"Fast profits" - only for those who have ample capital to start December 6, 2009

I stumbled upon this book and thought that it is very generous for the author to share these little-known investment tips in the form of this special book! Thank you, Jordan E. Goodman!
I had come across each of these investment tips from various places in the past. Each of them is being sold or taught by various gurus at hundreds or thousands of dollars per tip! Lesson to learn: start with this simple book first before buying up yet another expensive course or attending a pricey guru seminar.
Goodman shares 10 different little-known areas of investment where you can start investing. In my opinion, this books looks to cater to the working upper middle-class and above.
I'd like to see a book that the underclass can start off with, with little capital. If readers know of any, please let me know. Understand that in most countries outside the USA, the majority of folks simply do not have access to opportunities like the ones revealed in this book. Most lucrative investment opportunities are reserved only for the elite ruling and business classes that control the masses through command and control economies.
If you've investment opportunities like in the USA for common working folks,
please treasure it and books like these.
Read and research more before investing in anything.

Good intro to various investment strategies August 17, 2009

This book offers advice on different strategies to make money even in tough times. I think that it could have more details explaining each strategy, but it offers a pretty good introduction. I really like the chapter on tax liens and tax deeds. The author did a really good job explaining the difference between them. Investing in tax liens means paying off a property owner's delinquent tax debt and collecting the interest he or she owes to the municipality. Investing in tax deeds is buying property outright from the municipality that has already foreclosed on the delinquent taxpayer.
One other strategy that I want to point out is Dividend Reinvestment Plans (DRIPs), which involves buying stocks straight from the companies and not paying any brokerage commissions. While the author's arguments are appealing, DRIPs are not as useful as they used to be because commissions have come down dramatically over the years (Scottrade is now $7 per trade).
Overall, this is a good book, and I recommend it to those who are looking to be introduced to different investment strategies.

NOT a "Get Rich Quick" Scheme December 6, 2008

Nothing is for free, and the advice Goodman doles out proves that you can't get something for nothing. You will need to make a financial investment (albeit with some low upfront options) and you will have to work (research, study, plan, organize, think). However, I thought Goodman did an EXCELLENT job summarizing often complex and "mysterious" financial investment strategies and explaining them so that an interested and alert reader could understand and implement.
I have purchased several investment books, and this is my FAVORITE. I heard about this book on CNN (or was it Fox?) and am glad I purchased it. Don't tell Goodman (or Amazon) but I would have paid several times more for the knowledge "Fast Profits in Hard Times" imparted.
I will definitely be implementing some of Goodman's strategies. Thank you, Mr. Goodman!
