Rating: Summary: The reader will benefit from first-hand knowledge Review: This book is very well written, and the author is obviously college-educated, despite specializing in a risky-area of collections, and treading a thin line between exerting pressure on debtors and getting into trouble from law enforcement for crossing the line on socially acceptable behavior. It's an easy read, humorous, insightful, but obviously... making the transition from book to reality is a big step that few readers will attempt. My guess is that this book is for the experienced collector, who wants to take the next step, and open up his own collections agency, as opposed to operating in the mainstream, or being employed by someone else. It reveals a part of what goes on in the marketplace, between consumers and retailers & banks, for example. In that way, it's very practical and realistic, and considering the price, is an affordable way to know more, and to get out of the ivory tower of university or college based techniques or theories regarding how to get results as soon as possible, and get paid for your work promptly. Clearly, the author knows his stuff, has made a career out of it, and is not writing this book from having seen too many movies or what not. The reader will benefit from first-hand knowledge. Finally, take the book with a grain of salt, considering that only a small percentage of people will actually be physically fit or mentally skilled enough to undertake the author's business plan and collections strategies, as I mentioned above.
Rating: Summary: This book [is horrible] Review: This book tells you nothing about collections that you haven't already seen in the movies & with your mental sterotypes. It borders on criminality ... I recommend it to convicts & gangsters.
Rating: Summary: Should Be Illegal to sell or Read this Book!!!! Review: This is a how-to book on how to be a bookie and collect the money when they don't pay up. It even goes so far as to describe how to physically intimidate them to pay. This is disgusting. Please stay aaway from this at all costs...
