5.0 out of 5 stars The best book on finances period !
Voted by his peers to be the #1 planner in the business, John Sestina is the undisputed expert when it comes to financial planning. The book is written in a readable format, without compromising the integrity of the complex subject. I have already given away my first copy and have ordered a second one.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worst book I've read
This guys says he's a CFP but he souunds more like a stock broker... There are other areas of planning such as tax planning, risk Mgmt, estate planning... What a one-sided view from a CFP

5.0 out of 5 stars The best book on finances period !, June 19, 2000
This review is from: Managing to Be Wealthy (Paperback)
Voted by his peers to be the #1 planner in the business, John Sestina is the undisputed expert when it comes to financial planning. The book is written in a readable format, without compromising the integrity of the complex subject. I have already given away my first copy and have ordered a second one. This is not a novel; you will want to have a notebook and hi-lighters on hand if you are serious about applying his teaching. John's clients pay hundreds of dollars an hour for his advice, and you can get his thought process here for less than twenty dollars. If you are even remotely interested in learning more about finances, I highly recommend this book.

John Sestina shows how with Common Sense you can get on track to having a truly secure financial future. The steps he describes are in laymen's terms that can be followed without having to have a Doctorate Degree in Finance. Great Book. I've given copies of this book to my family.

5.0 out of 5 stars John is the source and the most qualified, June 7, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Managing to Be Wealthy (Paperback)
in the world of Financial Planning John Sestina is the MAN. No one absolutely no one is more qualified to write about FP. No matter what your income is there's incredible tips for you. Especially at this price. He accomplishments alone are enough. Read anything by him and/or listen to his radio programs. Ask yourself who are you getting your financial information from? if you take their advice ( which is meant to help you of course) ask yourself, " do I want what they have?" John Sestina no nonsense logical approach works - he has the fruit on the tree to support his book. Again for the price how can you go wrong?

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Managing to Be Wealthy (Paperback)
This book is an absolute pleasure to read! Not only because learning the fundamentals of successful financial planning from the most qualified financial planner in the country but also the information in this book is written in a very easy to understand, very structured, not confusing language. It certainly takes the fear and myth out of financial planning. Regardless of your current financial knowledge and status, you can start to apply John's most insightful experience and valuable advice for the price of a book. This cost of this book will, for sure, give you the highest ROI. Get one today if you don't already have one and read it! Believe it or not, you will enjoy reading it too!

4.0 out of 5 stars An awesome book, April 8, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Managing to Be Wealthy (Paperback)
A simple concise way of managing your money. No fluff and it comes from a man who has done it and helped a lot of people manage their money successfully. He is a self made millionaire, not from writing books, but from actually making and managing money (unlike many other so called financial gurus)

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy this book NOW!, April 6, 2001

This review is from: Managing to Be Wealthy (Paperback)
I can't put it down. The book is concise and to the point. It feels like Mr. Sestina is speaking directly to you. This is not a book you just read and put down to collect dust. You definitely need to have a pen, highlighter, and paper so you can put his principles to work immediately. It's no wonder John Sestina is the BEST Financial Planner in the country. Get the book.
