentioned by name in the "The Secret" as the book that inspired the beginning of the quest that became the movie, this is a no nonsense here's how it works book. Made even better by the no nonsense delivery. Listen to it untill you know it by heart!

Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!

This is an excellent listen! It follows all of the teachings that I have learned over the past year. The power is in positive thought. The only thing that holds anyone back is false beliefs. This book helps us to clear up some of those beliefs that may be holding us back. Although this book was originally written about 100 years ago, it is amazing how the thinking applies to today. I can see prime examples of businesses that have embraced the creative way as opposed to the competitive way. The creative way is definitely the winning edge and will truly make you rich in all areas of your life.

. great read

with this knowledge we have zero reason to not get rich this is an oldie but a goodie. I will test the practices and see for myself.
