1 out of 5 stars NO value. Buyer be aware!   July 27, 2006
  4 out of 5 found this review helpful

The book is definitely nicely dressed, but now I have no faith in its value. Lots of false reviews...Buyer be aware


1 out of 5 stars ***RED LIGHT MEANS STOP*** They are selling dreams, and YOU are chasing them!   March 25, 2006
  12 out of 20 found this review helpful

The pathetic thing about scams like this is that we're all searching for ways to secure our future. The thing is, Peter Conti and Mr. Finkel are smart guys who did some real estate investing... then, he decided to become SMARTER and offer his "Secrets to Success" to everyone else for a fee! How intelligent is that??? Be realistic people. There are no (legal) shortcuts to fortune other than hard work, inheritance, or winning the lottery. There is money to be made in real estate, and SOME gains may be as easy as he makes them look but the bulk of them are not. Am I rich? No, but I'm comfortable enough NOT to be willing to make someone ELSE RICH by buying products that only sell dreams. Due TRUE research people. Go to CNN.COM and look under Money. They have GREAT savings tips.. great investment tips.. Go to Fidelity.com... Don't make people like THIS Rich *RICHER* in the process. Honestly... any of us can take his book.. reword a few things.. write our own book... and sell some Dreams. Its pathetic. All these GET RICH schemes are designed to get the WRITER rich, NOT YOU! When you're up late at night watching TV and see all these bogus infomercials, turn the channel... Watch Nick @ Nite, anything but the "Dream Sellers". Invest your time and money in things that you can be proud of. Do TRUE research, don't follow behind someone who's only interested in "how much money you're willing to invest in your future" AKA "are you willing to pay for the next seminar because this initial free one is replay of the infomercial you saw on tv." It's designed to get you HYPED UP. And how do I know? Well, I've never been to one myself, but I asked my roommate to go to one on "Our" behalf... U know, just to check it out and bring back some Great Information! Well, "Yeah Right" is an understatement... No great info, just a repeat of the infomercial and a list of prices for the "Upcoming Events." And myself, what I've done, is ordered information about an at-home business that supposedly required "No Selling" (How unrealistic right?) Well the whole thing was, you create a website and let the website sell the product for you... but how likely is that? I mean, of course you gotta put some effort into it and ultimately you're doing what - SELLING. So luckily I only wasted $50, but some people waste hundreds even thousands on this type of stuff... Don't but the HYPE people. Don't buy it. Just accept that everyone in life is not going to have a mercedes and a $500,00 home... but if you really want it, work hard for it. Put in the time, the effort, and the research... there are honest ways of making a good future but you have to be patient. And again, I say, do not follow the Dream Sellers like Carlton Sheets, Russ Whitney, Peter Conti, Mr. Finkel and all the others.. unless you have a strong desire to help Them get Richer while you look on in awe!


5 out of 5 stars Great Book   February 26, 2006

These guys know what they're talking about. You can learn what they teach by experience, but you'll save yourself a LOT of money by just reading their book!


1 out of 5 stars Stay away from Peter Conti   October 11, 2005
  15 out of 18 found this review helpful

As other reviews have said that the author does not spell out the specific language needed for deals. That is because they want you to sign up for their Real Estate Seminars. Stay away from Peter Conti and his company. I have had a very bad experience with them and do not recommend.


1 out of 5 stars You wont learn much just by reading   October 9, 2005

You wont get rich by reading this book. It takes real world experience to start making money. Be prepared to fail many times and possibly lose money before making a successfull sale. Talking people into something takes practice. Get a communication book first. Then you can achieve in any businness not just real estate
