A book I just bought today, RM36.90 poorer:

You can become rich in property
by Peter Yee.


Pai.
This book has some details in putting properties in a company.
I have not read that chapter yet.
You may like to browse through in a book store.

I was dumb enough to read his reproduction of "property jewel" then to find out that it was a waste of time...

got tax rebate ma.. why want to "kgam kgam cham cham"?

I bought and read this book too.
From my point of view - I kinda like the portfolio with "seasons" thingy, though its very hard for newbie like me to figure out when are springs and winters...

aiyaa.. i'm also a great fault in this BS department.

sometimes tired from a long day's at work.. i find myself ridiculous to be taken seriously.

that's why i advocate sourcing real info from elsewhere than this forum.. (yes, don't have to blame no one.. i stand up to be counted) but it's good to know that you guys read.. books +1 to that

erm - i am not too sure what people mentioned in the posts before, and i'm not going to bother deciphering it out.

I agree with u Backkom. There are gems u can get from everybook you read. And I despise people who say certain books are dumb. No point being condesceding. At least the bugger is smart enought to write a book, right?

I like Azizi's "How to be a Millionaire Landlord". He's not the best author I've read, but I learned some stuff from him.

"At least the bugger is smart enought to write a book, right?"... not just that.. write, market and sell it, and profit from the sales!

I read 8 chapters and most of the things was repeated on other study material.
Yet I also learn something new too.

It's a bit harder for newbie, that is why I recommend Rich Dad 6 steps, it's the basics.

Hmm, just to let you guys know, I'm just a beginner in forums, and I'm very grateful for all the taikors and sifus who shared their precious info here. And thanks to them, I managed to get a unit in TS
(I don't dare to say that TS is definitely gonna make money for us, but at least I'm very very happy to get a unit there.)

Just to share - the power of forums...

There are people who are here to share sincerely - of course the aim, let's all make money together-gether!

Added on July 14, 2009, 11:28 pmI think it's good sharing here - helps everyone to save some time on books as many books have repetitive content
I bet Azizi's landlord book has similar content to Renesial's tenant book?

am happy for you.. don't have to reveal what "ts" is.. education is to help you discern and protect yourself (from forseeable eventualities).. if that includes protecting proprietary information.. i must say, you've done a good job! +1 to you Backkom

yeah.. both books (rl and aa) are similar in nature.. only difference is.. one's heavier and the other's cheaper

Err, nope.
There are both similiarities and differences.

it's either you're tying so hard to be a smart alec or you just failed to see that.. in all possible manner.. no two producers would want, not even a tiniest bit.. that their products are similar!!

for the 40 odd products that kiyosaki has produce.. he still fervently rejecting the notion that much of it are paraphrasing and recycled stuff.. so that you guys can continue to scout for the minute differences and paying a premium along the way.

of course there're differences la.. it's tantamount to plagiarism to claim they're the same.. but do you have to dig into nitpicking the micro details to proof that you've proof read them?!?

that's so lame!

My exact thoughts

I feel that in good forums (like the one you visited), we get to learn real stuff. Im forever grateful to the taikors and sifus from forums who guide me into property investment 4 years ago and I learnt more from these guy's real life experience VS books. At the end of the day, nothing beats experience and these guys were kind enuff to teach me stuff and learn from their mistakes and profits. This I believe has considerably shorten my learning curve.

Without forums, no TS, or even Maytower for me...............

One word of caution here, there's always gonna be good sifus, and bad ones. Use your own judgement to evaluate the advise you get.

+1 nuf said.

+2 here

thanks boss
