Product Description
“Are you thinking there has to be more to life?  There is. Avalanche will inspire you to discover True Wealth and lead a meaningful life filled with wealth, health and happiness.” —David Bach, #1 New York Times Best Selling Author, The Automatic Millionaire and Start Late, Finish Rich

 

Meet Andrew Craver, a real-estate developer who grew up with a chip on his shoulder and an insatiable hunger for money. Though his bank account is stuffed and his home could grace the cover of a magazine, he’s exhausted, overweight, and emotionally bereft. At middle age, an ethical dilemma leaves him unemployed and without the protection of the money that he has held so dearly for more than twenty years.

 

In this life-changing parable, you’ll go on a spiritual journey with Andrew as he struggles to transform himself and find meaning and purpose amidst the pressures of life. While opening up to wealth advisor Hank Kinnick, old soul Dr. Graham, and personal trainer Tamara Ross, Andrew begins to get his finances—and his life—in order. Suddenly, disaster strikes and all bets are off as Andrew drops into the depths of despair. But it is in the darkness of sorrow that he will finally find his true inner strength—the stuff it takes to emerge enlightened into a life of lasting significance.

 

Creatively illustrating today’s most important lesson—that money can’t buy happiness—this profound tale is your field guide for redefining success and creating true wealth in your life and in the lives of the people you love.

1 out of 5 starsI couldn't relate, 2008-03-19
I did not relate to the person in this book, so therefore, I couldn't get interested or engaged. I thought it was ridiculous, and I cannot believe it has received legitimate 5 star reviews from anyone other than these two authors' parents and friends. I also can't believe it went on the NY Times bestseller list -- that is a farse. I won't trust that list again.

5 out of 5 starsAvalanche Teaches Difficult Concepts, 2008-02-29
Exceptional Life--Living the Life You Were Meant to Live

Sometimes the best way to teach important concepts is through a story. While being entertained and never bored, Sanduski and Carson have created a book that talks about "True Wealth." This is a kind of wealth that is inside of us rather than outside. It is almost like the Christian belief of creating wealth in heaven instead of outside of ourselves in the form of material items. It is a kind of wealth that lights up our soul. It is what is truly important in life.

I was happy to see that the authors touched on the concept of finding one's purpose. This concept is rarely talked about in most "self-help" books. I believe it is a prerequisite to finding all the rest of our success.

This information is important to discovering true happiness. "Avalanche" is a great introduction to these concepts.

2 out of 5 starsI was disappointed, 2007-10-17
I'm always looking for a good metaphysical story or stories based on truth principles. The truth for me about this one is, I felt like the story was rushed. So much happened in such few pages. I found it unbelievable and was disappointed that I bought it based on some 5 star review. I felt the messages they were getting across important enough to make it into a longer story. On one page he is dreaming about climbing a mountain, the next page, 6 months later he is saying good bye to his family, to run off and climb the mountain. A quick read that falls flat!
