Idiots Unite,
By Kent (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Getting Rich (Complete Idiot's Guides) (Paperback)
For being an Idiot's book, I still found some of it hard to understand. I guess that doesn't say much on my behalf. The intent of this book, though, is to tell you that true wealth comes from investments. If you don't think you'll ever be into stocks, then you might just want to find some other book to read. But-- if you ARE interested in the stock market, and you know very little, if nothing, about it, here's a great start. It won't give you everything you need to it, but it will expose you and interest you to what's out there. Believe it or not, I actually enjoyed reading this book (for the most part).

This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Getting Rich (Complete Idiot's Guides) (Paperback)
The book lays out in simple, easy-to-understand terms, the ways you achieve wealth. The writing is not preachy nor circuitous like Rich Dad, Poor Dad. What we have here is a clear, easy-to-follow roadmap to financial independence. There are loads of insights and mind-opening concepts here, so I recommend buying this book. It's money well spent.

Great general introduction to wealth building & investing.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Getting Rich (Paperback)
Before I picked this book up I was indeed an idiot. Now I'm ... well, much much less of an idiot. Filled with definitions and anecdotes, this book explains how different types of investments work. Most helpful, however, are the very basic characteristics needed to become wealthy. Rather than focusing on complex descriptions of portfolios or giving a run-down of "hot" stock tips, the author delivers sound practical advice like "cut down your spending and save as much as you can." I also liked that it was not just a "beginner's" book, but provides tips for everyone from young adults to millionaires on how to build and safeguard wealth.
