This book is of no practical use whatever. I wouldn't have even given it a star except that I had to give at least 1. I read this book in about ten minutes. Most of the tips are not even complete sentences which would be ok if there was real insight. Nothing he says in here is wrong, mind you, but its on the level of a platitude and that's of no real use. It's ort of like saying " a penny saved is a penny earned" is useful when building a sound cash flow strategy. I wished I had spent my money otherwise....oh and about the misleading synopsis...its the ONLY real text in the whole book, its not a synopsis as much as it is the book!
