 Powerful book!!!, 2007-12-17
If you ever wanted to know what it's like to start your business the right way, but were afraid to ask...read this book along with the "Rich Dad, Poor Dad," series.

Secrets of the Entrepreneurial Personality, 2007-11-28
Are you an employee hoping to become an entrepreneur? If so, you should reflect on your own character and inclinations before quitting your job. Making the switch from employment to business leadership can involve learning new skills and adopting new attitudes. You will need to tolerate financial risk, live without a regular paycheck, and develop top-notch selling skills. And you will need to energize yourself with a sense of purpose that will inspire your employees, vendors, and customers. These are the kinds of issues raised by the authors, as they focus on the personal traits necessary for successful entrepreneurship.
This book is less about the nuts and bolts of starting a business than it is about how to prepare for entrepreneurship within your own mind. Even the relatively few practical matters that are mentioned tend to be explained in a personal way. In the process, some conventional business terminology is adapted to suit the authors' usage. For example, what the authors refer to as a marketing tactic might more universally be considered a unique selling proposition, or an element of product positioning.
Nonetheless, the authors give a great deal of good advice, from how to hire and fire, to how to discourage office backstabbing. The stories they tell are interesting and very readable, including an account of how they have encouraged their own employees to become financially independent, rather than remaining dependent on a regular paycheck. Above all, the authors' analysis of the ideal entrepreneurial frame of mind should be of great value for anyone considering abandoning steady employment to start their own business.

Another great book by Robert T. Kiyosaki. , 2007-07-30
I found this more helpful than some of his other more recent books. It's not just a reiteration of his old information. It goes over some key points of his first book but hits on many things and mistakes he went through in his many businesses. He then applies the things he has learned and puts them in this book in ways which anyone can understand. There are some insightful tips from Sharon Lecter in here too.

 A little too familiar, 2007-07-24
My cousin gave me this book on cd as a gift in preparation for my departure from the working world to full blown self employment. Despite what I thought were veiled messages from my cousin, I eagerly listened to this book. I'm not a big fan of books on cd because I have a hard time concentrating while just listening to them, but as soon as I put "Before You Quit Your Job" in I began thinking that I've read/heard this before. I've read Rich Dad, Poor Dad (and liked it) and I couldn't help but think that this book sounds an awful lot like it. I haven't really compared the "text" of the two since I've only listened to this book in the car, but I swear many, if not most, of the information and stories are repackaged from Rich Dad and possibly the other books in the series based on what others here have had to say about it. I don't feel as if I gained anything new from reading this book and I'm reluctant to read any of the others in the series after this. So, if you've never read any of the other books this might be worthwhile. If you have read the others, well, I don't know...this may be terribly redundant.
