Summary: If Regis doesn't question you, buy this book!
Comment: I'm already a millionaire several times over. My staff gave me Big Bucks! They thought it a "funny gift" for the company Christmas party. It was. Everyone laughed when I unwrapped it. I tossed it in my brief case and that evening began to look it over, then fasinated by what I saw, I began to read.
I've come to Amazon, my favorite book store, to write this review, as having read Big Bucks! I now feel an obligation to tell everyone this book will tell you in a clearer, simpler and easier to follow fashion than I ever could, how I made my money. As I read I had an eerie feeling Ken Blanchard and Sheldon Bowles were telling my story. That somehow they had got inside my head and discovered my best money making secrets. But they aren't secrets. If you make ten million that doesn't stop me from making another ten. Actually, when the economy is booming it's easier for everyone to make money. So buy this book now and pay attention.
Big Bucks! is not a "bet the farm, get rich quick or die broke trying" book. As it says on the cover, Big Bucks! tells you how to get the energy you need, and then how and where to focus that energy. It will teach you about leverage, which means turning one dollar into a thousand. You will learn the importance of having an equity position. The lessons on how to make big bucks in the job you have now are alone worth many times what you'll pay for the book. That's my advice, and I ask only one thing. After you've read it come back here and post a review for others.

Summary: Big Bucks Here I Come!
Comment: Back in January a reviewer of Big Bucks! convinced me I wasn't going to get on Do You Want To Be A Millionaire with Regis so I decided to follow his advice and read Big Bucks! Having read it I was convinced the authors, who apparently did their research over a number of years with The Young President's Organization which seems to be a club for millionaires, knew their stuff.
The first and most important lesson they say is that you can't make big money unless you're having fun. It's the old do what you love advice, but for the first time I now understand what this means. And I know why it works: If you enjoy your work you have the energy needed to be a huge success. Rather than working hard the authors say money makers enjoy their work so much that they're playing hard. I always thought I was in a dead end job. Now I understand the job wasn't dead end. I was! I didn't like it much and I didn't have the energy. I love cars though, so I took a chance and quit for an automotive related job. And at less money. But within three months I'd got two raises and I'm already making more than I was. All because I'm giving the job 12 hours of effort every eight hour shift, rather than the two I gave the other job. Best of all the eight hours passes like two and it used to seem like 12. I'm not a millionaire yet, but if this keeps up who knows I may make it. Even if I don't I'm a way happier than I was, so whoever the millionaire is who wrote the January third review, thanks. Thanks a million I guess.

Summary: Enjoy the process or do something else...
Comment: I received this book along with three others for free upon joining a real estate investors group. Thus, I was not expecting too much from the volume. I also was blissfully ignorant of the authors and their prior successful works, and have not read the other two volumes in this motivational trilogy.
As such, I was pleasantly surprised by the narrative and novel style. The use of the protagonist "Len" is quite refreshing and works extremely well. His visits to the "three Wise Men/Woman" are amusing. The three lessons learned are absolute truths in the working world and totally reinforced my personal belief that having fun while making money is essential. If you love what you do you will be great at it.
I highly recommend this book to everyone with a open mind. It is a quick read (about a weekend ought to do it) and if read and followed, is sure to enrich your life both spiritually and financially.
About my only criticism is that it is somewhat derivative of other motivational types such as Lou Tice (reticular activating systems); Ivan Meisner (givers gain);and the grandaddy of them all: Napoleon Hill (Think and Grow Rich).
