Has anyone purchased this book and would be willing to provide their review?

I've got the first edition of his "how to grow..." and was wondering if this book contained any new information.

I'd be more inclined to look at Julia Hartman and www.bantacs.com.au for such matters.
Plenty free material on her website too.

SFA ?

I just googled it out of curiosity and posted a bit of the ad, I didn't really mean anything bu it.

I went to a seminar last year in Perth of his, yeah I still dont "believe" in what these guys can really do for us anyway, let alone this bloke in particular

Hope that clears it up, if it's a stuff up of mine, oops & sorry

I was very disapointed with the book, just very basic information given in a long winded way, to make up volume I suppose. Would be ok for a very green novice who doesnt have any common sense. Not near as good as his previous books. In the chapter 'wealth strategies for the wealthy" there is ZIP. no useful information. No mention of most strategies even people who arent wealtyh would use. Very odd, a book about finance, tax and law, yet no mention of the coding system. SUPPERFICIAL

i managed to have a flick through it at dymocks this evening and majority of the content seems to be a rehash of his previous books.

ended up walking out empty handed.

i think the most useful section would be where he describes the different trust structures. i've been meaning to get my head around it, as his podcasts don't go into sufficient detail.

Funny you should say that. Without meaning to cast any further aspersions on the author's character; when reading that book, I noticed that large parts of the trust section appear to have word-for-word similarities with another author's books on the subject.

Hahaha! Sorry Jaycee - I thought you wrote this bit yourself -

I thought to myself, "Damn, Jaycee sure likes that blinking book! I've never seen such a rave written by anyone here about a book like that."

Hahaha! Joke's on me.

I'm guessing that's a Michael Yardney company written "review"

I got "Saving Tax On Your Investment Property" by Noel Whittaker & Julia Hartman and I think it's a good basis.
I also have all her free guides spiral bound which are even better.

Agree with your comments. I had read MY's first 2 books and didn't get much out of this book. Maybe good for beginners.

How much did you pay for that books ?
I'm interested to get that from local bookstore as I'm a total newbie in this area.
