Yep, I've read it and have other books of his like Cashflow Quadrants and the book on taxes "Tax Loopholes of the Rich." There were many speculations that his story was just made up to sell books. The reason I recommend the book is because it makes you think outside the box and against the traditional approach of getting a salaried job. If you have a salaried job you know what you are going to make every year. Earn passive income, rent apartments for example. I would also recommend if you can afford it (about $500) to take the real estate salesperson's pre - license course to cut your learning curve. Most states offer this class online, in addition to the weekend offerings.
“What is the cost of now knowing?” That is the question I always ask myself. Learn as much as you can and as fast as you can. I can send you some good real estate websites and good books that are worth your money if you want. In the beginning I would start with a house single family home that needs work, fix it up, and do a lease option versus solely a fix up, flip, or rent. Stay motivated and do not let “traditional folk” tell you it can’t be done because WTF are they millionaires? Do they do what they love? Do not take NO for answer whether you are dealing with re agents, attorneys, buyers, sellers, most will tell you “I’ve been in the business 500 years and this deal can’t be done.” And your response is, “Well if you’ve never done a deal like this, then you SUCK. (That is usually when you are flipping homes) Sorry I started to ramble but maybe you should make an investing or real estate forum. If you have any questions I am by no means an expert but am respectably educated on the subject. Hope this helps.
