Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

The man behind Nothing Down: How to Buy Real Estate with Little or Nothing Down is back; this time, he stops just short of promising every reader untold riches. A quick look at the chapter titles--"Infopreneuring: How to Turn a Tiny Classified Ad into a Fortune," "The Internet: Your Next Fortune Is Just a Click Away," etc.--prepares readers for the journey ahead. Allen's basic advice is to get paid multiple times for the same work: write a book or a song or license an innovative idea and collect royalties for years; become a multilevel marketer and get a piece of every sale made by others in the organization. The dollars will literally roll in while you sleep, Allen claims, hardly wasting a comma on the fact that most people fail to create recurring streams of income from these ventures. The hype obscures the sound financial advice he does offer: live well within your means, save regularly and invest a significant portion of your money in index funds. However, Allen doesn't help his case by making it sound as if a 20% return in the stock market is commonplace or by suggesting that engaging in esoteric investment strategies such as writing "covered calls" is as easy as falling off a log, and much more profitable. It is too bad the book doesn't come with a money-back guarantee for readers who don't become millionaires. At least that would have been a sure thing. 150,000 first printing; $300,000 ad/promo; 15-city author tour. (Apr.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved

Review by Library Journal Review

Why do some people earn ten times more than the rest of us? Allen (Nothing Down), one of the more successful of the multitude of financial advisors, shares his techniques for creating multiple streams of stable, secure income that will lead to a lifetime of wealth and ease. Listeners will learn secrets of generating unlimited wealth, making and keeping money, investing surplus funds for the long term, controlling money, and shying away from debt, especially using credit cards. Creating multiple streams of income via investments, the high ranking of tithing, and the author's skills at protecting money help set this item apart from the countless array of similar works in this replete genre. Allen's seven essential money skills value it, manage it, save it, invest it, make it, shield it, and share it form the foundation of the material, which is crisply presented in a combination of planned text and recorded excerpts from some of his financial planning seminars. Look for this title to be frequently requested, considering Allen's high visibility: his numerous prior successful works on money management, feature articles, and TV appearances.
