Creating Wealth

A revised, updated edition of the “outstanding” New York Times bestseller (Chicago Tribune): Learn to stop thinking poor and start growing rich.

Would you like to be able to retire in ten years? Popular speaker and author of the bestselling real-estate book Nothing Down, Robert G. Allen now moves beyond that topic to give you all the fundamentals of wealth creation.

In Creating Wealth, Allen goes straight to the core of people’s inner motivations and beliefs about money. By developing a wealthy mind-set, anyone can get on the path to financial self-reliance—and Allen shows you how. He explains the ways in which most of us have been programmed to think that only saving is good and debt and risk are bad, so that in our efforts to gain security, we cheat ourselves out of getting rich. The key to changing that mind-set is Allen’s unique integration of real estate with other wealth-generating investments. He spells out all his practical applications and shows you how to:Take advantage of tax lawsUse leverage to multiply holdings while minimizing risksBenefit from high-yield discount mortgagesAcquire long-term profits in gold and silver coinsSet up corporations and trusts to protect assetsFind the highest rate of return with the greatest liquidity

As Robert Allen has proved in his own life—becoming a multimillionaire well before he was thirty-five—it doesn’t matter how much or how little money you have when you start as long as you understand the right principles—timeless principles that can make you a fortune.
