The Science of Getting Rich: Veroy's Preface
 

Read This Literature! 100% Success Guaranteed.

You're about to experience the original copy of an excellent business science success book published in 1910. It combines business concepts with the philosophy of success and the laws of attraction. It is a very motivating book. I highly recommend it. If you follow the concepts outlined in the book, it will force you to succeed. Some of the ideas may seem weird to readers but the law of attraction and other concepts of thought manifestation listed in this book are supported by 1000's of people including historical figures such as Emerson, Einstein, George Washington, and Benjamin Franklin. Even quantum physics theories support much of what Wallace Wattles writes about. These concepts are also mentioned in a recent video production titled The Secret which has received publicity in magazines, on Oprah, The Today Show, Ellen Degeneres, and other various talk shows.

I discovered The Science of Getting Rich when looking for additional business resources for my own education. The writing format is a little out of date but it is a wonderful source to learn how to succeed in the world we live in. If you read this book with a 100% open mind and continue to the end you will have taken the first step to becoming the most successful person you could ever be. There are a few inaccuracies in his writings, but if you give him a chance you'll find his literature very enlightening. The main disagreement I had with Wallace D. Wattles is that he proclaimed money is needed before one can truly be happy. This opinion is definitely false, however in modern society one would have to distance themselves from the world they're used to and place themselves in the middle of the wilderness somewhere they could live off the land independently and live in paradise. So, in my case, still involved in modern society I do agree that I need money in order to be happy, but my point remains. Put me in a tropical paradise with my girlfriend, the know-how and resources to survive and I doubt I'll ever leave the island.

When I found the book it had been marketed and re-written by a modern woman claiming to be helping the world by by cluttering up the internet with her version of this story. She purchased as many .com's with Wallace Wattles' book titles as she could she's trying to sell audiotapes of her barely edited version of the book for $24.95. In the book it stated that every page was free to distribute so long as you included the page about selling her audio-books. Personally I was offended that she was trying to profit off a deceased man's book of success. Furthering my internet research I realized that there's actually a handful of people trying to profit off of Wallace Wattles original texts with infomercial style, scandalous marketing. I think it is disgraceful and I plan to release free copies of all of his works if I can get my hands on them. Luckily I was able to get my hands on an original copy of The Science of Getting Rich so that I did not have to promote anyone's pitiful profit scams. I've included the entire book on Veroy.com, free of charge to everyone, and freely distributable to others. Please share it with everyone!

 

About the Author:
 

Wallace Delois Wattles

Wallace Wattles wrote a collection of books including The Science of Being Well, Health Through New Thought and Fasting, The Science of Getting Rich, The Science of Being Great, and a novel, Hellfire Harrison, but he is best known for his prosperity classic, The Science of Getting Rich.

Not a great deal is known about Wattles' life. Born in the USA shortly after the civil war, he experienced much failure in his earlier years. Later in his life he studied various religious beliefs and philosophies of the world including those of Spinoza, Descartes, Leibnitz, Hegel, Swedenborg, Emerson, Schopenhauer, and others. It was through his relentless study and experimentation that he discovered the truth of New Thought principles and ventured into practicing them in his own life. He began to write his own books outlining these principles. He practiced the technique of creative visualization and excelled the most when he was placing his ideas on paper.

His daughter Florence writes "He wrote almost constantly. It was then that he formed his mental picture. He saw himself as a successful writer, a personality of power, an advancing man, and he began to work toward the realization of this vision. He lived every page ... His life was truly the powerful life."

 

Wallace Wattles' Preface:
 

The Science of Getting Rich: Preface

This book is pragmatical, not philosophical; a practical manual, not a treatise upon theories. It is intended for the men and women whose most pressing need is for money; who wish to get rich first, and philosophize afterward. It is for those who have, so far, found neither the time, the means, nor the opportunity to go deeply into the study of metaphysics, but who want results and who are willing to take the conclusions of science as a basis for action, without going into all the processes by which those conclusions were reached.

It is expected that the reader will take the fundamental statements upon faith, just as he would take statements concerning a law of electrical action if they were promulgated by a Marconi or an Edison; and, taking the statements upon faith, that he will prove their truth by acting upon them without fear or hesitation. Every man or woman who does this will certainly get rich; for the science herein applied is an exact science, and failure is impossible. For the benefit, however, of those who wish to investigate philosophical theories and so secure a logical basis for faith, I will here cite certain authorities.

The monistic theory of the universe the theory that One is All, and that All is One; That one Substance manifests itself as the seeming many elements of the material world -is of Hindu origin, and has been gradually winning its way into the thought of the western world for two hundred years. It is the foundation of all the Oriental philosophies, and of those of Descartes, Spinoza, Leibnitz, Schopenhauer, Hegel, and Emerson.

The reader who would dig to the philosophical foundations of this is advised to read Hegel and Emerson for himself.

In writing this book I have sacrificed all other considerations to plainness and simplicity of style, so that all might understand. The plan of action laid down herein was deduced from the conclusions of philosophy; it has been thoroughly tested, and bears the supreme test of practical experiment; it works. If you wish to know how the conclusions were arrived at, read the writings of the authors mentioned above; and if you wish to reap the fruits of their philosophies in actual practice, read this book and do exactly as it tells you to do.
