Small Business Marketing Magic 101 Secrets To A Six Figure Income by Jeff Paul


and

Jolly Roger Cookbook
 


The Secret was based more on Wallace Wattles book, The Science Of Getting Rich. But yeah, the whole secret thing is just a gravy train for modern day personal development "gurus" to milk suckers.

If you want more book titles than Think and Grow Rich, and The Science of Getting Rich... there's....

As A Man Thinketh
The Law of Success (The book(s) that Think and Grow Rich is basically the cliffnotes of)

fuck.. that's all I can think of right now.

I'm really getting my head on straight the more I read Stoic philosophers, though. Good shit there.
 
The Three Little Pigs. And .... Humpy Dumpy. High quality stories that you can derive moral values from!
 
Interesting:
Check out "Maybe Logic" - documentary by/on Robert Anton Wilson

Still looking for books more on life then anything else. Now that I've seen RAW's documentary I guess I'm trying to read about this stuff because I want to learn more about other peoples "reality tunnels". Any reading recommendations for life/foundation/world views/reality type stuff. = ) R.A.W is amazing thanks again nevele.
 
I was intrigued by The QuarterLife Crisis more than a few years ago. I think it's extremely relevant to our generation - not about money or work, more about thinking and why our generation is constantly searching...and searching...

Oh, and I liked Freakonomics and Men are From Mars; Women are From Venus, and the Millionaire Next Door.
 
Hmm.. what did you get out of that?

"The fantastic voyage" is shit, BTW...

Kurzweil turned me into an optimist. From my viewpoint the world was pretty much fucked until I read his predictions. Now I see all the potential there is for it and for us. Makes you wanna be a part of it.
 
i think most books are life-changing to some degree, even if it's just a bit of perspective that is gained. but as far as major influence goes, for me so far it's been these two gems...

As a Man Thinketh
7 Habits of Highly Effective People
 
The Dark Side of Man. Explains the origins of human violence. [ame=http://www.amazon.com/Dark-Side-Man-Michael-Ghiglieri/dp/0738203157/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1240870164&sr=8-1]Amazon.com: The Dark Side Of Man: Michael Ghiglieri, Joshua Bilmes: Books[/ame]
