Summary: Mr. Theology, let me introduce you to Mr. Economics...
Comment: After reading Paul Zane Pilzer's first book, "Unlimited Wealth", I was anxious to read this one. And since I'm a Christian, and the author is Jewish, he comes from the Old Testiment's perspective that during the time of Abraham, God promised him wealth. This well written book helps to explain the theology of economics in today's society. As also stated in "Unlimted Wealth", we have an endless supply of resources. And where one technology fades away, another one takes its place. Two good examples are how CD's have replaced vinyl records and how fuel injectors have mostly replaced carberators in automobiles. We are given the premise all things come from God, and we have at our disposal new technolgies which have the potential to increase our wealth and quality of life. There is a very extensive bibliography with excellent support for the arguments in this book. Finally, we now know that being rich isn't evil or a sin. In the final analysis, it's how we use our wealth that counts. For it is indeed the "love" of money that is the root of evil. An excellent book. I highly recommend it.

Summary: Excellent book
Comment: The amount of ignorance on this board is astounding. Why are they trying to say that Zilfer said that being poor was a sin? What page did they get that from? Maybe I don't understand English very well.
God did promise to bless Abraham, and the Bible teaches that we are children of the promise. We are to reap the blessings of Abraham in the natural and spiritual.
The bible also says that:
2 Corin 8
9For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich.
That doesn't mean just spiritually. It means naturally as well. I wish above all things that you may prosper, even as your soul prospers. Maybe somebody ommited that scripture from their Bible.
Y'all need to learn how to break free from that poverty demon who is preaching the poverty doctrine. Yes, the poor will always be with us. But we don't have to be poor -- unless we want to be.

Summary: Pilzer is Right
Comment: The previous reviewer says that, boiled down to its essence, Pilzer claims that if you aren't rich, you will go to Hell. Not quite. He states that if you are rich, you won't be condemed to Hell. In this book, he explains how and why people for thousands of years thought that there were finite resources, and that in order to increase your wealth, you had to take from someone else. Under this theory, it is reasonable to argue that G-d wants you to be poor. However, he presents a rational theory which he first explained in his earlier book, Unlimited Wealth - his theory of Economic Alchemy. From that he shows how wealth is only limited by human ingenuity, which is essentially unlimited. It follows that with unlimited wealth being available, it is possible to become rich without taking the wealth from someone else. In fact, he demonstrates in his book, how by becoming wealthly, you provide a benefit to society, improving not just your own standard of living, but the standard of living of others as well; it is only by improving the lives of others that you can obtain lasting riches - both monetary and non-monetary.
In short, he explains that while being poor is no great sin, neither is being rich.
