Amazon.com Review
The Energy of Money: A Spiritual Guide to Financial and Personal Fulfillment, by Maria Nemeth, Ph.D., outlines a distinctly unique approach to one of the most dominant yet forbidden topics in modern society: money, and how we deal with it. A clinical psychologist who once lost $35,000 in a fraudulent investment scheme, Nemeth learned from that ordeal (and similar experiences of friends and associates) how most of us develop relationships with money, and the ways in which we subsequently can bring these in line with our actual dreams and realities. She initially used this knowledge to start a workshop called You and Money, which eventually attracted more than 4,500 participants and led to the development of concepts now delineated in this book. Quoting relevant wisdom espoused by those ranging from Joseph Campbell and Ram Dass to Mark Twain and Dorothy Parker, Nemeth sets out "12 principles for personal fulfillment" designed to help readers "uncover the hidden landscape of beliefs, behavior patterns, and habits that underlie and sometimes subvert how you use money and other forms of energy." The result is a refreshing, useful, and surprisingly accessible mixture of universal financial advice and the much rarer--but no less important--ethereal side of fiscal self-management. --Howard Rothman

 Waking up about money August 1, 2008
Marie Nemeth takes a subject most of us would prefer to avoid and takes us on an adventure to discover how to consciously direct our money towards what we care about most. I found this book engaging, practical, wise, insightful, and clear. One chapter after the next delivers the goods--with excellent questions at the end of each chapter to cement the learning. The chapter on "Scarcity Is One of Your Greatest Teachers" and the Forgiveness exercise alone would be worth every penny! Who wouldn't benefit from having a more conscious relationship with their money! This would be an excellent book study book.The Energy of Money: A Spiritual Guide to Financial and Personal FulfillmentMastering Life's Energies: Simple Steps to a Luminous Life at Work and Play
 Possibly good children's book. For an adult, basic & painfully poor editing. March 21, 2008

The book might be excellent to those teaching their children about money (i.e., for one's children, not for anyone over, say 15). It is not necessarily bad material, but poorly edited and in any case, frustratingly basic.
One of those books where the title grabs you, but the content disappoints immediately. Slooooow reading that calls for an editor. Overly simplistic to a thinking audience looking at the abstract/psychological/behavioral aspects of money/wealth.
A sample: "Imagine if a laser beam wasn't bouncing all over the obstacles and could get right to the heart of the matter, that would be using your money energy efficiently, consciously, and powerfully...You will clear away many of the boulders that have been in your path...When you and I have an idea and begin to take it into physical reality, there is an incredible shift in the energy that it takes" For an adult, this is tiring to read.
Better alternatives are "wealthy and wise" or "everyday irrationality", "hooked" , "the high price of materialism", "my vast fortune", or perhaps more analogous is "creating affluence". This genre demands a good book.

This book has opened my eyes to so much!
Not just money wise, but LIFE wise.
What a great tool to buy for someone struggling with life.
Great concept- money is a form of energy! November 25, 2007

I found this a very refreshing concept. We grow up being told that money does not grow on trees and with many other negative connotation about money including misquotes from the bible where "the LOVE of money is the root of evil" but we are told that 'Money is the root of evil' which is a complete misrepresentation.
It is SO refreshing to think of money as a form of energy and made to go around. Money is the energy needed if we are to do what we were put on this earth to do and we need to get over our hangups and be positive about how we use this wonderful form of energy.

Boring, for the financially unsavvy August 16, 2007
5 out of 10 found this review helpful
I read this book ast part of a group, and all five of us agreed it was one of the worse books we've ever read. Here are two problems:
1. It's written for "the lowest common denominator" of people who haven't really given thought to their money before.
2. It's a slow read. The writing is full of the author's newly-coined terms that read like a college thesis.
After reading the first half of the book I started skimming the rest. It was painful to turn the pages.
