Book Overview
The Seven Laws of Money tells how to live with money: how to get it, care for it, and forget about it. An underground classic among corporate executives, accountants, and entrepreneurs since the 1970s, it is rooted in the author's commitment to right livelihood, to learning how the world works, to a willingness to "fail young," and to networking. Phillips shows how to combine these principles with the seven laws to engender a healthy, fearless attitude toward money.

It's not really about money.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
If you are looking for a book on how to accumulate the maximum number of green backs, this book is not for you. If you want a simple philosophy of money which will make you wealthy in more than just the material sense, buy this book and read it at least twice.I first read this book almost 20 years ago, and every time I got greedy, and broke one of the Seven Laws of Money, I paid dearly for it.
There IS something here
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
I first read this book several years ago and not too particularly impressed I put it on my bookshelf and forgot about it. The other day it literally fell off the shelf and landed at my feet. I had completely forgotten about the book. It's a short book; why not read it again I thought. I did and was captivated. What happened? I would have given it two stars before, now I'm giving it five. I changed: In the intervening years I have become somewhat financially successful. Back when I first read it I was looking for some method to make money and didn't find it in that book. Now I know there is none. All books are mirrors of their readers as are these reviews. You have learned more about me than you will ever learn about The 7 Laws from reading this review. What can I tell you? Read the book or don't. When you find that no method or technique ever really works then you won't need this book or any other.

michael phillips is one of the most refreshing thinkers in the world of money and business. this book from the early 70's has much important wisdom for anyone concerned with the subject. the original by random house has been out of print for years and is well worth finding if you can get your hands on a copy. it's totally 70's san francisco, but is richer than the shamballa abridgement.
Bears rereading every few years!

I have just read this book for the third time, and got even more out of it than the previous two.Phillips is a "hippie capitalist" and has refreshing wisdom about the traps money can land you in. The book is unrelentingly honest.If anyone knows where Phillips is now and what he is doing, please let me know.Marcia Yudkin, Author of nine books
Use it as a bible or a roadmap, it stops you worrying
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
This is one of the books I own two copies of, one for myself and one to loan out to others. It helps you to channel energy away from worrying about money to using and understanding money in your best way. Warning: It may change your life. And, like good wine, it ages well.
