Tax-Free Wealth

Finally! A tax book that lifts the veil for everyone!

There is so much I could say about Tom Wheelwright's book and still not do it justice. So many of us "common folk" have grown up fearing the tax code because it seems more incomprehensible and scary. Often, the tax collector carries the same ominous aura of dread associated with the boogie man! But, Tom is extremely…

I would have like to learn more about structingnthe LLC's in pro-business states ...

Decent book but 3 times longer than necessary. As other reviewers mentioned, you end up waiting for Tom to reveal a secret that he forgot to reveal. I'm not an accountant and don't play one on TV but many of the strategies seem unethical and barely legal. Others are simply so far out in left field for me (become a day…

Eye opening and scientifically proven

In my inmost being I always knew that my immoderate consumption of caffeine - mostly in form of coffee - cannot be healthy. When my Christmas holidays started, I really had no reason to consume this black and bitter broth at all - I had no deadlines, no appointments, basically I was not exposed to any form of stress…

The author backs up his ideas with....nothing.

No studies to back up what the author states. Lots of promises that "studies show". But he never shows such studies.

Great book! So much information on what we should do to protect us from invisibles harms. Unfortunately the agencies in place that suppose to regulate this products are capture and we have to do it on our own and this book is a tool to do just that. Thank you Dr Mercola.

I have read a lot of books about EMF and the adverse effects on the human body. This book is my favorite on the subject and the one that really opened my eyes to this massive problem.

Quote upon quote and unprofessional

Terrible. Too bad the author can’t write his own material. I felt this book was nothing but references to other authors and studies. No real input from the author himself. The format is awful using white text on grey or using light grey text on the off white paper used for the book. He also lacked the professionalism…

Great easy book to read and follow. A lot of similarities from another ecosystem I’ve educated myself on.

So Disappointed in This Book on EVERY Level.

Absolutely terrible in my opinion. I've been reading loads of books on the subject of alcoholism and also on the side of a loved one and how to cope. This practically makes the loved one (me) feel like they should walk around on eggshells and accept everything their alcoholic partner throws at them. I can't take this…

Not a break up manual, more like a breakup pamphlet

There was some good stuff in it about testosterone, but all the rest was very short and superficial. I felt the author was slinging around scientific words without truly understanding them. The whole book seemed more like a long article intended to make you buy his other dating book.

Great book about principles

I like how author on few pages was able to show the cause of addiction and that most of the things is actually in the head. Those principles I am sure can be applied about any addiction also psychological. Recommend to anyone who is open and ready to see truth and then apply it.

It’s ok

Nothing earthshaking. I drink a latte 4-5 times a week, none on weekends. It didn’t convince me to quit caffeine. If anything it reinforced what I already knew about caffeine and its effects. One day I’ll just quit.

Not for me

First off, I’m a cynical person so this might not apply to everyone. But this book made me want to smoke, so I did and I haven’t looked back. It made me realize my addiction isn’t as bad as I thought it was. This book is trying to paint pictures that don’t exist for most of us, I felt like it was speaking to someone…

I don't like the way the author assumes every man is heterosexual

I don't like the way the author assumes every man is heterosexual. Porn is a huge issue for gay men and something geared towards us would be very helpful. All this talk about men being with women and the underlying assumption that this is how it is was quite distracting and annoying. At least put a an acknowledgement…
