Seems like since everyone is on the “investing” bandwagon, every road promoter has jumped in pitching get rich quick real estate programs… Reading books…That is a great way to get an education… Beats a $5000 seminar any day!

addicts, single-mothers, poor people, middle class people, rich people, whoever is willing to listen.

And then I'll officially be one rich son of a *****!

I just finished reading "Why we want you to be rich" and "6 Steps to Succesful Real Estate Investing"..and I am now working on a book about Landlording..Just wanted to say Hi.My New Years resolution is to start my own business and buy a property.:) :goofy:

And remember you get rich on OPM, not your own money.

Real Estate and other businesses are no different.That is why they call it business building, and not get rich quick.Thank you for the informative post.Joseph Ratliff

Hey everyone,If anyone has read "Why we want you to be Rich" by Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki you will understand why I am suggesting this to many of you, but it is not for everyone.

If you want to put all of your investing energies into one arena of investing only (instead of investing in multiple types of real estate), then in the long run, again you are not going to last.Real estate has been called the "best way to get rich slowly" and if you think about it, it is the literal truth.

People don't offer to make you rich in 4 years for nothing.

Other than that, I've read Rich Dad, Poor Dad, Down to Earth Landlording by Don Beck, and Buy Low, Rent Smart, Sell High by Scott Frank and Andy Heller.
