The other negative reviewers are right
26. Juni 2009
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I've read so many good books on business and finance - but this isn't one of them. There really is no substance, and the few pieces of value that you find could have been presented in a 20 page PDF file. I too found myself skipping over many paragraphs because the author kept repeating the same vague information over and over and over and over. I kept grinding through, hoping for the big payoff at the end but it never came.

Big load of vague hot air
22. Juni 2009
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I don't usually review books on Amazon, but this one irritated me enough to make the effort.
This book is a new age self-help motivational screed in the guise of financial planning advice. There are a few interesting points made, a lot of questionable ones, and some potentially harmful suggestions.
I found myself skipping whole paragraphs of the author repeating himself and his vague platitudes for the umpteenth time. I felt like I was holding my breath, waiting for him to get to the meat of the financial advice... all the way to the end.
Guess what I found at the end? Several sales pitches for his and his friends seminars, websites and books.
As another reviewer said, the 'meat' of this book would only fill a single chapter. The rest is fluff.
Don't follow the (possibly fradulent) positive-reviewing sheep, and don't waste your money on this book - if you really want to take a look, get it from the library (like I did).

Good advice, but could have been written in 20 pages, not 271!
2. September 2008
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I agree with the majority of the advice in this book. I've always thought the stock market was just a legalized pyramid scheme. It makes a lot of sense to focus on how to increase your personal productivity and income. BUT there were two overwhelming thoughts I had while reading this book:
1. Wait - didn't I just read this same sentence 5 times? It felt like the author kept repeating the IDENTICAL phrases over and over again. Like he was just trying to fill enough pages to be able to publish a book.
2. Is this a book or just a 271 page advertisement to take the author's financial seminars?
So, while it is good advice, be prepared to skim alot of pages because it is extremely repetitive. And I would say that this is a book to borrow from the library because once you've read it, there's no need to reference it again.
