Eker's claim to fame is that he took a $2,000 credit card loan, opened "one of the first fitness stores in North America," turned it into a chain of 10 within two
and a half years and sold it in 1987 for a cool (but somewhat modest-seeming) $1.6 million. Now the Vancouver-based entrepreneur traverses the continent
with his "Millionaire Mind Intensive Seminar," on which this debut motivational business manual is based. What sets it apart is Eker's focus on the way
people think and feel about money and his canny, class-based analyses of broad differences among groups. In rat-a-tat, "Let me explain" seminar-speak,
Eker asks readers to think back to their childhoods and pick apart the lessons they passively absorbed from parents and others about money. With such
psychological nuggets as "Rich people focus on opportunities/ Poor people focus on obstacles," Eker puts a positive spin on stereotypes, arguing that
poverty begins, or rather, is allowed to continue, in one's imagination first, with actual material life becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Personal-finance author and lecturer Robert Kiyosaki
developed his unique economic perspective through
exposure to a pair of disparate influences: his own
highly educated but fiscally unstable father, and the
multimillionaire eighth-grade dropout father of his
closest friend. The lifelong monetary problems
experienced by his "poor dad" (whose weekly
paychecks, while respectable, were never quite
sufficient to meet family needs) pounded home the
counterpoint communicated by his "rich dad" (that
"the poor and the middle class work for money," but
"the rich have money work for them"). Taking that
message to heart, Kiyosaki was able to retire at 47.

Why do the vast majority of real estate investors pay more taxes than the law requires? There are 8 major reasons:
1. Ignorance of favorable parts of the tax law.
2. Bad advice from tax advisers who are either incompetent or placing their own interest above their clients.
3. Inordinate fear of the IRS and the courts.
4. Erroneous notions about losses, "shelter," deductions, and so forth.
5. Lack of understanding of the judgmental nature of many aspects of tax law.
6. Lack of understanding of the time value of money.
7. Human inertia as in reluctance to exchange rather than sell.
8. Failure to think through the "old wives tales of tax law."
In this book, I aim to make sure that you don't pay more taxes than the law requires. To do that I'm going to :
1. Tell you about tax breaks which investors often overlook.
2. Show you how to tell when you're getting bad advice-and how to find a good tax adviser.
3. Give you a more accurate picture of the IRS and the courts so you fear them less.
4. Correct your erroneous ideas about taxes.
5. Explain the judgmental nature of many tax questions-and tell you the aggressive way to deal with those questions.
6. Show you how the time value of money should affect your tax decisions.
7. Help you overcome the human inertia which causes you to pay thousands of dollars more taxes than you should.
This book will not:
1. Tell you how to start your own church or become a minister in someone else's.
2. Recommend that you put everything you own in family trusts.
3. Reveal that income taxes are unconstitutional.
4. Ask you to become a tax protestor.
5. Tell you how to cheat and get away with it.
6. Show you how you can write off vacations to Hawaii.

Purchasing tax lien instruments from city, county, and municipal governments can provide you with very high and secure rates
of return, in some cases as high as 12%, 18%, 24%, or even 1,000% or more per year. If performed correctly, investments in tax
lien instruments will far outpace stock market performance, even traditional real estate investments. The key is to know how to
perform this process correctly. Tax lien certificates and deeds are not purchased through a broker; you purchase these property
tax liens directly from the state or county government (depending on the state). This type of investment was created by state
law, and state law protects you as the investor. Investing in tax liens and deeds can be very rewarding. Tax liens can be tax
deferred or even tax-free. You can purchase them in your self-directed IRA. Interest rates vary but average between 4% and
18%. The interest rates are fixed by local governments, essentially a government-guaranteed loan. Additionally, the
investment is secured by real property (real estate). This sounds great, but what is the catch? There really is none, except you
must know what you are doing! This groundbreaking and exhaustively researched new book will provide everything you need to
know to get you started on generating high-investment returns with low risk, from start to finish. You will learn what property tax
liens and tax lien certificates are; how to invest in tax lien certificates; how to buy tax lien certificates; insider secrets to help
you double or even triple your investment, how to start with under $1,000; the risks, traps, and pitfalls to avoid; and a detailed

Here's an extremely valuable book for
anyone who has to scout out locations for
restaurants, service stations, or retail stores
of any kind. Author Richard Fenker, a
preeminent site consultant, details his
methods for picking that perfect location.
The site evaluation model he includes (also
available on disk), quantifies and weights
the positive and negative attributes of a
site. This helps you come to a reasoned go
or no-go decision. The book is as valuable
for its common sense - much of it
counterintuitive - as for the model. Fenker
peppers the book with wisdom and stories of
mistakes. That makes your modest
investment in this book cheap insurance
against buying and developing a "dog" site.
