Book Reviews of Your Portable Empire: How to Make Money Anywhere While Doing What You Love
Book Review: Utter fluff! I'm actually annoyed by the blatant attempt to pull one over on us readers by this guy!
Summary: 2 Stars
This book is going to have the dubious honour of being the first book I'm going to return to Amazon...
It's utter fluff all the way through...he talks a lot around potentially useful ideas, but without actually imparting any real knowledge of substance. And the book is full of shameless self promotion & promotion of his buddies, such as Joe Vitale...
Another example of the sort of fluff the book is full of (instead of any real substance) is a couple of useless "interviews" - does it really qualify as writing a useful book to just print a word for word transcription of you & your buddies having a chat, call it an interview, and make it a chapter in your book about copywriting? More than one chapter in this book is just that!
There are many more examples & varies criticisms I could make of this book, but I really don't want to waste any more of my time on it...I'm just writing this so others won't fall into the same trap I did.
I'm furious with this author, if you can call him that, as I feel this is a blatant attempt to rip people off. It comes across that he's written this & pushed it as the latest greatest thing since sliced bread, while knowing full well it's utter rubbish, lazy writing, and completely lacking insubstance, not to mention promoting similar flaky ethics like his own!
