Dear Concerned Reader,
The class of 2006 should be very worried…
And so should you, if someone you know and love is about to graduate this year.
More than 65% of employers now say that the Class of 2006 can expect to receive NO increase in their wages over last year’s graduates, according to an April 2006 survey conducted by the world’s leading online jobs agency, Monster.com…
Even more disturbing… According to a study conducted by Penn State’s Kenneth Gray, a professor of work-force education, 67% of college grads with degrees in arts and sciences can expect to be underemployed after graduating this year!

Perhaps Mark Twain was right on the money when he said: “Some people get an education without going to college; the rest get it after they get out.”
Yet, the Class of 2006 has something going for it that no previous graduating class has had… And it can be your graduate’s “secret weapon” against the challenges he or she's about to face in the “real world.”
It’s a simple and proven way you can make sure that “reality” doesn’t come crashing down squarely on the head of your favorite grad once the party’s over and the plans begin drifting off on the summer winds.
I’m talking about a book called Automatic Wealth for Grads… And Anyone Else Just Starting Out. And it could be the most important gift your young loved one receives this graduation season… although it certainly won’t be the most expensive…
Automatic Wealth for Grads was developed by Wall Street Journal best-selling author Michael Masterson. It’s an entertaining, brief and powerful action plan your recent grad can put to work immediately – even before landing that critical first job – to begin building a lifetime’s worth of financial security.
Michael Masterson is uniquely qualified to put this plan together for your child. He’s a highly successful, world-class business leader who:
But perhaps even more important, Masterson’s a proud father of three kids who are all about to enter “the real world” themselves… And that’s why he’s taken his 34 years of wisdom about getting ahead and making money and put it into one easy-to-read book, written in plain English with the graduate in mind.
Not only does it promise to help your loved one learn the proven success secrets of a self-made business maverick and best-selling author – it walks your grad step-by-step through the process of maximizing their most valued asset: youth.
Consider: If your grad begins today with the average salary of about $30,000… earns a modest 4% per year salary increase… saves 15% of his income each year… and earns just 10% on his investments… he’d have socked away $1.18 million by age 51… $3.37 million by age 61… and $9.2 million by age 71…
Not bad, especially considering that the student in the above example is an Average Joe type with little ambition. If your kid’s a real firecracker and willing to put this plan into action aggressively, the results can be positively breathtaking…
For example, instead of pulling down a $35,000 salary in year five, your grad will be raking in an annual salary of $150,000 or more… Even better, Masterson will show your grad how to parlay that wealth into a liquid savings of more than $1 million by age 30 (that’ll be about the time the rest of their graduating class starts digging out from under mountains of student loan and credit card debt!).
Or… you can put it to your grad this way:
If I could show you a simple way to become a millionaire by age 30… with a Mercedes sitting in the driveway… with multiple homes… and with the freedom to live life on your own terms… would you be interested?
If the answer is YES, then they absolutely need a copy of Automatic Wealth for Grads.
For the first time, Michael Masterson shares his secrets for how your grad can attain all their goals – AND become a self-made millionaire along the way…
The #1 “Miracle” Resource Every Grad Possesses: Masterson explains exactly why “youth” itself is the top resource grads possess, and why it can be miraculous in helping achieve a level of wealth that your grad may never have thought possible…
Masterson’s “Cash Aside” Technique and Saving Big on Luxury Items… whatever you might consider a luxury purchase – a BMW 3 Series, a Steinway piano – learn how to get it cheaper and how to pocket a couple thousand dollars in additional revenue from the deal…
Grow Rich from a $30,000 a Year Job: The average salary for college graduates is a paltry $30,337 according to the National Association of Colleges and Employers… Automatic Wealth for Grads shows exactly how to turn that salary into a $15 million fortune by the time you’re ready for early retirement, by investing wisely and meriting annual raises of just 4%…
The ROI Factor and Your Grad: Your grad must understand how to invest his money wisely from Day One… Learn how simple it can be to increase annual return on investment from about 10% to about 18.8% using Masterson’s simple ROI-Exploder Plan…
But that’s not all… Automatic Wealth for Grads helps young job seekers to realize some critical factors about the workplace – and those who do the hiring, in particular – that can increase their chances of getting that ideal, first job right out of the gate.
Here’s what I mean…
Masterson has hired hundreds of young go-getters in his time, and trashed thousands of resumes besides. And he says that everything your grad is hearing about landing the right job is likely wrong, because it merely teaches him how to approach the challenge like everyone else. With Automatic Wealth for Grads, your grad will learn Masterson’s proven secrets for making the most out of every job opportunity:
10 Steps to Choosing the Right Career: Based on his experience working and consulting for some of the world’s leading companies – and succeeding at all levels along the way – Masterson reveals how young people can simply and quickly evaluate what career is best for them… and get started down that path immediately…
Six Questions to Ask Before Accepting Any Job: This simple checklist will help your grad to evaluate the job before he commits… and could avoid the “false start” trap many grads fall into after college, shaving years off your loved one’s effort to achieve success…
Know Your Company’s Mission: Masterson says it’s critical for your grad to understand the exact mission of the company he’s going to work for. There are only four basic kinds of businesses – retail, service, wholesale and manufacturing – and Masterson reveals which ones are the best to enter in 2006 for maximum security and income…
Job Hunting Experts Have It DEAD WRONG! Masterson has hired hundreds of new employees for his dozens of successful businesses around the world, and says that most of what young people learn about job hunting is wrong… because they’re simply taught how to do what everyone else is doing! Masterson explains 5 simple secrets your grad can use to make himself stand out in the crowd to triple or quadruple the number of job offers from the get-go…
4 Things All Young Job Seekers Must Know: First, that every cover letter and resume is more than a list of your credentials… it’s a sales opportunity. And the same sales concepts that have sold billions of dollars worth of Acuras… or the NFL… or Microsoft… can also be put to work in your application materials using Masterson’s simple techniques developed over decades of direct-marketing success…
Four Secrets Employers Keep: Grads must realize that their chances for success are better when they realistically evaluate their chances of meeting their goals with the PARTICULAR company they’re signing on with… Here are four things you MUST know before signing on the dotted line, to avoid dead-end jobs and maximize your income potential over the next five years…
9 Ways to Ruin a Good Resume: This one’s simple, but could you tell your grad the nine quickest ways to ruin a good resume? Masterson does, starting with basics like lack of focus… listing references (yes, it’s a mistake)… excluding your contact information… failing to explain gaps in your employment history… and the five MOST critical mistakes made by first-time job seekers.
Michael Masterson is one of the world’s leading authorities when it comes to building not only a successful career – but living a life that is healthy, happy and whole. His recent Wall Street Journal best-seller Automatic Wealth revealed his six-step master program to thousands of readers worldwide.
And now, Masterson’s new grad-specific program takes those same rock-solid principles of success and puts them into terms young people can relate to… including not only a plan for saving, investing and understanding money better than 95% of their wet-behind-the-ears counterparts… but also tips on enjoying good food inexpensively… being polite and courteous without overdoing it... making time for their families and friends… reducing the amount of time they waste watching television or “instant messaging,” so they can be richer and happier both now and down the road… and much more…
Even better, your grad will learn simple “legacy-strengthening” techniques to sustain their newfound wealth and happiness over a lifetime. These are simple concepts that Masterson defines exactly, showing how each can help us secure our financial future…
The 4 Commitments for Sustained Wealth: Once your grad makes four simple commitments – including getting a job that pays at least $30,000 a year and saving 15% of his income every year – this program virtually guarantees he'll retire rich – and early, too.
9 Secrets Every Young Entrepreneur Must Know: Masterson has launched dozens of successful start-up businesses, and has learned from a few failures along the way, too… Here he reveals the critical things every young, would-be entrepreneur must know about creating an exciting, rewarding business venture from the ground up with just one terrific idea… and these nine secrets…
“The Most Important Thing in Life”: It’s not money… Masterson, father of three rambunctious boys, explains how important it is for young people to “be good.” Yes, it may sound a little old-fashioned, but good manners, kindness toward others and respect for elders, and compassion for those less fortunate are values that he believes are critical to lasting happiness… Here’s how your grad can lead a values-driven life, while still taking care of the financial side…

