This Week's Topic: "Rich Mind, Poor Mind: Your Beliefs About Money"
In the 1987 movie "Wall Street," Gordon Gekko (Michael Douglas) declared that "Greed--for lack of a better word--is good." Is it? Or is money the "root of all evil?" What are your beliefs about money, and how do those beliefs affect your business profitability and your personal income?

Our guest in the first hour is best-selling author and personal finance guru Eric Tyson. His book, "Mind Over Money" takes a holistic look at money and how people relate to money.

Eric Tyson, MBA, is one of the nation's best-selling personal finance book authors and has penned five national bestsellers (he is also the only author to have four of his books simultaneously on BusinessWeek's business book bestseller list). His Personal Finance For Dummies (Wiley) won the Benjamin Franklin Award for the Best Business Book of the Year. He is also the author of Investing For Dummies and coauthor of Home Buying For Dummies and Real Estate Investing For Dummies, among other titles.
