Cool site. Thanks :-)

Good God I'm horrible at these...

I too have the Paraliminal Million Dollar Vocabulary course by Dr. J. Michael Bennett. It has proved to be a very valuable resource.

In the course they provide a 2-sided paraliminal tape, that is supposed to teach you all the words of the course directly to your inner mind. I have only been able to listen to this tape once, has anybody noticed a significant difference in their learning ability when using this tape?

Hi Tuna Tuna Tuna

The very first time I listened to side 1 of the Paraliminal I thought it was boring compared to the other paraliminals, and I thought how was I going to get through +-25 mins of it. After releasing that feeling I felt an incredible feeling of a stream of learning occuring in my mind.

The effect of the vocab paraliminals is so powerful that you actually feel that you are learning. The word that I used when I started using Million Dollar Vocabulary was an "explosion" of learning.

The first week during use, I found my self hesitating less when I was looking for the right word. Words that aren't on the tape were even easier to access.Honestly, I felt that my speech was more fluent.

I know you are supposed to use it once a week while you are listening to the other tapes, I used it everyday, both sides, for about 5 days.

In the Million Dollar Vocabulary promotional material, Learning Strategies makes it quite clear that having an excellent vocabulary greatly contributes to the income a person pulls in.

Robert Kiyosaki of the Rich Dad Poor Dad series also makes it crystal clear, that the rich have a vast difference in vocabulary to the poor. Robert suggests learning one new investment or financial term every week and using it that week to integrate it into one's own vocabulary.

Learning Strategies compiled a lesson in the Million Dollar Vocabulary course to teach several financial terms.

I have found two good sites with investment terms, in order of preference:

1. http://www.investorwords.com/

2. http://www.hightechbiz.com/dictionary.htm

If anybody can give a tip on other resources to improve my financial literacy, specifically vocabulary, I will be grateful.
