			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After reading half of the book, I feel as though I have a good idea about where it&#8217;s headed, if anywhere at all.  It feels scammy.  Why?  So many scammy self-help authors out there asserts Napoleon Hill&#8217;s advice as their own.  It feels dirty, tainted, simpleton, and yet, there&#8217;s truth in there.</p>
<p>I have no desire to see this book through to its end.  Having skimmed the table of contents, and having read the first few chapters, I feel fairly confident that I can imagine the advice to come in the remaining chapters.</p>
<p>Sometimes, it&#8217;s not the advice, but the story, that makes a book worth reading.  I <em>do</em> fear that not seeing this book through, I&#8217;ll miss out on a little nugget that might actually be more valuable than the hour or so that I&#8217;ve spared myself by not reading this book to the very end.</p>
<p>It is for that reason that I&#8217;ve decided to not issue chapter-by-chapter updates from here on out.  The time spent writing is wasteful, not to mention painful.  It&#8217;s bad enough that I have yet to endure another hour of this trivial little book.</p>
<p>I may write a final summary, but don&#8217;t hold your breath.  I&#8217;ve written enough.</p>
