Summary: Follow Michelle - Think like a millionaire
Comment: In order to appreciate this book, one has to know what it is really about, and - even more important - what it ISN'T about.
The One Minute Millionaire is not about teaching you the secrets of making loads of money. It is about getting yourself into the right mentality to make loads of money.
The story on the right-hand pages of the book illustrates the point very nicely:
Michelle, a widowed mother, must earn one million dollars in 90 days to gain custody of her children. Unlike most of us, she does not have the luxury of thinking this feat is impossible... Impossible or not, she has no choice but to get the job done within the required time limit. And this lack of choice leads her to an extraordinary adventure of discovering and challanging her own limits.
The story itself is, of-course, fictional, but the lessons the reader learns from the story are very real. After reading it, you'll gain some perspective on what it takes to actually make a million dollars: a great desire, a good team and a lot of guts...
If you have these things, you can become a millionaire. It would probably take you more then 90 days, but you'll still reach your goal of one million dollars far sooner then you ever thought possible.
Final tip for those who buy this book:
When registering at the One Minute Millionaire website, do not give your real e-mail, because they will sell it to junk mail companies.
Apperantly, the authors are not as Enlightened as they want you to be... But this should not hamper your goal of becoming an Enlightened Millionaire. You can use the millions YOU will make to fight spam. I know I'll be using mine for this purpose.

Summary: Good inspiration, but watch out for the web "extras."
Comment: As many people have pointed out in their reviews, this book doesn't tell you HOW to make a million dollars, per se. However, I think if this is what you are looking for, you should instead look at a book on basic personal finances, such as Suze Ormans book which are quite readable.
However, this book does have it's strengths. The strongest of these strengths is what some reviewers have negatively termed the "feel good" aspects of the book. I believe, that beyond a knowledge of basic financial issues, you attitude IS the most important thing in achieving success in ANY project. If you goal is actually to make a million dollars, you have to believe it possible, and believe in yourself. In many ways, fictional stories are the best at this. If this doesn't work for you, there are many stories about how so-and-so made their fortune, or found success. You'll find that the common theme in such stories is that THEY ALL DID IT A DIFFERENT WAY! There isn't a formula, other than believing in what you are doing and working the steps in your personal goal. In the area of inspiration, and the idea of multiple streams of income, this book is quite good.
My MAJOR dissappointment in this book, and reason for the average rating, is due to the fact that if you sign up for the email tips, and web site extras, you basically have sold your name for junk e-mail. I know this to be true since I use a different mail address for anything like this I sign up for. Immediately on signing up for their web extras I was swamped in junk e-mail. That's so dissappointing.

Summary: Encouragement and Hope
Comment: As long as the reader understands --upfront-- that no one can REALLY make a million bucks in one minute (at least, not starting from zero), they'll probably enjoy this book, and get a few good pointers from it.
The title isn't deceptive, however. It refers to a BUNCH of minutes that, together, will add up to a bigger bank balance for you and at least a CHANCE that you'll evenually be a millionaire.
Thought the book's financial advice isn't exactly sophisticated (and at times, it is even inaccurate), I think this is still a worthwhile read. Why? Because it offers a lot in the encouragement and hope departments.
Through a series of "Aha Exercises" the authors help readers to BELIEVE that they CAN turn their financial situation around. To me, that's worth the price of admission.
