It's been  well reported that he loves watching Startrek and enjoying the good life that is provided him with the help of sycophants like \nRichard Geer and the endless money he gets from selling tickets to be in forums with dips like Al Sharpton ets. PS. I have been to Tibet and traveled extensively through out China.  Tibet don't need saving contrary to this desginer cause.

I love Tony's books, Audiobooks, videos, etc...  He is very motivating.  HOWEVER, like everyone else in that business, he wants/needs to make a profit.  He's not a church, he's a business... always keep that in mind.  We'll talk about it later.\nRead his Personal Power book, it's great, if you can read a book that thick (I don't have the time or energy to finish a book that thick anymore these days.) (I'll talk about Motivation later).  I've read both nearly ten years ago.  It was difficult to make the time.  I probably read it twice because I would go back and re-read and re-learn some of the chapters.\nThere is a TON of great info in that book.  And more great stuff in his Unleash the Power book.  Of course some of it is fluff and debateable.\nAs long as you have the motivation to sit and read it cover to cover, I think you will find a lot of usefull info inside.  Some of it you already know and use, you just don't realize it.\n90% of us don't have the motivation to sit, read and absorb that information.  We would rather watch a movie.  \nIf I told you the secrets of the world were in that book, would you read it?  Cover to cover?  No. \nI've given those books to people I cared for and people who could truly gain from the knowledge in those books.  Did they read it?  No.  \nOne of the things Tony talks about, is the reason he is so successfull.  Putting effort into something is the leaverage you need to see it through.  If he charges $100 to coach someone through a problem, Will that person follow that $100 worth of advice?  No...  \nIf a person spends $10,000 on his advice, is that person committed to making a change?  Probably yes...\nI no longer give out those books to people.  The people I give those books to have no drive to read them.    \nNow back to the business side of Tony.  I wish he was still independent and didn't create all his corporations.  He now has a large population of employees/stock holders to support.  They want to see a profit.  If you go to them, they will want to sell you something and something else, and something else, etc...  I no longer buy direct.  There is plenty of his stuff on eBay, used book stores, garage sales.  It has excellent prices, HOWEVER, by getting his books, tapes and videos at a discount, you now decrease the "Leverage" you will need, the incentive you will need to take the time, sit down, and read, learn and make that change in your life.  Remember the guy that spent $10,000 on coaching.  I bet he listened to his every word, took notes, and made a change in his life.  Now the guy who got the book for $4, do you think he read it?  Cover to cover?  No.\nDon't be that guy or girl who doesn't have any motivation to see it through.  I have seen it through and I continue on the journey.  He doesn't teach you everything.  The meaning of life is not in his books, but some really good info to help you through life is in there, only if you have the determination to read a book.  Do you?

You are making a statement that is unproven. Remember that whatever the condition of man, you will always hear from the minority that are unhappy, while the majority that are happy are too busy enjoying themselves to make themselves known to you and me. The news media will always "write" their stories about the unusual features of society, not the common. You wouldn't buy a magazine to read "Mr. and Mrs. Smith have sold their multi-store grocery chain and are enjoying their early retirement with 10-15 close neighbors in their third summer home in the Adirondack mountains.", now would you? But you would buy "C. Jones comitted to J. K. nursing and psychiatric hospital for severe depression." So we notice the unusual, not the usual. Many wealthy, powerful, and influential people are very happy and satisfied in their early, well-earned retirement. My parents are.

Very sketchy info; he left BST in 1968.  He then did work on Al Cooper's "Al's Big Deal (unclaimed freight") in 1975.  Since then, everyone I've spoken to has the same story-- he had a mental breakdown, and has been living in a mental institution ever since the episode (1977 or 1978)... "ahh... jucyfruit"

i think he is a fraud. i work with elderly people that have no money and are giving what they can not afford to him. if he was a good person he would be giving money to them.

Yes he does, but I can't recall what it is at the moment. I'm sure you can find it online though.....it WAS addressed in an episode of Voyager.

It is difficult to get it all in one go. The days you are working, and weekends are free for you but not for him. Does he need to devote his time to his students evety Saturday? Could he not swap say twice a month so that he can spend time with you and the children?\n\nIm sure there are ways around it, be it him only doing it once or twice a month. If its money, could you not try working a little extra to compensate?Im probably getting this all wrong but without being in your shoes I can only put ideas there.\n\nThere are winners here, the question is are you both prepared to sit down and work it out? In a mothers eyes, we dont see where the problem lies with sacrificing one day a month to go on a family outing.  But this is a man who is obviously devoted to his career and he enjoys what he does.\n\nIt doesn't mean that he doesn't get to see his family in the process.

He is one of these electric preachers or TV Evangelists.\nwhat ever you call them.  He makes a lot of money he is a millionaire.  On Forbes 400 list of richest men in America.\nthink he is a pedofile.  They don't have to be moral just a good snake oil salesman.

I think we're all making him rich by buying his books.  He doesn't say anything new, but he markets his product very well. We should do as he does, not as he says.  To get rich you should write books about getting rich.\n\nOne thing I remember reading in his book is to have somebody else clean your home because it makes economic sense.  It does and I'm very happy.

He owns one - it is named Necker Island.  I saw it on a snorkeling tour of the reef off it, when I was in the British Virgin Islands.  At the time, it was renting for $10,000 a night - a little out of my league as I was there for a windsurfing regatta.\n\nPssst!  I also climbed onto his floating trampoline!  It was cool!

Since simians shine in the space program....please ensure you don't scuttle or sabotage Buzz"s selection of sense.You could screw up his scheme and self worth, setting off self loathing and perhaps schizophrenia.\n\nSianora......sigh

I have my suspicions about him, just because he was also behind a blanket at night and no one was allowed to get near him at night.  So I think he probably ate and drank then.  However, even so, his meditating all the daylight hours is impressive.  But I believe it takes more than just meditation to be truly enlightened.  I mean, if he is deceiving people about meditating at night and he's not, then I don't see how he could get far in his meditating.  But who really knows the truth.

People listen to him because they are narrow-minded and his propaganda supports their pre-existing beliefs.  He survives the same way that many others get by - helps you to rationalize that your problems are the fault of someone else, and he can help you (if you pay him enough).

Hah! This is unlikely to be a helpful answer, but are you aware that Rupert Murdoch is Australian??\n\nHe owns a lot of the conservative media over here as well. I think you will find that he has discovered a very lucrative basket in which to place his eggs. This does not mean he particularly supports one political side or the other - all he supports are his own (ridiculously large) profits. If porn can also make him money, I am sure he will happily invest. He appears to support the Republicans over there because this is in the best interests of his profits, just as he supports conservativism here in Australia.\n\nEm

I was going to write a long detailed answer to this but I realized that I was just giving you an abridged version of this paper by Ray Kurzweil\n\nhttp://www.kurzweilai.net/articles/art0134.html?printable=1\n\nThis guy is no quack.  He's been recognized by President Clinton and Bill Gates, to name a few, as being on the forefront of predicting future technology.\n\nHis explanation of why the heavens are so quiet comes at the end of the paper, but everything before that is also really interesting.
