Customer Reviews

Woah

This book has hit a lot of everyday scenarios that we put ourselves everyday in and how to handle them (or at least some advise). I say this book is good for anyone that would like to grow a portfolio through real estate and in business. Greatest man the US has ever seen giving some insight.

Awesome Book!!!

As an entrepreneur, I just love Mr. Trump - this book is great, it teaches you the path (indirectly, you have to listen!) in which a billionaire thinks, and informs you - that to reach the top, it doesn't matter what people tell you your "chances are", if you believe your "chances" ,then you have little possibility of success anyway. Good tips and guidance, benefited me during some injurious times... a recommended volume to all you Trump enthusiasts, or people who just wish to discover more about prosperity and "thinking rich". Thank you Donald Trump, for this amazing work.

First THINK like a billioinaire, THEN become one!

Anyone who blasts this book is an financial failure, and they're using Trump as an easy target for their frustration. This book WILL make you think like a billionaire, which means that the ultimate objective of the book is achieved. It will not MAKE you a billionaire, though. You need to do that on your own, but at least you can think like Trump does in order to help you get there. The chapters are short, concise, and to the point. Do you think billionaires sit around and take forever to get to the point? Obviously not. Trump says what he has to and then moves on. That's refreshing and makes the book a pleasure to read. Does Trump boast too much? Who cares? He's a billionaire, and to be a billionaire requires self confidence. Nobody notices a mute, and nobody will follow one, either. Trump has done some great things, so why shouldn't he be proud? Besides, if you are to take him seriously, you need to be aware of his successes. So he tells you! Maybe I'm the only one who understands that this book isn't a step-by-step guide for anything other than THINKING like a billionaire. I read the book, and I now think like one. Objective achieved. Nothing more. Nothing less. Should I ever get the desire to become a billionaire, I now have a pretty decent start. Thanks, Donald!

Billions

There is nothing to argue that The Donald knows how to get rich. He's a billionaire! How many of us would like to say that about ourselves. This book is excellent in guiding readers in the way of the Donald. It has excellent advise and tips to give you a view of the way Trump thinks. I think this is a good book especially for those interested in making money in Real Estate. I also recommend Rohan Hall (entrepreneural wealth creation), Robert Kiyosaki (Real Estate wealth creation), Anthony Robbins (Motivation), Spenser Johnson (Change Management/Leadership). There are a lot of great book out there and this is one of them.

Interesting and Funny

Trump really has taken self promotion to an art form. I especially enjoyed the daily logs at the end of the book. There were a lot of good chapters on issues we "mere mortals" can relate to. Frankly, I liked Trump more after reading the book. Why? Because parts of his day are as mundane as anyone else. He still deals with jerks -- same as the rest of us. Only problem with the book: Trump should have included a "glossary" of "who's who".
