Summary: I hate spam about as much as I hate republicans
Review: This Allen took the liberty to spam me, so I thought I would take the liberty to bash his book. Who thinks they can get rich by reading a paperback book? People who live in trailer parks who can't articulate a sentence to save their lives buy these books in the hopes of getting rich. Do they really think the rich are going to give away the "code" to success to them? Please, this Allen guy will walk on your back as he has walked on others. Go ahead "Joe Lunchbox," send him the little money you have. Go buy a suit, spend $6 on a haircut, borrow some money from your great uncle for startup cash, and get into your minivan and go make some money!! I believe in you.

Summary: SPAM artist milks the rubes
Review: It doesn't take a genius to get rich if you are willing to drop your ethics along the way. The fact that this guy is a spam artist as well as a get-rich-quick snake oil salesman should be enough of a warning to those with any sense. I feel pity for the suckers who are desperate enough to chase these empty promises, but they are born every minute.

Summary: Inspirational Work
Review: The work of Robert G. Allen might give some insights to the reader, and it is inspirational to a degree endeed. At the same time, the reader will see how the author makes money, - he sells his books and ideas.
This book will not make anybody rich except may be for the author, but probably each reader can get something useful out of it.
Not a bad job Mr. Allen.

Summary: Did you flunk high school algebra?
Review: If you did, then most certainly some of the information in this book could prove enlightening. For example, you will learn that, through the miracle of compound interest, $10.00 invested per week over a long lifetime will make you a millionaire in time to afford a decent funeral.The rest of the advice in this book is equally pedestrian. True, Mr. Allen does offer a short summary of the many ways in which an aggressive, persuasive, clever, skillful, and possibly lucky or unsrupulous individual, can amass a fortune. These include real estate, multi-level marketing and internet sales. While the techniques may be simple to understand, however, they are rather more difficult to implement in practice and that is where the luck and skill come in. You will not acquire those talents by reading Mr. Allen's cheer leader like prose. Don't buy this book. Save your money and use it to open a bank account.

Summary: Harassment Anyone?
Review: I made the mistake of ordering Robert Allen's book over the Internet, through an unsolicited email. BIG MISTAKE. The book was nothing more than a rah-rah, you too can make a fortune being an aggressive, harassing pain in the neck and walking into people's homes and saying "Hey, I own your house!" And, if I had no morals, no ethics, no scrupples and wanted money at all cost I'd follow along, especially the chapter where he talks about getting a good deal selling his grandmother. Actually, you could knock over a bank which is quicker. Yes, Robert Allen makes millions of dollars thanks to his pushy aggressive, annoying sales team who call constantly even after you've asked to be taken off of their list. They pester millions of people worldwide until they buy his products. Someday someone, perhaps the IRS, will catch up with Allen but until then he will make money at everyone's expense. Steer clear... I imagine cult leaders make a lot of money too, and Allen isn't far removed.

Summary: Spam Artist
Review: Anyone who must spam me to get me to buy his book rates 1 star. I abhor any unsolicited spam as much as "writers" hawking a get-rich quick scheme using "tricks". So you probably understand why this one ticks me off.

Summary: Excellent!
Review: I picked up this book from my local bookstore because I recognised his name as recommended by "rich dad poor dad" author(altough for another book- Creating wealth)and i couldn't put it down till I was through 3 days later. If you want financial freedom this book is a must read. Robert's style of writing is fun and easy to understand.It gives you insight and knowledge on how to make money and how to make it quick and easy. I am not a friend of this guy,i never even got any spam mail but all I know is I have read this book and it is good!

This is once more one of these books living of people who think you could make a fortune without any sweat... just like the work-out machines that claim to give you a sizpack without any work-out... of course there might be some smart tips in books like these, but the bottom line is that robert g allen is the guy who makes most the money thanks to this book. and i am here because of spam i have recieved so no thanks to this author...

Summary: Good, solid advice. On the money. Ignore paid bashers.
Review: It seems that anytime a person comes up with a novel idea that really works, there are bashers right behind attacking that person and the advice. One case in point; President Bush's tax plan has been widely criticised from the start and is gaining ever increasing attacks by certain political parties. But..the fact is that that tax plan is stimulating the economy and certainly a better choice than raising taxes. Likewise, Robert Allen offers unique advice on how to build and create wealth. It goes against the norm of just save money. Or if you invest, buy just blue chips. Don't be an entrepneur, go to school, get a good education a good job (and a good downsizing too) Here is another one. Just buy real estate through a broker or agent. If you can't afford a down payment, you can't afford to buy the home so just pay rent and throw your money away. How about another one. Don't invest in real estate you may get stuck with that property (you might have a nice piece of property that will create financial independence too) Or, MLM is just a pyramid scheme. Then ask them to explain what a pyramid and you usually get a "I don't know type of look." My usual response is to draw a chart showing the hierarchy and when they say yes, that is a pyramid, I'll say, "Oh you mean like IBM, GM, Colleges, Churches etc.?" Multiple streams of income will help you achieve just that---multiple streams of income. You can do it with very little money or even without money. Allen provides multiple ways to create income; internet, real estate, MLM, inforpeneuring, stock market, options, covered calls, discounted mortgages, tax liens and more. Multiple Streams of Income is a book that is perfect for the times. Certaintly no one really believes that the words job and security go together anymore do they? Allen provides strategies that have created millionaires and will create many more. I also recommend Nothing Down, Creating Wealth and The One-Minute Millionaire also by Allen. ASIDE from the overall advice by Allen, his book turned me on to Network Marketing. I am a USANNA Dist and a shareholder. Enjoyed a nice 2,000% gain this year on that stock and a nice residual income while helping other people. I also like the fact that Allen teaches the WIN/WIN Philosophy something these bashers and promoters of baically overhyped.worthless books and products need to learn. Great book Mr. Allen. I am looking forward to your next foray!

Summary: Multiple Streams of Spam
Review: I have not read this book, but I have received SPAM advertising it. If this guy is a respectable author, does he have to spam to advertise? I'd keep away from his work.
