Great Read

Myron discusses easy principles and concepts that most never think of. So glad I found this book. Do yourself a favor and get it.

[Mike Lawrence]

Excellent Principles shared in this book, but with some dates info

I definitely recommend this book to anyone desiring to learn how to break free financially and get on the path of financial freedom. I appreciate how easy the book is to read and understand. Some of the examples in the book are dated and most of the links are broken. However I still recommend this book because the principles it teaches are timeless and will help those looking for financial freedom. I would love to see the author release an updated version with modern examples and new links for further learning. Either way it is worth the read and I’m even having my 20, 17, and 14 year old girls read it! Life changing stuff for sure!

Simple principles to build wealth

This book provides universal principles to build cash flow without complicated concepts. I like the simple visual illustration of the thoughts of the poor vs rich. I thought it was clear that skills are needed to develop the habit of creating systems for your business to become free to think instead being an employee of your business limiting your time to work on growing the business.

[Janice Adams]

Not what I was looking for.

The website links that were listed in the book. Did not work. The author mostly boasted about his success. I didn’t receive what I was looking for in the book.

[Angel Veliz]

Interesting find on kindle store.

I read the whole thing and did not complain. I like the advice it taught me and I will remember this information. I recommend this book to someone who wants money advice.

[Lydia Nance]

Amazing! The value in this book is unbelievable. I am so glad that I read it. Transforming!

[Dwayne Small]

practical

,I love this book. He was very transparent of how he made his wealth so you can follow. And it’s all things based on biblical principles.

An Encouraging Guide for Anyone Ready to Rewrite Their Financial Story

In From the Trash Man to the Cash Man, Myron Golden offers readers a motivational account of how he rose from humble beginnings to achieve financial success — and how others can do the same. His message is clear: wealth begins with mindset, faith, and the willingness to take consistent action.

Golden’s writing is accessible and conversational, which makes complex ideas about wealth creation feel manageable. He draws heavily on personal experience, blending life lessons with simple financial strategies, all anchored by an unwavering belief in personal responsibility and perseverance.

While some readers might wish for more depth on specific financial strategies or business models, the book’s real strength lies in its motivational power. Golden doesn’t claim that wealth happens overnight; instead, he stresses that disciplined thinking, faith, and hard work are the cornerstones of lasting success.

From the Trash Man to the Cash Man is best approached as a mindset manual rather than a technical financial guide. It’s ideal for readers who need encouragement, perspective, and a powerful reminder that their past does not define their future.

A motivating and practical reminder that anyone can build wealth with the right mindset, faith, and persistent effort.

Impactful Book from an Impactful author; needs update

I love Dr. Myron Golden! Wisdom he shares on YouTube for free is incredible and will make you wonder why we are not paying Him for the impactful content he delivers.

This was a great read, very similar to “rich Dad poor Dad”, but Financial principles are what they are. No matter delivery of the content, principles are the same. I appreciate learning of Myron’s story to get to where he is. A revised version of this book would be incredible, but at the same time this is more of the genesis of his story, and details of where he was at that time. Him and his businesses have both come a LONG WAY since this book was originally written, so I do not believe that a revision would be possible. It would have to be a new book with the same principles.

Ultimately, it was a good read, and I thoroughly appreciate not just a financial principles, but also the traps that he covers within this book as well, that will hinder us from financial success.

If you recognize that this book was written in the mid 2000s, but you appreciate the wisdom and principles for what they are, you will find value, insight, and a roadmap to a truly transformed financial life.

Better financial wisdom than I’ve ever received

This book is life-changing. I am on a hard-core mission to obtain wisdom. I’m tired of being broke all the time, and this book has shown me why I’m broke. Not only that, it has given me a truckload of tools to generate wealth. I’m excited to change my future and the future of my family! Thank you, Dr. Golden!

I also ***highly*** recommend his YouTube channel where he discusses these principles in many different videos.

(Note: many of the links in the book are no longer active because he has changed what classes he offers. Just do an internet search on his name, and his current sites will come up.)

Education aimed at Legacy Development.

