Half common sense and half irrelevant to Aussies

Half common sense and half irrelevant to Aussies.
We can not buy houses for 50k in Melbourne!
good theory behind his story "don't work for money, make money work for you" but it isn't that simple in real life!

Talks so much but says nothing at all

Gutted that I wasted my Audible credit on this book, it starts off kind of interesting with $100% true stories of his childhood and then turns into a lot of filler around a repetitive mantra of "Don't work for money, make your money work for you".

The most valuable advice in this audio-book is to weigh your balance-sheet so that your income is higher than your outgoings, if it were that easy, don't you think everyone would be rich? We're not all living in a dream world, selling $20,000 first generation Xerox printers to companies that are currently printing with plates.

He also advises that you do some pretty illegal sounding tax-avoidance by setting up a corporation before starting to brag about making a buck out of peoples home foreclosures pre-2008 with some pretty snakey tactics.

Comes across as a real piece of work 6th generation rich kid that thinks it's easy to make money, you just need to ask daddy for a little kick-starter and invest in all of those zero work, high return assets such as property, but apparently, he didn't even do this stuff himself, looking at other reviews indicates he made his "fortune" with his pyramid-scheme get-rich-quick tutorials.

My advice - spend your credit elsewhere.

Wasted 6 hours of my life listening to this book.

Very disappointed with this book. He sort of tells you what you need to do with out going into any detail about what to do. The book is very repetitive, he also says to take risks, but no detail what to actually do. He tells all these "stories" that don't make any sense.
He is also planting seeds about paying for his 3 day education course on real estate, which I have actually already payed for before listening to this book. I am now having second thought about attending. He makes a sale pitch about buying his board game also. In my opinion this book is not about giving information, it is about getting more money out if you.
I do not recommend this book.

Outdated, Repetitive, Vague ...and Repetitive

If you think you’d like some fictional financial advice given to a 9 year old in the 1950’s, that revolves around flipping foreclosed real-estate prior to the 2008 GFC, you’re an idiot, and you will probably love this book. The first half is a fictional retelling of the author’s childhood. It is boring, heavy with repetitive pseudo psychology regarding finance in the 50’s and the “9 year old” it centres around is a poorly developed character, whose personality and maturity change sentence to sentence. The second half offers almost no specific financial advice, just vague idioms like “make your money make money”, etc. The only hint of advice you get is a sense that the author, having written this book prior to 2008, is a big fan of investing in foreclosed properties (GFC anyone?). The book ends with a chapter that is essentially an advert for the author’s other books - classy.

Dangerous financial advice warning

Solid ideas for weslth creation but some unbelievable and at times risky financial advice could lead the uneducated astray. i.e dont pay your bills let the government pursue you into debt collection while you reinvest your dividends or house deposits. Grain of salt required.

Great book

Liked that it opens your mind to other ways of thinking. A great story of learning and application of education, it gets you thinking in a different way- the secrets to the rich!

Simple

Didn’t learnt much, might be better for those less learnt of finance, never uses too much detail and so leaves you wanting more
