"The more WORDS
you learn, the more MONEY you earn!"
"Studies show that your
word power determines your earning power."
FACT: The people with the greatest command of words command the top salaries in most companies.
Johnson O’Connor, founder of the Human Engineering Laboratory, tested the vocabulary of executive and supervisory personnel in 39 large manufacturing companies.
"Presidents and Vice Presidents averaged 236 out of 272; Managers 168;
Superintendents 140; Foremen 114; and Floor Bosses 86."
He concluded:"An exact and extensive vocabulary is an important concomitant of success."
Your Words Can Make You Rich.
Dean Trembly said:
"Money earnings are related to vocabulary. Within each occupation, those with larger vocabularies are more likely to profit. Put a dollar sign in front of each additional word you learn."
Earl Nightingale, referring to a 20-year study of college graduates, writes:
"Without a single exception, those who had scored highest on the vocabulary test given in college, were in the top income group, while those who had scored the lowest were in the bottom income group."
Margaret E. Broadley, in her book 'In Your Natural Gifts', considers the Johnson O'Connor results:
"Worldly success, earnings and management status correlated with vocabulary scores. In follow-up studies of persons tested as much as twenty or thirty years ago, a limited vocabulary is proving an important factor in holding men and women back from achieving the position which their aptitudes showed they should have gained."
She adds a warning:
"A low vocabulary is a serious handicap. Ambitious and energetic persons can push ahead in their jobs just so far, but then they reach a plateau caused by low vocabulary. They never advance."
Take the advice of the experts:
"Start improving your vocabulary TODAY!"

Why do people with a powerful vocabulary earn more money and enjoy more success?
A powerful vocabulary is a highly-prized asset both socially and in the business world. There are very good reasons for this.
Words enable you to conceive and articulate complex thoughts and ideas.
It follows, therefore, that
the person who can use the right words at the right time enjoys a powerful advantage in any situation.
The more words you have, the more ideas you have. The more ideas you can express, the greater influence you have on those around you.
When you improve your vocabulary, you immediately supercharge your powers of expression and persuasion.
You open up a whole new world of opportunity.
And all it takes is 10 Minutes a Day!
Remember how VOCABULARY improvement transformed our tongue-tied friend in the film
into a dynamic, articulate communicator?