I have been following Mr. Golden a few months and when I realized his books were available on Kindle with no wait. I couldn't wait. Read this one while making dinner and relaxing in the evening. Just a wonderful educational experience. I will be adding this to my children's reading list as I homeschool. I'm raising entrepreneurs and future business owners. Thank you, Mr. Golden.

[Felice Ross]

Thought Provoking & Informative

I really like how the information was presented: inclusively and simply. There were things that I was familiar with and had even somewhat implemented but lacked in follow through, that Mr. Golden clarified and confirmed for me; giving me plans of action. That’s what kept me reading. There are some very useful life nuggets in this book that I believe can help everybody;, especially young people today who have the drive but not the discipline.

[Hayley M.]

Life Changing

I stumbled upon this great man on YouTube and decided to read his book. It was a great decision one thing I’ve decided to do this month is the 6 Cans. This book is a quick and great read. I would advise you to take your time and let what’s within these pages sink in.

I highly recommend this book as a starting place for those who want to get on the path to financial literacy and independence.

Great Read! Great Principles

I remember meeting Myron Golden years ago at a networking marketing seminar. His talk was profound. Trash Man to Cash Man book was discussed there but I didn’t purchase. I am so glad this book came back around years later watching his YouTube videos. So many great principles & knowledge to take with me. Brought a couple of the books he recommended reading as well in the book. Happy took the time to read this

[andre b. mitchell]

Loads of practical and applicable information

I enjoyed this book so much. I got introduced to him hearing him on the social proof podcast...the knowledge he provided there created a new perspective for me. This book has everything you need to step up to challenges and start becoming the better version of yourself that you desire. Great read!

[Jordan Anderson]

I would highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone. Just the pure way the concepts on how money works and is spent are well worth the retail price of the book alone. I also enjoyed the little nuances that the author included about his personal journey of overcoming financial bondage. This will definitely be a book I reference continually.

[Sanchez JONES]

informative

This book was eye opening, I’ve read others as well and implementation of the processes in all of them will change the lives of not only me and my wife but my children, children’s children, and there’s as well! Focus is key for me right now because I agree 100% with the principles.

[Deirdre Reen]

A really good read

Was a very short book could read it in one sitting if you’re a fast reader, maybe two. Lots of valuable information for people that were never taught anything about money. I know how to survive, but don’t know how to thrive.

It’s a pity all the links are old and don’t work anymore.

[Shonta Alexander]

Very practical book

I saw the author on Damon Davis program and I was inspired and wanted more info. I love how practical he was with real live examples. I must read this again so I can be well informed and put this info to work for me.

[Emmeshia]

Amazing!

This book was amazing! I learned so much! He gives all of the tips for how to become wealthy and how to change the was that you think from a poverty mindset to a prosperity mindset. I highly enjoyed this book.

[Jaime Rejas]

[Amir Wilson]

Good financial lessons.

The book is about 16 years old but the principles are timeless. It helps you look at money and how we view our relationship with money. Most importantly it makes you believe you can change your life with actionable steps. Good read.

[Carlton Lewis]

Down To Earth & Pratical

I decided to finish this book because I had started it a few weeks ago. There are so many great mindset tips and practical tips on what to do and not to do that I am going to reread this to get the most out of this book. Thank you Myron.

Good principles easy read

Solid principles. Good read. Easy to understand. Fix the links in the kindle version or remove them. My opinion Network Market still doesn't work. But maybe you can prove me wrong. Cite your Bible version. Give more context and don't quote the word haphazardly.

[Sierra]

Very informative!

I enjoyed this book from the beginning to the end. I will definitely be using the six can method of money management to change my financial situation! Thank you Myron!

[zoraida rodriguez]

Awesome

Great information. I was glued to the pages. Awesome read, motivative, and inspiring.
I would recommend this to anyone who wants to be involved in prosperity.
Thank you.

[Gabrielle Triyono]

Delightful read with practical wisdom still useful for today

Though this book was made a while back, the wisdom in it still lasts to this day. Grateful for it and applying what’s been covered (and eager to apply what I am not currently doing)!
