Well. I like Robert Kiyoski. I read his first book RDPD in 2003 and just finished second book on cash-flow. I also read his 'success stories' book. I read his contemporary articles on yahoo finance on regular basis.  He is making quite good money out of this businessLamp
   I like this concept and I advise every member to read first 2 book. I is must read. Warren buffets kind of ppl gives accidental approach to making money whereas this guy gives planned approach to making money (he calls it financial freedom).
Basant jee, can we distribute RDPD from TED fund Smile

Yes Vipul Jee, Robert is a really good writer. I have read his books too some years back. I especially like his idea of "making money work for you" rather than the oher way round, after a certain point of time. Also, his RDPD series related to "buying real-estate" is really good, wherein he says something we all hear all the time: "Value buying".
 
His real-estate book also says something like, "When buying a property, the value at which to buy should be less than the intrinsic value. There are bound to be undervalued properties in a respectable neighborhood". I equate this somewhat to value buying.
 
 
If someone didnt understand clearly what I meant above, he should try reading the real-estate part of the RDPD series.
 
"The profit on buying a real-estate is made at the time of buying and not at the time of selling!" - Jist of the rea-estate book.
 
 
Btw, I have all the RDPD books.

The most important quality for an investor is temperament,not intellect.A temperament that neither derives great pleasure from being with the crowd nor against it

it starts with right from the child hood days of Buffet, his schooling, his initial career, friends, his likings- choices, lots of quotes from people he has interacted with through out his life, lots of details about the companies he has invested in ( i was amazed about reading the details printed about coca-cola in one of the chapter, i will share some other time), the business around the companies he invests, one or two photographs in every chapter. it is about 850 page book with more than 160 chapters. chapter ranges from 1 page to approx 10 pages.
i will share specific content of this book little later.
 
what i liked the most is unlike many other books on WB, this gives something new to understand him.
