The Science of Getting Rich

Well, I was definitely hoping to find some good dirt on The Science of Getting Rich program, but so far no luck. Everyone who has taken the time to put comments or reviews of this system online seems very happy with what they received for the extremely hefty $1,995 purchase price. Of course, these are all affiliate marketers so why would they say anything negative?

It started with a book by a man named Wallace D. Wattles entitled The Science of Getting Rich. This book was published in 1923 and is now in the public domain. That means, among other things, that you can read it for free on Wikipedia. The book takes a philosophical approach to obtaining wealth -- mind over matter; change your thought patterns, change your life. Then in 2006, Rhonda Byrne produced a film based on the principles in the book called The Secret. This film can be purchased on Amazon starting at $19.99. The film features presentations by Michael Beckwith, Bob Proctor, and most notably Jack Canfield, author of Chicken Soup for the Soul. After the film's success, Rhonda partnered with Bob Proctor who had already expanded The Science of Getting Rich into a series of seminars and audio lessons.

You can obtain the information in this program for $19.99 by purchasing The Secret DVD on Amazon and reading the book on which all of this is based for free on Wikipedia. Or, you can pay $1,995 for a leather briefcase, an mp3 player preloaded with Bob's audio lessons, and a packet of instructional material based on the information in the original The Science of Getting Rich book. Also, you get tickets to Bob's seminars.

If you join the affiliate program to market this product, your level 1 payout will be $500. Your level 2 payout will be $250. If you are a good enough affiliate to sell a product worth $19.99 for $1,995, I highly recommend this product. If you don't think you will be able to sell a product at a cost that is $1,975.01 more than it is worth, then I recommend avoiding this program.

p.s. If you had a bad experience with this program, I'd love to hear about it.
