Amazing book, I call it "simple n sweet" just like the other book I recently read 'The Tao of Pooh'.... It's just essentially a bunch of short poems/quotes dedicated to specific topics like family, money, health, success, etc. Looking at his bibliography I think Hendrith was a poet before writing this book so yeah, that makes sense. I mean it's stuff you can read over and over, print and frame, post on IG, whatever. I see people are doing exactly that all over. Really is a classic book, we'd be a better nation if every American read The Wealth Reference Guide.

They told me this book was amazing. I bought a copy, albeit an older edition... It was only ok. Some pretty good haiku but just not easy reading and not structured. I will give a new edition a read and see how it go.

Ok book. There's some really really great content in this book, but its overshadowed by it being a overall badly put together book. I guess that's why a lot of people around the world quote Hendrith Smith but his book sales seem to be trash.

[Nikki Seymour · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great book. Great author. The content is almost over-simplified. To some people they can't appreciate how basic and simple it is because it seems almost unintellectual. But I think that's aligned with the authors Bahamian heritage. He takes complicated ideas and makes it really simple. Almost too simple too basic for some people to understand.

Truly lovely.💕

Truly love all the quotes from this book. Theres no other modern book that's so quotable. So much wisdom.

[Jackson Barnes · Rating 5 out of 5]

For a Gen Z like me, this book is perfect. Hendriths over-simplified style and the way he takes big ideas and refined them into just a few quick sentences of haiku.. I love it. I just use the content a page at a time, a piece at a time. And I use it more like a reference just like the title.... Just lil bits of knowledge I can refer to..

This book is like vitamin-packed food for the soul. Like thirst quenching water on a desert journey.... just Wow.

This book is legendary. A treasure for many generations. I think people will still be quoting Hendrith in the year 2100.

Beautiful poems of great wisdom! But best read page by page, not really continuously as a book.

Absolutely a soul reviver

[Shanelle Brown · Rating 5 out of 5]

There is so much thoughtfulness in here, so much depth of wisdom. How Hendrith managed to put it in such simple haiku evades me but it's genius. I do hope future editions have better editing & production though - the book could use some real improvement in that area.

[Elizabeth Paul · Rating 3 out of 5]

Saw a quote from this book on my friends Facebook timeline. Then again saw another on my sister's Instagram then another on a strangers snap. So I decided to read the book. It's got some pretty good haiku! Wish it were more streamlined though.

Hendrith is like a Millennial version of Rumi mixed with John D Rockefeller mixed with Steve Jobs, LOL. Great haiku!

[Selene Palatka · Rating 3 out of 5]

The book has great content, just wish it were better organized.

[Arnold Reid Schwab · Rating 3 out of 5]

A few revisions and this book would be kin to the Tao Te Ching. Great content but not well put together.

The Weal Reference Guide was good .. some classic keepsakes.. kind of like a modern version of Andrew Carnegie The Gospel of Wealth.