"I have known Michael for over 20 years. He has one of the smartest business minds I know of. When he gives me advice, I pay attention - and you should, too.

Automatic Wealth for Grads contains many of the core principles and techniques that Masterson first laid out in his international best-seller, Automatic Wealth: The 6 Steps to Financial Independence.
And Masterson's message is taking hold… At last count, more than 50,000 copies of the original Automatic Wealth have been shipped from the publisher. In the sidebars on this page, you’ll see what some of the world's most effective wealth-building experts have to say about Michael's first book, Automatic Wealth.
In Automatic Wealth for Grads, Masterson redefines his core principles and beliefs for a different audience: recent college grads or others just starting out. This group has a tremendous advantage on its side when it comes to building wealth. That advantage is time.
And, as you’ll see in Automatic Wealth for Grads, that advantage impacts and enhances almost every one of the key principles at the heart of Masterson’s plan.
Perhaps best of all, the cost of Automatic Wealth for Grads is just $15.61. And after having spent as much as $100,000 (or more, for Ivy League schools) to earn that university degree, it’s a welcome relief to find that the final piece to solving the puzzle of creating financial security for your graduate costs you no more than a half-tank of gas… two pounds of coffee at the grocery store… or even less than slipping a mere $20 bill into a graduation card!
Now that graduation season is here… and everyone else has bought your grad all the new clothes, electronic gizmos and backpacking equipment he’s likely to need… take a moment and accept this offer to give your child Automatic Wealth for Grads. Within its pages, you’ll also be giving him gifts beyond value:
And while we all agree that money isn’t the most important thing, it is indeed very, very important.

Bottom line: This could be the simplest, smartest decision you’ve made regarding your child’s future, when it comes to self-sufficiency and wealth building for the long term. And don’t worry: I won’t tell anyone that it could also be the least costly.
