Do You Act Chinese?

Do You Act Chinese?
Posted By: Karen Hunter on June 24, 2009
Check out an excerpt from a book I'm publishing:


Everyone likes to speak of the Chinese and how disciplined they are. And that's because as a nation, they save more than 50 percent of their income. That alone is impressive considering that the average American struggles to save enough to receive the company match of their 401K, which is anywhere from three to five percent.

The Chinese also enjoy longer lives than Americans.



But the Chinese don't just live longer, they also live healthier lives.

Before we label the Chinese a super race, however, let's get to the root of their prosperity. And before we do that understand that the definition of prosperity does not simply pertain to finances. Prosperity encompasses good health, peace in your life, and financial well-being. Having all of these things would be considered true prosperity.
