Unabridged Audiobook
I like Trump's books. Down to earth, strong style that helps keep motivation high for pursuing financial goals.
I don't know why this had only a 2 star rating, but the audiobook is a lot better than that. In this book, Trump is his usual self....T R U M P! Having an entrepreneurial spirit myself, I respect the man. He's using his marketability to the full extent. Although some of the information in the book doesn't seem quite "real," it's very entertaining. Reading between the lines, you can start to see some of the complex workings going on inside "The Donald." How does he do it? It's so much? Well, he's a master at it. It takes time, and persistence to reach the heights that he has....(no wonder why he can get up to 250K+ per appearance!). The best part of the book probably comes from his journaling of "a week in the life." It helps in instilling confidence in the reader to make decisions and move on to other things. In otherwords...Get it done. Excellent for those liking money.
I loved this book, and so will you. Trump gives his public the book we all wanted to read, by the only guy who could have written it. Like any great business man, Trump adjusts and changes with the market demand. In this book, Trump admits that he makes adjustments from his last book. I reviewed his last book on this website, and let me save you the trouble of reading that review. I can't imagine that anyone liked "How to Get Rich". Trump gets this one absolutely right. A very good book.
Doesn't tell you anything you need to know. He should be fired from writing books.
Trump in entertaining, and he is trying to teach you how to "think like a billionaire". But this is the only true value of the book. His direct advice is useless, but if you listen to his logic and reasoning on all of his decisions, then you can take lessons from how to think efficiently.
Useless for anyone interested in real estate investing
I like Donald and like him in interviews and TV shows. But this book is boring. He just talks about the people you should hire to get the job done: real estate agent, interior designer, the right contractor, etc. I believe he uses "great" at least a thousand times in his book. In the second half of the book he talks about the new episode of "The Apprentice", and the boredom goes on. Too bad, I would have liked to learn something from this great business man.
Decent read/listen ... and I really like Mr Trump - he's an American worthy of our study. However, I'm not sure what he was going for here - the content is mismatched against the title. "Think Like Me" would have been a more accurate title ... I didn't think it was much of a "wealth building" coaching book for the average professional. Many of his so-called recommendations are just impractical for anyone who does not already have financial independence (or close to it), and a few of his statements were so "over the top", I couldn't be sure if he was going for a laugh or being serious. For example, paraphrasing here, Mr Trump said of taking a vacation, "If you really love doing your job more than anything else, why bother? Who needs a vacation? " Really??!
This book was simply entertaining and does not give you insight to think like a billionaire, it gives information as to Donald Trump's social life, the Apprentice and what Donald 's likes/dislikes are about how to think like a billionaire. Alittle disappointed but was good entertainment.
The Donald on interior decorating, landscaping, fashion, etc.? You've got to be kidding! A truly painful listening experience. Halfway through the 2nd disk, my cd player refused to play any more of it! Don't waste your time.
Not much substance in this book. Interesting if you want to hear Trump brag about himself, Name Drop about his Celeberity and Talk about how great "The Apprentice" show is. I am a Trump fan, but was disappointed with the total fluff and lack of anything useful out of this book. Sorry, Trump, but as far as an author, you should be fired.
Typical Donald Trump, this book is full of self praise and how he thinks about life. Not a lot of valuable advise.
Now we know why Trump is a businessman and not an author . If you want to read a diary of how proud Trump is of the people he knows, the clothes he wears, and the excrutiating details of his day, this book is for you. If you want to learn anything at all about investing, real estate, or business, there are a thousand better choices out there.
While this is just a book and it has not much to do with Trump's real-estate dealing... this book is a true shame to Trump's Organization. I am very suprised that DT would allow this book to be published.
I was disappointed with this book. I would have liked more advice on investing, especially on investing in real estate. I don't need advice from the Donald on what the best hamburger is or where I should get my cufflinks from.
Unless you are a big Donald Trump fan, skip this one. Most of the book is taken by Trump exercising his ego and dropping names. It wasn't worth my time.
