Book Description
Before the 99% occupied Wall Street... Before the concept of social justice had impinged on the social conscience... Before the social safety net had even been conceived... By the turn of the 20th Century, the era of the robber barons, Andrew Carnegie (1835-1919) had already accumulated a staggeringly large fortune; he was one of the wealthiest people on the globe. He guaranteed his position as one of the wealthiest men ever when he sold his steel business to create the United States Steel Corporation. Following that sale, he spent his last 18 years, he gave away nearly 90% of his fortune to charities, foundations, and universities. His charitable efforts actually started far earlier. At the age of 33, he wrote a memo to himself, noting ..".The amassing of wealth is one of the worse species of idolatry. No idol more debasing than the worship of money." In 1881, he gave a library to his hometown of Dunfermline, Scotland. In 1889, he spelled out his belief that the rich should use their wealth to help enrich society, in an article called "The Gospel of Wealth" this book. Carnegie writes that the best way of dealing with wealth inequality is for the wealthy to redistribute their surplus means in a responsible and thoughtful manner, arguing that surplus wealth produces the greatest net benefit to society when it is administered carefully by the wealthy. He also argues against extravagance, irresponsible spending, or self-indulgence, instead promoting the administration of capital during one's lifetime toward the cause of reducing the stratification between the rich and poor. Though written more than a century ago, Carnegie's words still ring true today, urging a better, more equitable world through greater social consciousness.

Book Description
Finally, a book about how average folks do above average things in order to achieve financial freedom. More than a “how-to” book, this is an “I can” book that illustrates how connecting behaviors that naturally exist within one’s personality makes it easier for anyone to unleash success. In this book, the author disrupts covetous schemes to instead reveal morally principled stories about what truly makes America great and how those understandings can equalize wealth injustices and improve the human condition! After years of drilling down to what truly makes people successful, Wall Streeter, Behavioral Finance Researcher and Champion of Financial Justice, Kevin J. Palmer, has unlocked how a distinctive group of individuals he calls “The Quiet Rich” used a spiritual connection to their personalities to make cognitive decisions that created wealth. Palmer uncovers victorious interpretations from hundreds of study subjects whose activities translated into wealth, from a hitchhiker turned serial entrepreneur to a grandmother who made her fortune wisely investing cookie jar money. His less traveled path of underlying research has blended powerful lessons by correlating Secret Success Standards of The Quiet Rich into common personality types that fit all people. What makes this book unique is that, until now, wealth techniques have come from instructors declaring what they think will work for others. Here, one self-discovers personal achievement practices by synthesizing the experiences of ordinary people who became successful through interpreting spiritual-self and then applying actions that uniquely fit the personality. This is not a one-man mandate that tests how to get rich. Instead, it is a collective voice of many achievers who took individualized paths to attain wealth that intuitively leads others on their own exclusive journey so that it is genuinely effective. This book shines with applied wisdom, courage, and the confidence to build meaningful, fruitful lives while amassing wealth based on virtues learned from these quiet and rich Americans that no one has known until now!

Book Description
As a financial advisor on Wall Street, Ryan Sterling had seen it all: the unfulfilled millionaires, the disgruntled divorcees, the ego-driven over-spenders. Their money was no longer a beneficial resource, but instead an incredible burden that eventually defined them. But when "them" turned into "him" and he found himself on the verge of a personal collapse, it became clear that building and managing wealth is a lot more complex than formulas or forecasts. Many of us live in constant unrest as we fill voids with possessions and chronically battle the urge to consume. In You're Making Other People Rich, Ryan explores how to use mindfulness and intention to restore your relationship with wealth. He shows you not only how to invest, but also how to be aware of consumer exploitation so that you can take accountability for your future and make deliberate strides toward financial independence.

Book Description
"Social criticism at its scorching-hot best."--Barbara Ehrenreich "Think H.L. Mencken crossed with Jon Stewart."--The Phoenix In Rich People Things, Chris Lehmann lays bare the various dogmas and delusions that prop up plutocratic rule in the post-meltdown age. It's a humorous and harrowing tale of warped populism, phony reform, and blind deference to the nation's financial elite. As the author explains, American class privilege is very much like the idea of sex in a Catholic school--it's not supposed to exist in the first place, but once it presents itself in your mind's eye, you realize that it's everywhere. A concise and easy-to-use guide, Rich People Things catalogs the fortifications that shelter the opulent from the resentments of the hoi polloi. From ideological stanchions such as the Free Market through the castellation of media including The New York Times and Wired magazine, to gatekeepers such as David Brooks, Steve Forbes, and Alan Greenspan, Lehmann covers the vast array of comforting and comprehensive protections that allow the über-privileged to maintain their iron grip on almost half of America's wealth. With chapters on Malcolm Gladwell, the Supreme Court, the memoir, and more, no one is spared from Lehmann's pointed prose. Chris Lehmann is employed, ever precariously, as an editor for Yahoo! News, Bookforum, and The Baffler, while dissecting the excesses of his social betters for his column Rich People Things at TheAwl.com. He lives in Washington, DC, with his wife Ana Marie Cox and a quartet of excellent pets.
