Top Book Recommendations - Compiled List From Podcasts

[Robin Secord]

I recently was in search of new book to listen to in the car but wanted to make it a good one (audio books are expensive!). Faced with this dilemma, I decided to look at what some of the best recommend. So I went to the show notes of the pod cast. From there I compiled a list of all the books that had been recommended (349 recommendations in all, as of podcast 105). Then I looked for books that had been recommended multiple times and listed the books by top recommendation. Here is a glimpse of the top 5. If you want the whole list, send us a message and we would be happy to send it to you (I don't see a way I can share it here).

1. Rich Dad Poor Dad - 38 Recommendations

2. Four Hour Work Week - 28 Recommendations

3. E-Myth Revisited - 14 Recommendations

4. Millionaire Real Estate Investor - 11 Recommendations

5 (tie). E-Myth - 10 Recommendations

5 (tie). Think and Grow Rich - 10 Recommendations

You sure went to a lot of trouble to compile a list of the top mentioned comic books, I know readers of fiction will be interested and entertained.

Problem is, the content of all of them, much is fluff, exaggerations, puffing deals, describing tactics or strategies that are difficult to duplicate in reality, often contains unethical and illegal practices, misrepresents RE definitions such as "market value" and "equity" and more often misrepresents title standings and rights and interests.

None teach real estate, they may give suggestions as to marketing methods of real estate, but you won't learn real estate to invest in real estate. You won't know what you don't know.

Some folks need fiction and motivation.

Did you count the books mentioned with or without replacement, in other words, if the same guy mention a book 4 times, was that counted 1 time or 4 times? Popularity counts can be skewed.  How many mentions were from those dealing in those aspects mentioned? Pundits or followers with a horse in the race?

Regardless ...... 

Thanks for your efforts!  :)
