I want any opinions of Stefan Aarnio and his book "self-made - 5 secrets that transform ordinary people into self made millionaires".

A little backstory, I went to a local REI group in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada and he was the host of the event. He sounded legit. Some of the things he talked about were similar to the material on Biggerpockets, except it was Canadian and it felt fresh. I talked with him for a few minutes after the networking was over and it felt like I could pick his brain for hours, so I bought his book instead.

When I started reading his book, it felt guruish.  You know, the motivating hype of what investing in real-estate can do for you and the results, but as I continued reading, it felt real.  How real-estate investing is not just some cakewalk, it's a jungle.  What skills that need to be developed if you want to be truly successful.  So many gold nuggets in this book to the point that I have to re-read the chapters 3-4 times!

Thanks in advance!
