Summary: A book that can turn your financial life around
Comment: I am continually amused and amazed at some of the newer books that are coming out and people scoop up their information making it appear as though what they are saying is something new.
For example, I keep hearing the accolades going towards a certain author who is pushing the "10% solution" aka "save the first 10% of what you make."
Charles Givens beat that concept to death back in the 80's and 90's in his books, workshops and even on his informercials. In More Wealth Without Risk, Givens devotes a whole chapter to it.
It seems the more things appear to be new, the more it is just the old recycled.
That said, I wholeheartily agree and endorse the 10% solution no matter who is recommending it.
In More Wealth Without Risk, you will also find a complete encyclopedia of information on how to create wealth and from a entrepreneurs perspective. No doubt, what made Givens controversial was the fact that he was a businessman attempting to convince others to do the same. Thus much of his book talks about the virtues of starting your own business, investing in real estate etc. Givens convinced me of the value of becoming a entrepneneur myself.
There is much information on how to reduce taxes, how to invest profitably in mutuals, a chapter on using a margin account and a chapter each on tax liens and discounted mortgages.
Givens also explains the right way to buy life insurance as well as information on how to reduce "ripoff insurances" like credit life, maintenance contracts, extended warranty. You will also find certain types of auto insurances that you do not need.
Overal, More Wealth without Risk is a great book. Some of the information, such as certain taxes information needs to be updated but the meat is there and cert aintly you will find more useful information in More Wealth Without Risk than say in JBQ's Making The Most of Your Money, a outdated and very ineffective financial tome.
I also recommend Givens other books Financial Self Defense and Super Self.
For more information on tax liens and discounted mortgages check out The 16% Solution and Robert Allens excellent book Multiple Streams of Income.
For more on the philosophy of what Givens teaches in More Wealth Without Risk, I recommend The Millionaire Next Door and Rich Dad Poor Dad.
Charles Givens bought a $90,000 Excalibur for $20,000 so I am sure, he would agree with Stanley and Danko on buying things except he would be more aggressive in pursuing income via business and real estate investing, in my opinion.
More Wealth Without Risk launched many millionaires. The principles work.

Summary: Best financial book ever!
Comment: I have read this book three times in the last few weeks and everytime I do, I use another of Givens' ideas to make, save, or protect my wealth -- without risk. The Money Movement Strategy is amazing. Givens' proven strategy is so simple yet unemotional that I don't need to get caught up in stock market day to day moves. Even though his book stops with 1994 statistics, I researched how his strategy would have worked up until today. AMAZING! When interest rates hit 9% in 3/00, the strategy would have had you move your money to money markets. Guess what? You would have gotten out and missed most of the decline that has followed.
Since reading the book, my husvand and I have saved thousands by increasing deductibles on my health and car insurance since we are healthy and have newer cars. My husband increased his exemptions on his W-4 (wasn't claiming any) giving him extra 20% biweekly in his paycheck. We are putting that directly into savings or an IRA.
This is the best financial book ever! I have given copies to my friends because there is something in it for everyone, no matter what income level, age, or whether you work for yourself or an employer. Get this book -- it will pay for itself many times over.

Summary: Saved big with the tax strategies
Comment: Before reading Givens grondbreaking classic "More Wealth Without Risk", I was one of the Millions of Americans who foolishly overpaid on my taxes all year and got that once per year tax refund. What a mistake!
After following Givens advice, I now have that money working for me and my family instead of giving it away to the IRS and getting it back interest free.
Unfortunately this is still a major mistake (overpaying taxes to get a once per year refund) by millions of Americans. Come tax time, they feel they have pulled a fast one over on the IRS
when they get that refund.
