Review by Ant, 2009-11-03
I'm a little surprised at the overwhelmingly positive reviews...."Best book ever"??????
If you are an adult with half an ounce of gray matter, this book is not for you. If you want to get into real estate investment, this book is not the place to start. If it's motivation you are looking for, you can do a lot better than this.
Both the writing style and the descriptions of the very basic 'characteristics people must develop to be successful' seem more appropriate for the 10th grade than for an adult audience.
The first few chapters provide some basic insight (very basic) into some high level financial concepts. After that, the book degenerates into a self congratulatory autobiography of Mike Summey, with very brief, almost token, referrals to Roger Dawson.
Summey comes across as a very bitter person out to even old scores with some of those who have 'wronged' him in the past, including his very own father....this in spite of his financial success.
Don't waste your time and money on this book. If you are interested in getting into real estate investment, rather get "The Millionaire Real Estate Investor' (Gary Keller), which is not an autobiography, is clearly written for a mature audience, and is devoid of personal grudges and self congratulatory grand standing.

Mike Summey - this book's co-author with Roger Dawson - has a truly inspirational life story to share. He grew up poor in the coalfields of southern West Virginia, a region of bleak poverty. He hit the road at age 15 to make his fortune. As a young man, he carried a message in his pocket and read it every day: "I will become a millionaire by age 30 and retire by age 50." And so he did, though he had no formal education beyond "a Ph. D. from the University of Hard Knocks." Dawson is also impressive: A noted public speaker, he lectures on peak performance and negotiation. His audio program on negotiating produced more than $28 million in revenues, the best-selling program in the history of business cassette publishing. You can learn much about building wealth from these men. They explain how to develop the mindset you need to become a millionaire, persuasively presenting proven (in fact, familiar) methods and strategies for budgeting, saving, investing and managing your money. getAbstract recommends their advice and their attitude.
Review by M. DiSalvo, 2007-04-09
My friend gave me this book and I kept pushing it off and never read it. Finally, I got sick of my situation enough to give it a shot.
It is very motivating and has been a wake up call to me. I have read about 2 books in the past few years. Since reading this book a month ago, I have read 6. I am as hungry as ever so I have been trying to educate myself on wealth, strategy, and real estate as much as I can and it started with this book.

Review by Michael G. Rayel, MD, 2006-08-13
Although most of the wealth-creating principles are not new, this book is well written and can still serve as a great resource for aspiring millionaires. Mike and Roger's style is very entertaining. I recommend it without hesitation.
