Simply non starter,
This review is from: Are You Dumb Enough to Be Rich?: The Amazingly Simple Way to Make Millions in Real Estate (Paperback)
He reminds me of a old BBC television series called Blackadder in this there's a dogs body called Baldrick that comes up with the saying "I've got a cunning plan" in this case it's I've got a cunning plan to make you rich. The first part is to phone people to get and buy reading a script hook them into becoming another one of a growing list of investors that invest their money in this venture.
Just a few problems I've thought of: guess I just phone people at random from a phone book. After I read the script to them and supposing they're still there on the phone there probably say "who the hell are you and where did you get my number?" Even if there was some one still listening after the pitch I'd be lying if I told them I had experience and had done this before. How do I tell the first investor that I've got other backers? This book encourages lying and deceit. This coming from a man that continuously tells you throughout his book to invest in the church and to go to church. That just one of the many stumbling blocks along the way if you follow his suggestions.

Good real estate book,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Are You Dumb Enough to be Rich?: The Amazingly Simple Way to Make Millions in Real Estate (Paperback)
I believe that this book is a great companion to Robert Allen's Nothing Down. The fact that Allen wrote the forward should tell you how Allen feels about this book.Are You Dumb Enough To Be Rich is updated for the times and offers fresh material. I like the fact that the author offers information on tax liens and discounted mortgages as well. Are You Dumb Enough To Be Rich is a great book. You would be dumb not to buy it and use it. Great book. Highly recommended. |
