Summary: I loved it
Review: This is the book we have all been waiting for. While there are plenty of books written by millionaires, unfortunately too many by paper tigers with no real world experience, a few by billionaires, how many are written by a billionaire with a hot tv show with the status of Donald Trump? The one and only!

Regarding critics, Mr. Trump addresses this in his book (for those of us who have actually read it. I doubt if any of the one stars reviewers have read it) Are they really worth worrying about? I doubt it. If they were successfulthey would be out doing some deals themselves not in front of a pc day and night bashing good books and highly successful people like Mr. Trump.

Great book Mr. Trump. I am looking forward to your next foray!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: some pearls and wisdom, but title is a misnomer
Review: Overall I liked the book and I am not particularly a fan of Mr. Trump. However he has had good times and not so good times personally and professionally. I think there are a lot of pearls and wisdom scattered through the book about dealing with life. The book is really not How to Get Rich,but about certain lessons he has learned about the ups and downs of his life. It is an easy read, a lot of short chapters. Buy the book and donate it to the library when you are done with it.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: The title of this book is very misleading!
Review: I'm sorry to say that this book does not give me any real insight in how to do better real estate deals. The book would have been brilliant if the title was simply "My Ego". It's like a mini-autobiography that just covers his prime. Then by the end it turns into an infomercial for his TV show. I don't know if I want to even consider reading "The Art of the Deal" because if it anything at all like this book, it is mislabeled and will not truly help me make better real estate decisions. The only thing this book gives me is leverage in a Trump watercooler/dinner discussion. That's about it. :(

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: I was forced to give at least 1 star
Review: I would have given 0 stars if given the opportunity. This book should not be titled "How To Get Rich", because the buyer may actually think that is what the book is about. Instead the book should be titled "How a Rich Man Feels About Himself" Trump's only advise is really common sense. He does not tell the reader how to get rich but more so how he (an already rich man) doesn't shake hands to avoid germs, drinks diet cokes, talks on the phone all day (making deals - which of course is not elaborated on)and reads newspapers and magazines. If you want to know a little bit about Trump's life, this book is for you. If you want to know how to get rich, find another book.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Donald Trump got ya....
Review: The book was pretty plain and gave really no insight into what it is titled. The book should have been named more appropriately. A name like "Trump, everday life as a CEO" might have been better. Yes, he gave tips on how to get rich, but his tips are more like what he needs to be everyday in order to maintain his position as CEO and maintain his wealth.

This book was very easy reading and the concepts are something a 4 year old can grasp. I guess I should have read "Art of the Deal" (which to my understanding got much better reviews, than this book).

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: FOR WHAT DOES IT PROFIT A MAN?
Review: Yea right...ao we want to be like D Trump? I dont think so.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A bit like a marshmallow
Review: Donald Trump is fascinating, certainly successful at many things (including promoting himself and paying divorce lawyers), and a moderately interesting read. If you want to read some bromides from an obviously driven man (and get a little inspiration to be driven yourself) then this isn't a bad selection. If you really want wide-ranging, thoughtful business or money writing, well, this is not the book you need. Sorry, Amazon, I got this one from the library. Donald doesn't need more of my money.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Pearls of financial Wisdom....?
Review: One word for this publication of total crap is garbage. Some of the stuff included here are things like don't shake hands because you may get germs. Dont buy cheap suits because they wear out faster,and dont go to an interview in New York city dressed like a cowboy... Complete and utter dreck...

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Written in a day
Review: This book was obviously written very quickly in an attempt to capitalize on the success of the Apprentice. It has very little substance and nearly all of his advice is common sense. The Donald could put his name on a list of Twinkie ingredients and some people would rave.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Trump at his best - being Trump
Review: This is a book about what Trump likes to do best and that is to talk about Trump. That means that those who want to get another look inside of Trump's world will enjoy it. Also there are a few points on how he sees business that are worth the read. It is an easy read that should not take more than a couple days to complete. If you are looking for deep advice on business, do not purchase this book. However, if you are looking for an enjoyable read with some good points to consider, this is your book.
