Hey guys,

So I recently read a book called the No B.S. Guide To Wealth Attraction In The New Economy by Dan Kennedy. In my humble opinion, this book is in the same caliber as TMF . For those who don't know about Dan Kennedy, he is a renowned author and marketer who has helped many clients achieve financial success in the past 30 years. What Dan offers in this book is concrete actionable steps that he claims will make you a magnet for wealth. I really do recommend that everyone here read it.

Now there is one part of the book that left me scratching my head, yet the author guarantees that if you do this for 90 days, you will achieve greater wealth than you ever have before and is convinced that after doing this for 90 days, you will do this for a lifetime. Now I am as skeptical as they come, I am very logical and demand scientific research before I buy into anything, but I am willing to give this a shot just because of the credibility this author has.

Basically you do this: Open two bank accounts. One account will be a wealth account. Any amount of money that comes into your possession, you allocate anywhere between 1 to 10 percent of that amount into your wealth account. According to the author, you can not touch this money for any other reason other than building wealth (i.e investments).

Now here is the one that left me scratching my head. The author says for the second bank account, you use the same principal as in the first account, allocate anywhere between 1 to 10 percent of money that comes into your possession. Here is the kicker: You take that money and give it away to charity. According to the author, giving money away will not cause you to lose money, but the opposite. It will bring you more money!

As mentioned, the author guarantees that if you do this for 90 days, you will never go back. Like I said, this sounds hokey and weird and totally illogical but it's worth a try. Worst case, you end up saving money and doing good. You can read more about the 90 day experiment here: The 90-Day Financial Experiment That Will Put You on the Path to Wealth

Any thoughts? Am I crazy for even thinking this might work?
