Summary: My friend...my #$#$!
Review: I went out and bought this book after a minute or two "scan" in a bookstore (Yes, I paid retail & tax!...What was I thinking?) A couple of things caught my eye and I left it at that. After about ten pages of the author calling me his "friend"...I realized that I was STUCK with a thick drink coaster. It really is a big commercial for his other writings. It's loaded with testimonials as filler and no true substance...which is what I look for. I missed the boat here! After the first 100 pages, I'm still waiting for some (whatever that is) useful details. Do I take a gamble and finish this thing?

Summary: Why I picture a car salesman
Review: Unless you want to read an infomercial on the author's other books and products, do not waste your money on this book. The content is non-substantive and goes into very little detail on "how to build zero cash into 7 figures." Hicks gives anecdotal examples of how people who read his books had huge success in real estate throughout the book. I got very tired of the condescending tone of the book and every section seems to start with "If you follow my process, my good friend, Ty Hicks will make you a success." I would've never thought this, but, my good friend, I couldn't wait to go back to reading Kiyosaki's Rich Dad series.

Summary: Estrogen issues
Review: When I read the negative reviews by others, it reminded me of a women's joke that came over the email today..... it was a list of ways to tell if you are having estrogen problems. One of the tongue-in-cheek answers was "when every one around you is having an attitude problem". I think the negative reviewers are greatly exagerating. I enjoyed the book because of the author's positive, encouraging, attitude and perspective, having been involved in the business of loaning money for years. I think his writing reflects optimism that beginners can appreciate. There are numerous helpful ideas, checklists, and formulas. His emphasis on pre-purchase analysis to assure positive cash flow was good, and reminded me of the principle that Robert Kiyosaki teaches about having an asset buy another asset. (Rich Dad's Guide to Investing). I also liked his comments about credit cards. I didn't mind the letters of successes from his previous readers. They added to my own encouragement and determination to press on to garner some financial victories for myself. Rather than a "re-hashing" of his old materials, I would say it's a collection of his most poignant and pertinent tips in one place. I think there's more than $11 worth of information here... definitely worth the price.
