Upon recieving this book I read it in approximately 3 hours. Not exactly harecore information. The book is too general. I expected to find some deep insight in to the working mind of a millionare. As well as some valuable info on running a successful business. As a small business owner I wanted more in terms of "how to", all that was delievered was basic reasons as to why people that work for others are not "filthy, stinking rich." If you are a serious business person, who's time is your most prescious asset, don't waste it on this book. No offence to the author, but in my opion this book is written on a third grade reading level.

I've wasted years reading almost every single "get rich quick" book out there ... and finally found everything I needed to know in this book. It's funny, easy-to-follow and easy-to-read, extremely motivating, and filled with ideas that anyone can use to get filthy, stinking rich! It's about time someone wrote a book that I can not only relate to, but also use to spend more time with my family AND have the security I need to live a happy, fulfilled life.

Herb Kay just blurts out the truth and doesn't seem to care where the chips may fall. Did I like the book? I'm purchasing 100 copies of it as gifts for my staff and my clients. Do the math. I'm spending nearly $1,500 to share a message that I deeply believe every aspiring business person should hear. No one has ever said this stuff more plainly or more boldly. You'll find yourself stunned beyond words at the things this guy will openly talk about! We're talking VERY politically incorrect. You'll be laughing and nodding your head up and down within five minutes, I guarantee it.

This book was delivered to our office on pre-release and I picked it up because of the clever title. Unlike the plethora of other "how-to" business books on the market, this one doesn't redigest information already available from other sources.

In fact, if you're looking for spread-sheet help, tax advice, or a detailed analysis of writing a business plan--go elsewhere. (In fact, Kay tells you this at the beginning of the book.)

Instead, Kay offers up insight and advice in bite-sized pieces to the beginning entrepeneur on setting up, growing, and sustaining your own business based on Kay's experiences--both good and bad.

I especially liked his advice on bouncing back from bankruptcy.

If you're looking for a book to help you succeed in your own business succeed without sacrificing health or happiness, this is worth checking out.

After some research about the author, dishonest,self-serving and unethical are the only words that come to mind. I would not advise anyone who has even the lowest form of morals to either purchase this book or subscribe to the ideas offered by this author.

This books has some great advice on how to think like a business owner. I especially liked the advice on how to make contacts to get the money needed start your venture. Another reviewer has said the book doesn't cover the "how-to" of starting a business. There are so many ideas out there it would be impossible to give advice on any of them. Since reading the book I have made many solid contacts which should get me the capital I need to begin my journey into the world of business.

What a refreshing look at how to make your financial (and the rest of your)life work. Clever, easy to understand and loaded with practical and useful info. It makes you feel like anything is possible. A very cool book.

I was lucky enough to be given an advanced copy of Herb Kay's "How to Get Filthy, Stinking Rich and Still Have Time for Great Sex" and it's great! This guy get it. Big time. Somehow, he has taken a bunch of important, step-by-step information on how to start your own business and made it into a fun, entertaining read. This is a how-to-business book yet, I caught myself laughing out loud. The other thing is he makes sense. My wife and I were talking at dinner about the book and we realized that both of our next door neighbors and our backyard neighbor have their own busineses. Now, we're trying to figure out what ours is going to be.

Apparantly, the way to get filthy, stinking rich is to write a book like this and have all the "rich boy wannabes" buy it. This book has no "earth-shattering"revelations in it; in fact, it is not even a good instructional manual. It tells the reader to get rich by starting his own business. OK, that's fine. I agree you'll never get rich by working for someone else. But starting a business is risky(remember, the Small Business Administration states that 90% of newly opened businesses in this country fail in the first year!). And this book really doesn't offer any practical info to get you started.

I have to admit that when I first heard of this book I assumed that it was going to be another "get rich quick" book. Boy was I wrong! Herb Kay offers great advice for aspiring entrepreneurs. He takes you through the process of how to get started and then, unlike any other business book I have ever read, he tell you how to delegate and trust your employees to do their job so you can go enjoy what you have created. Beautifully written, easy to read and a must for anyone who has ever thought of starting their own business!
