Intro: Who are the New Rich? They are people who make their money (quite a lot of money) by doing the minimum amount necessary to obtain the maximum effect. They do not work for others-others work for them. Their concern for money is not so much to have a great deal of it, but to have enough to achieve their objectives-objectives that are clearly defined. A blind pursuit of money is not their goal. Being financially rich and having the ability to live like a millionaire are fundamentally two different things. Creating choices is the objective of the New Rich. This book reveals how the New Rich create choices with the least effort and cost.

Intro: The Bible is the central religious text of Judaism and Christianity. The exact composition of the Bible is dependent on the religious traditions of specific denominations. Modern Judaism generally recognizes a single set of canonical books known as the Tanakh, or Hebrew or Jewish Bible. It comprises three parts: the Torah, the Prophets, and the Writings. It was primarily written in Hebrew with some small portions in Aramaic. The Christian Bible includes the same books as the Tanakh (referred to in this context as the Old Testament), but usually in a different order, together with twenty-seven specifically Christian books collectively known as the New Testament. Those were originally written in Greek.
