Great... but a bit annoying April 30, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I found this book well written and down to the point. The strengths: sensible forecasts about future scenarios, good investment suggestions, useful tips on how to avoid common pitfalls, helps to concentrate on few ideas (avoiding getting confused by the tons of new suggestions coming out every day from the media). The weakness: the 10 big ideas are not that original and the book is sometimes too shallow. And the annoying bit: it is OK that the authors show they believe so much in their ideas to invest in them, but it's annoying to see Jim and Al suggesting more than ones that one of the best ways to invest is through one of Jim's businesses, listed among only two or three other options. It might be me but I think I have already given them money for the book, they shouldn't try to get my money also for Jim's other businesses.

Think some of the ideas and investment tips are very good and well thought out. Easy to understand and some good advice for you to prosper in the future. Needed a little more information on some chapters about how to go about investing. Also i think you need to have quite abit of cash to if you want to invest in everything this book reccomends
 Short, without explanations, written for complete beginners March 3, 2008

After buying it with big expectations, the content was a coplete let-down,
the book is short, without explanations, and looks like written for complete beginners.
I checked few first of the investments they recomend in the book, and they performed in last 2 months very negatively, losing your money with even over MINUS -18.5% !!
This should say a lot about what the writers promote :(
 one for all February 25, 2008

I have no idea about investments. Never have. More to the point never thought it affected me since I didn't have any cash spare, but as my parents edge towards retirement I started thinking about pensions and my family's future so I investigated, looked at some books and found Jim Mellon. This book is great because it makes you realise you can invest regularly with the smallest sums of money ( or largest), tells you how, and then helps you to decide where you should invest it. It works on all levels, there are experienced investors out there - so skip the reassuring part and go straight to where you should put your money, because this guy knows.
Brilliant - thanks for the advice Jim. I'm recommending this to everyone - including mum & dad.
Good Timing ....again January 28, 2008

For those like me that benefitted over 2 years ago from the Calls made by these 2 authors in "Wake Up .." , when they correctly foresaw the increasing dominance of Asia and huge boom in Metals and commodities , should find this opportune too . This time the emphasis is on Investment basics ..getting your house in order and then a fresh look at all the key investment areas of Real Estate, Stocks commodities or Cash in straight forward succinct terms .
Given the level of global uncertainties in 2008 already ..some ground rules here that everyone should re-read .. the timing again couldn`t be better..
