Product Description
It’s not good enough to want it. You’ve got to know how to get it. Real estate titan, bestselling author, and TV star Donald J. Trump is the man to teach you the billionaire mind-set–how to think about money, career skills, and life. Here is crucial advice on investing in real estate from the expert, everything from dealing with brokers to renovating to assessing the value of property, buying and selling, and securing a mortgage. Trump will show you how to cut costs, decide how much risk to assume in your investments, and divide up your portfolio. He’ll also teach you how to impress anyone, how to correct or criticize someone effectively, and how to know if your friends are loyal–everything you need to know to get ahead.
And once you’ve earned your money, you’ve got to learn to spend it well. Trump presents his consumer guide to the best things in life, from wine to golf clubs to engagement rings. Check out the billionaire lifestyle–how they shop and what they buy. Even if you’re not superwealthy, you can afford many of these luxuries.
And what look inside the Trump world would be complete without The Apprentice? Trump will take you behind the scenes, from the end of season one and into season two, with insights into the making and the meaning of TV’s hottest show.
As Donald Trump proves, getting rich is easy. Staying rich is harder. Your chances are better, and you’ll have more fun, if you think like a billionaire. This is the book that will help you make a real difference in your life.

 Tedious Thoughts/Egocentric Drivel , 2008-08-22
Trump provided one amazing book (The Art of the Deal) and since then has given us one dreadful ego stoking book after another. Think Like a Billionaire provides Trump's thoughts on topics such as:
- How to Rent an Apartment
- How to Read a Classified Ad
- How to Landscape
- How to Pinch Pennies
- How to Balance Work and Romance
- The best Shirts and Antiques
- How to Be Married (ironic chapter of the decade)
If this is the variety of information you are seeking from the mind of Donald Trump then I suppose you will find some value. Otherwise, this book reads like random notes on cocktail napkins that someone found on Trump's desk.

Do not buy!!!!, 2008-06-16
If your looking for a book about a guy that's full of himself, this is it. If your looking for a book about finance, real estate and making money, this isn't it! Plus, he adds a section about The Apprentice at the end, it really didn't help me out one bit. I was really disappointed in this book, wasn't at all what I thought it would be.

 Practical? No. Fun to read? Yes!, 2008-03-27
Think like a billionaire. Not that hard to do when you are one. More difficult for the average reader I guess. But hey, aim your arrow at the moon and you'll hit the mountain. I'll settle for a million or ten.
Most of the reader reviews find this book a one-star crap thing. I strongly disagree, because you should know by know The Donald will not take you by the hand and let you make your first million.
You want good advice? Better get his first book "The Art of the Deal" which teaches you some. But thinking like a billionaire is just like writing like a billionaire; he probably had two minutes to dictate per chapter.
Despite all this, it was fun to read. What goes on in a billionaire's life and it just make you dream about being succesful as well, as long if you're not succesful already. Fun to read, crap advise. Four stars.

 Worth it's weight in Billions . . ., 2007-11-19
This is one book I could not put down once I started reading it. With Mr. Trump's decades of experience and knowledge gained throughout today's aggressive world of business, his distinguishing insights are compacted into this brief and tiny work, projecting both his shrewd business smarts along with a non-negotiable 'mental toughness' that every successful business person should be learning from... and who better to be learning from than from 'the Donald.' I recommend this book to anyone who's interested in developing a deeper level of entrepreneurial insight within the world of business and real estate, as well as the financial IQ of, well, ... a billionaire. The diamonds are buried throughout this book, and must be sought after with one's trusty ... yellow highlighter. A must read for anyone who's set on becoming a more perceptive business investor / real estate professional / aspiring entrepreneur.
