■ Publishing the 『Bible of Wealth』 ■

Everyone wants to be rich.
I sometimes dream about what I would do if I had a lot of money, and imagine how my life would change.
Money really does play a role as a problem solver in many ways.
Sometimes it intervenes in the life and death of people, makes the impossible possible, and contributes to the advancement of humanity.
Money may be the history of mankind itself.

It is true that we have nothing to say when asked what money is.
Round metal pieces, bluish paper, plastic cards, interchangeable media, etc.
So the answer to the question of how to make a lot of money is even more difficult.
Anyone who knows the answer would already be rich.
There are countless books and materials in the world about how to become rich, but the reality is that only a small number of people are actually rich.


For example, even if you become rich, it is not easy to inherit wealth.
There is a Korean proverb that says that a rich man cannot survive for three generations.
But there are those who have passed down wealth for three thousand years.
They have continued to pursue wealth regardless of time and place.
It is a well-known fact that they are Jewish.
According to 2015 statistics, the Jewish population is estimated at approximately 14.31 million out of a world population of 7.4 billion.
Jews, who make up about one-five-hundredth of the world's population, control most of the world's economy.
At this point, I feel like there's something about them.


"The Bible of Wealth" is a book that provides a clear answer to that question, and is an educational book that analyzes the traditions they have received.
As such, the contents of this book explain why they cannot help but be that way. "The Wealth Bible" explains the Jewish method of wealth creation for three thousand years in ten steps.
Author Rabbi Daniel Lapin says money is a quantification of human creative energy, and that the accumulation of wealth is the result of meeting the needs of others.
In other words, if you have accumulated a lot of wealth, it means you have worked hard to do something that many people want.
It introduces money based on the Jewish educational theory that has been verified by history, and analyzes the principles that enabled them to achieve wealth.
The Jewish accumulation of wealth is ongoing, and today it calls us to dream of even greater wealth.


■ Book Overview ■

The Bible of Wealth reveals the secrets of wealth throughout three thousand years of Jewish history.
This book summarizes the Jewish approach to money and wealth.
It explains in detail through 10 steps and subheadings, including their career outlook, interpersonal relationships, establishing self-image, coping with imperfect environments, leadership, responding to change, predicting and preparing for the future, the concept of money, donations and good deeds, and outlook on life.


"Many European Jews, despite all odds and facing cultural differences and discrimination, achieved great financial success. One way they overcame these challenges was by using the names they chose to communicate to people exactly what help they could provide.
Glazer Jacob was the town's glass maker.
Drucker Isaac was a printer, and Diamond Joseph was a jeweler.
Weinberg produced and sold wine, and Peller owned a tannery.
Schneider was a tailor, Cooper made barrels, and Wasserman carried water.
They were not ashamed to link their identity to their livelihood. - From the text

A Jewish person's name was often associated with his or her occupation.
They proudly promoted their profession and were able to naturally accumulate wealth through good interpersonal relationships.
Also, no matter what job I had, I knew that I was the most important employee of the company called 'me'.
A well-versed Jew knows the difference between being a "wage slave" and doing business, and even though they are employees, they are doing business.

Jewish leadership is different from the common concept.
They define a leader as 'someone people follow.'
If you want to learn how to lead, they say, learn how to follow, and never miss an opportunity to demonstrate leadership.
It introduces methods that make typical leadership training programs pale in comparison and emphasizes the fundamental qualities of a leader.

Another reason Jews created wealth was because they were proactive in adapting to change.
It is not easy to navigate between change and familiarity without losing core values, but we have achieved change through gradual rather than abrupt methods.
I knew that innovation and change were absolutely necessary evolutions, and by responding to them without missing the moment, I was able to achieve wealth.

Anyone who can predict the future can become rich.
The Jewish method of predicting the future is to exclude emotions and find clues to predict the future in the past and present.
When looking into the future, they blocked out all unnecessary stimuli and created an environment where they could predict the future by spending time in a 'receiving state' rather than a 'transmitting state' in their own way.
Their receiving state was one of the most important ways to gain wealth-creating energy and ideas.


'Money is the quantification of human creative energy' is the Jewish concept of money.
It's a sad story, but my money is really me and your money is really you.
Money has no physical form, but it is a measure of value and a symbol of trust.
Jewish tradition supports the movement of money and the creation of wealth through that movement.
Jewish control over money is demonstrated through donations and good deeds.
The Jewish interpretation of giving and good deeds is that giving is like investing, and good deeds remind us that we deserve success.
They believe that giving will make you better off and bring you more in return.
They explain that giving is about gaining control over your money, and that wealth accumulation is achieved by those who have that control.

It is said that Hebrew does not have the words for 'retirement' or 'coincidence'.
The absence of words is the absence of concepts.
Jews do not aim for retirement, but rather aim for longevity and caring for others.
The author says that life is business and business is life.
If we consider that Jewish life itself is a business, we can only conclude that they cannot help but accumulate wealth.
The Wealth Bible is a wealth guide that provides a wealth of information that can serve as a cornerstone for achieving wealth.
What author Daniel Lapin tells us today through this book is to accumulate more wealth by benefiting many people.


Few books analyze Jewish wealth as thoroughly as The Wealth Bible.
Author Daniel Lapin is a Jewish rabbi who has given numerous lectures on Jewish wealth creation and accumulation, including to businesses, synagogues, and churches.
The message of this book, which compiles the contents of his lectures, is not limited to Jews.
It will faithfully serve as a guide for us living today to run towards wealth.
