This is an incredible story. The author, a failed, alcoholic Wall Street trader, had retreated to a monastery. It, too, was failing. The walls were crumbling. The roof was leaking. The monks were on food stamps. An ancient order was about to go belly-up. Then, one fateful day, Brother Ty decided to let God be his broker - and not only saved the monastery, but discovered the Seven and a Half Laws™ of spiritual and financial growth. Brother Ty's remarkable success has been studied at the nation's leading business schools and scrutinized by Wall Street's greatest minds, but the secret to the miracle is not to be found in any management analysis. The answer lies in the ancient texts used by the monks. Now, for the first time, Brother Ty reveals the secrets he found in those texts - complete with chapter and verse citations - and tells you how you can get God to be your broker. But even more important than the money you'll make is the inner peace that you will achieve.

"This is a weirdly interesting book. Not being catholic, I was able to read without taking offense. Brother Ty has a strange outlook on his life as a monk and the way he relates to his former life as a stock broker. It waqs worth readinf though." — Hahnenkratt2 (4 out of 5 stars)

" This book is hilarious- a must read! The main character is a loveable type A dude- this story is fun:) "
" Rather cathartic given the rash of "productivity" oriented stuff I've been reading recently, and the slightly non-traditional structure provides Buckley new angles for some pretty clever writing. "
" A light, amusing parody of self-help books; reads very like a caper novel. "
" Quite funny as all of Christopher Buckley's books are but I like most of his others better. "
" Quick, humurous book about a monastery gone wild for Deepak Chopra & his self help brethren. Ridiculous. ludicrous, and quite a few potshots at the Catholic Church. "
" A good light read. Entertaining and he gets into these waste of time and money self-help people. "
" This was perhaps the best book I have ever read. Not only was it funny and quirky, but it introduced me to Christopher Buckley as an author. Anyone who wants a quick read that will have you in stiches should pick up this book. "
" Fictional satire of all those self-help books promising to make you rich. It's funny, a good book to entertain you for an afternoon. "
" YOU MUST READ THIS LITTLE TREASURE "
" Hilarious, just like everything else Christopher Buckley has written. He created fantastically likable characters, a great setting, and a fantastic conclusion. "
" Amusing goof on religion, business and society. Fast read. "
" Really funny- but proves a point about greed. "
" Brilliant writing, as always, by the humorist/satirist Christopher Buckley. He's one of the very few writers who actually make me laugh out loud while reading. This one's a quick read-- pick it up if you like his style. "
" Hard to find, but great fun! "
