Hedges hits the ball out of the park with this one....

This book was written back in 1996 and boy didn't Hedges call it right?Many of those people who hung their hopes on a J-O-B now find themselves out of work and attacked Hedges for this book and it's predecessor, "Who Stole The American Dream", are probably wishin they had listened to Hedges instead of attacking him.The very popular Rich Dad series of books is interestingly sending out the same message only to a larger audience---you must go from employee to self employed if you want to succeed. The best and fairest boss that you will ever have is the one you see every morning in the mirror.I also recommend "Who Stole The American Dream", "Cash Flow Quadrant", "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" and "Wave 4."

Why your job "vehicle" ain't going where you think it is!

A great book to learn why Jobs = slavery and Self-employed = Freedom and that it's your choice as to which direction you go. And why. And what to do about it.A great book with a simple idea that most Americans never realize.I've been free from a job for years now. I just wish I'd had this book to read when I got out of college. I would have started my action plan to freedom sooner. Now I help others "plan their escape" by consulting them on how to become free by starting their own business. If I weren't there to guide them, I'd toss 'em this book instead.

Extremely motivational!!

This book is great for anyone thinking about starting their own business. If you have any insecurities about leaving the world of jobism, they will all disappear after reading this book.

A must read!

Great book that shows the perils of continuing to work for others. I loved the comparison of jobism and communism. If you need a boost toward self employment, this is it!

fantastic book for any one who wants to go into business

This is a fantastic book for anyone who wants to go into business for themselves. It is educational for those with an open mind and stuck in the (J)ust (O)off (B)roke (JOB) mentality.
