Trade paperback (US). Glued binding. 343 p. Contains: Illustrations. Complete Idiot's Guides (Lifestyle Paperback). Audience: General/trade. Complete Idiot's Guide to Getting Rich by Larry Waschka, Alpha Group Staff and K-SOFTCOVER CONDITION GOOD-343 PAGES-1999 PAGES BOOK REVIEW; This book explains how different types of investments work. Most helpful, however, are the very basic characteristics needed to become wealthy. Rather than focusing on complex descriptions of portfolios or giving a run-down of "hot" stock tips, the author delivers sound practical advice like "cut down your spending and save as much as you can." I also liked that it was not just a "beginner's" book, but provides tips for everyone from young adults to millionaires on how to build and safeguard wealth. This book takes away the smoke & mirrors about investing, and the author's enthusiasm about investing in contagious. I was a Suzie Orman fan and I'm sure she's a great person, but she comes off kind of arrogant: it's her way, or no way at all. Every couple of years Suzie has to repackage her advice into a new book. I've read most of her books: same song, maybe a different tune. Larry's book straight plain English with no BS: here's what you need to do, displicine is needed if you're serious, stay way of these investments, when you reach these milestones here are the considerations needed, etc. The book changed my outlook on investing. You don't need a full service broker. Buy this book, and forget paying commissions. A little research and you can just as good as the pros, provided you do your homework. I liked the way he breaks down the stages of wealth. From 1-5, stage 1 being, just getting out of bebt and start to save; stage 2 which is the point where your investments actually start showing compound growth, all the way to stage 5 which is Rockefeller type of money. I think breaking wealth down into this form of stages actually lets you realize where you are at in your quest for wealth. I personally do not think I will ever achieve stage 5 wealth and dont really care to; I do want to achieve at least stage 3 wealth. All in all this is the best how to get rich book I have read so far, and I have read a few. Filled with definitions and anecdotes, this book explains how different types of investments work. Most helpful, however, are the very basic characteristics needed to become wealthy. Rather than focusing on complex descriptions of portfolios or giving a run-down of "hot" stock tips, the author delivers sound practical advice like "cut down your spending and save as much as you can." I also liked that it was not just a "beginner's" book, but provides tips for everyone from young adults to millionaires on how to build and safeguard wealth.
