I am looking for a couple of good books to read. I was hoping to get some recommendations.

I have already read:

Rich Dad, Poor Dad
Richest Man in Babylon
Millionaire next door
7 habits of Highly Effective People

Thanks in advance

I prefer straight real estate books.
Try ‘All Americas Real Estate’ by Janik and Rejnis
‘36 Hour RE Investment Course’ by Cummings
‘Profits in Buying and Renovating Homes’
by Dworin
Anyone else have thoughts along these lines?
Thanks

Million Dollar Habits by Robert Ringer is excellent.
Jimmy Napier’s monthly newsletter ( The Money Maker Report) is the best value available today. Once a year, he sells back issues for $1 to his subscribers and you can build a library of real estate advice at an unbelievable price.

The Path Of Least Resistance… - Posted by MN~Chicago

…by Robert Fritz

This is an incredibly compelling book which

details why so many keep repeating habits

that preclude success, regardless of the

endeavor, personal, business, etc.

It also provides the requisite principles

which can lead anyone to the “creative”

ends they desire.

While it does not pertain to real estate,

it does go to the heart of accomplishing

any goal one may have in real estate, or

any other field.

Heartily recommended.

The Wealthy Barber - David
Chilton (I had to put his last name on the senond line because the server thought it was an offensive word)

I have almost finished it. It has alot of great info in the form of a novel, where a guy finds out his simple small town barber is very wealthy, and he learns from his barber while getting his monthly trim, how it is done. Very funny conversations arise and it reads really well. I am having a hard time putting it down.

A few, not all on REI:

The Psychology of Persuasion (Kevin Hogan)
Trump: The Arl of the Deal (The Donald)
All Bronchick’s Material (The Bronchick)
How To Be Rich (J. Paul Getty)
Atlas Shrugged (Ayn Rand)

I’ve read and/or reread these over the last few weeks. All are good selections, IMHO.

Enjoy!
