4.0 out of 5 stars Idiots Unite, February 1, 2003
By Kent (USA) - See all my reviews
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).

5.0 out of 5 stars Best investment, March 15, 2004
By Hizon "Jerry" (Makati Philippines) - See all my reviews
  
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bad cover, Great book!, May 26, 2002
By A Customer
I have to carry this in a brown bag so no one will see me reading an Idiot's book. But it's worth the embarrassment if someone does see it on my bookshelf- this is a great book on accumulating wealth for beginners. It has an easy to-read-format and gives sensible advice for people of any income level. Whether you have $50 a month to invest or a fortune, you can probably find some good tips in here. I am not a wealthy person, just someone trying to learn how better manage what I have invested and trying not to make any big mistakes. Tips include saving and investing knowledge, as well as how to start a business and how to cultivate the right attitude and habits for success.
