WHATEVER may be said in praise of poverty, the fact remains that it is not possible to
live a really complete or successful life unless one is rich. No man can rise to his greatest
possible height in talent or soul development unless he has plenty of money; for to unfold
the soul and to develop talent he must have many things to use, and he cannot have thesethings unless he has money to buy them with.

 
A man develops in mind, soul, and body by making use of things, and society is so
organized that man must have money in order to become the possessor of things;
therefore, the basis of all advancement for man must be the science of getting rich.
 
The object of all life is development; and everything that lives has an inalienable right to
all the development it is capable of attaining. Man's right to life means his right to have
the free and unrestricted use of all the things which may be necessary to his fullest
mental, spiritual, and physical unfoldment; or, in other words, his right to be rich.
 
I shall not speak of riches in a figurative way; to be really rich does not
mean to be satisfied or contented with a little. No man ought to be satisfied with a little if
he is capable of using and enjoying more. The purpose of Nature is the advancement and
unfoldment of life; and every man should have all that can contribute to the power;
elegance, beauty, and richness of life; to be content with less is sinful.
 
The man who owns all he wants for the living of all the life he is capable of living is rich;
and no man who has not plenty of money can have all he wants. Life has advanced so far,
and become so complex, that even the most ordinary man or woman requires a great
amount of wealth in order to live in a manner that even approaches completeness. Every
person naturally wants to become all that they are capable of becoming; this desire to
realize innate possibilities is inherent in human nature; we cannot help wanting to be all
that we can be. Success in life is becoming what you want to be; you can become what
you want to be only by making use of things, and you can have the free use of things only
as you become rich enough to buy them. To understand the science of getting rich is
therefore the most essential of all knowledge.
 
There is nothing wrong in wanting to get rich. The desire for riches is really the desire for
a richer, fuller, and more abundant life; and that desire is praise worthy. The man who
does not desire to live more abundantly is abnormal, and so the man who does not desire
to have money enough to buy all he wants is abnormal. There are three motives for which
we live; we live for the body, we live for the mind, we live for the soul. No one of these
is better or holier than the other; all are alike desirable, and no one of the three--body,
mind, or soul— can live fully if either of the others is cut short of full life and expression.
It is not right or noble to live only for the soul and deny mind or body; and it is wrong to
live for the intellect and deny body or soul.
 
We are all acquainted with the loathsome consequences of living for the body and
denying both mind and soul; and we see that real life means the complete expression of
all that man can give forth through body, mind, and soul. Whatever he can say, no man
can be really happy or satisfied unless his body is living fully in every function, and
unless the same is true of his mind and his soul. Wherever there is unexpressed
possibility, or function not performed, there is unsatisfied desire. Desire is possibility
seeking expression, or function seeking performance.
 
Man cannot live fully in body without good food, comfortable clothing, and warm
shelter; and without freedom from excessive toil. Rest and recreation are also necessary
to his physical life.
 
He cannot live fully in mind without books and time to study them, without opportunity
for travel and observation, or without intellectual companionship. To live fully in mind
he must have intellectual recreations, and must surround himself with all the objects of
art and beauty he is capable of using and appreciating.
 
To live fully in soul, man must have love; and love is denied expression by poverty.
A man's highest happiness is found in the bestowal of benefits on those he loves; love
finds its most natural and spontaneous expression in giving. The man who has nothing to
give cannot fill his place as a husband or father, as a citizen, or as a man. It is in the use
of material things that a man finds full life for his body, develops his mind, and unfolds
his soul. It is therefore of supreme importance to him that he should be rich.
 
It is perfectly right that you should desire to be rich; if you are a normal man or woman
you cannot help doing so. It is perfectly right that you should give your best attention to
the Science of Getting Rich, for it is the noblest and most necessary of all studies. If you
neglect this study, you are derelict in your duty to yourself, to God and humanity; for you
can render to God and humanity no greater service than to make the most of yourself.

Gerald Roberts Having resources certainly makes life easier, depending on who you ask they say you can buy a lot of things but you can't buy true happiness. Interesting read.

Mihai Cristian Markethive It's a magic ... I believe many people open their eyes to see this

Goran B Edstrom Thanks David, I understand how you think....

David Ogden you mention rich and contentment. You can be content with a simple life without needing to be rich. If you have travelled to remote areas of the world, You can meet amazing people who will share everything with you, for no reward. Unfortunately. their lives are often destroyed by exposure to the the modern world which they do not want or understand.
