Review

This is a must-read for all health care practitioners and especially physicians and dentists. In my 44 years of working with various health care professionals, I've repeatedly met people who would have benefited greatly from this content.

In the rapidly evolving healthcare marketplace, all physicians, new and established, employed and independent, will appreciate the thorough and detailed exam which Dr. Bar-Or gives to that most private and sensitive of areas - their personal and business finances.
His blueprint is a timeless algorithm that busy physicians should master early, and review often, just as they would with any classic of medical literature.
- Richard E. Rubin, MD, FACC, Bethesda, Maryland

The [Pillars of Wealth] books are straight forward, easy to read, thorough, yet not mired in financial jargon. In short, you can learn and do so easily ... I will go so far as to say they should be must reading for all medical students and residents.
- Dr. Stephen C. Schimpff, former CEO of the University of Maryland Medical Center
