Summary: Keep it comming
Review: Simply because the message is profound. The truth of finanical success that this book presents is honestly a bitter pill for many of the hard working middle class to swallow. The most proud and egoistic of us might not even be willing to admit that this author has given us an honest message on why so many of us are doomed to late retirement and unsatisfying jobs. Read this book and read it well. Can you criticize? Yes. A few million dollars later. Let us not get angry, it really does not matter who finally gives us the message that we honestly need. What matters is that we learn well and utilize the lessons that we have learnt from Bruce Berman Yeah, so he's a really annoying kind of guy but reading this book gave me a slap upside the head. People get fooled and pick this up as a get-rich-quick book but once you've read it, your thoughts about money have very probably changed. A lot of the critics miss the point. Yes, it's obvious - once someone points it out. Yes, not everyone can make money the way he did but he does point out that these are just examples and he can only give examples from his own experience and the reader's experience will differ. Yes, it doesn't tell you how to make yourself rich. Remember that anyone who has any surplus money to put aside (even if it's just a dollar a week) can start down the path. The whole middle class can afford to do that. If they can't, they need to put themselves in a position that they can do that. Downsize the family home, cut up the credit cards, sell the second car and buy a bicycle, whatever it takes. This book is a starting point, not the handbook. Only you know what assets you have, skills you have, opportunities you have and what liabilities you can lose. As for children, my son's pocket money was just spending money but now its purpose is for me to teach him financial literacy. I think that this book is an excellent key on how to get started, on how to get rich. I like how he tells you why you should do the things he recommends. Explantions on what works and what does not work when trying to get rich are helpful for those who do not just want to get rich quick. This book is good for anyone who wants to increase their knowledge regarding money, especially investing. Advice that your parents have told you over and over again may not be the best advice to give. Having good grades and continuing school may help you but if you don't have the financial skills to manage your money then you will be working for the money instead of making the money work for you. I enjoyed this book because it makes you think in your future and what advice to give to my daughter when she grows up. Most of the other books out there spew out the same information, have a lot of writing and still say absolutely nothing. I Got Here You Can Too is different and does offer a fresh approach and one that actually works. Another thing I like is the multiple learning systems available via Software or book or both. I enjoyed the book and the software program as well.

Summary: Its Your choice. Its all about work ethic and knoweledge
Review: The condition of your life today is the result of the actions you have taken and words you have spoken in the past... and THESE are the result of the thoughts you have been thinking in your mind. If you want to change your LIFE, change your THOUGHTS. And if your financial life is what you want to change, then start with I Got Here. You Can Too! This book is the BEST starting place for any person to begin their journey on the road to financial success--no matter what you THINK is limiting you now. Once you learn the way the wealthy think, vs. how the poor & middle class do, then you can begin to see the opportunities all around you and your road to finanical success becomes more clear. And as good as I got here you can too! is the softeare is even better! However, you need to master the first (reading it several times if necessary) if you are to have any hope of grasping the second. Learn to THINK free, and you will BE FREE. Learn to think like an entrepreneur, and you must eventually BECOME as RICH as you will have the same thought processes that they had to become what they are. As the Scripture says "As he thinketh in his heart, so is he", you must be delivered BETWEEN YOUR EARS if you want the evidence of that deliverence to result in your LIFE!

Summary: I Couldn't put it down
Review: the first day i picked up the book, i knew i wasnt going to put it down not until i close its last pages. i am just a freshman studying Economics/Political Science in UNN when i got hold of the book. but by the time i could finish the introductory pages of the book, i became scared of dropping out of school, thank God i am already out of High school because of my state of mind; since the question was not just education alone but rather, which one first, money or school. considering the fact that money wasnt thought in school only skills and professions are thought in colleges. sincerely, it was a controversial issue for me to decide what i really wanted in life, but as i begin to unenvelope the said book, my insights and by the time i finished the first chapter of the book, i say almost all the reasons i needed to make a choice of want in life. it became real to me why i should embrace both choices simultaneously. the book has eventually changed and transformed me for the better, it has opened my awareness into wealth and foresight to business. it has expanded all my motives in life, my hopes and aspiration in business rather than paying more taxes after school. you too can read it and grow bigger and better, infact Berman was lucky to have a rich and a poor father oh! how i wished i was like to have business mentors and the need to critique there advises instead of merely going to school for education sake, you can as well get rich by just reading a book. what a chance! well if you havent seen the book, then you havent seen anyhing yet and i mean it. This is Reality Beyond The Limits of Perspection; an Extraordinary Intellectual Energy for those who desire to get sucessd in business without going to high school. think of Bill Gate (a drop out) that says it all.

Summary: 5 Stars for Berman
Review: The tone of this book focuses on Berman's experience , strength and hope for us. A word of caution. This book meanders at times, and sometimes I got lost in all the stories waiting for the point to be made. The book makes its points in stories which is fine, but the author has a way of dragging them on and not really making the point so obvious. Alas, there's the beauty of it. It requires the reader to think. In fact, I plan to read it at least twice more in the next month or two. There's just too much information to absorb in one reading. This book is about building a solid business foundation, not about "how to" do it. I found the early chapters to be very basic, but very, very good. His coverage of having a business plan made me think long and hard. It's not about the product, it's the ultimate goal that matters. How many people have a business plan? I didn't, and now I'm working on one thanks to this book. He also mentions something about financial planning. It took me a while to "get it," but I got it all right. Too many of us don't want to know anything about business processes, don't want a strong financial foundation, we just want to be rich. You've got to go through the work. I often wondered why they did not teach subjects I could use once I left school rather than teach subjects I knew I would never use." I'm giving this book 5 stars. This really is a remarkable book. It is not long, and I didn't find myself getting impatient at times, but after reading it all the way through, I find myself planning to read it again. There's a wealth of information in here. Some of it sounds repetitive, but that's the way we learn. I would advise anyone buying this book to sit down after reading it and start making a business plan for your life. Be patient with this book and after reading it through, read it again and take notes, and by all means take action.

Summary: I am blown away by Berman's Marketing.
Review: This is book is only two months old. You can now buy it on Amazon, AOL Shopping, Yahoo Shopping, Borders Books & Music, Berman's website and a bunch of others. Sales keep increasing.... This book is self published and its not cheap!!!!!!! If Berman can write a book , self publish it and get it up and on this many chanels so quickly he is a marketing guru. ...Berman has gotten a lot of attention and distribution for this book in a very short time. Most people just sit around and talk about writing books and starting businesses this guy did it.
