A VERY POWERFUL, DETAILED AND GENEROUS BOOK. NOT YOUR TYPICAL A/P BOOK. THE 'RIGHT' WAY TO SAFELY PROTECT YOUR ASSETS.

Asset protection.......2007-05-12

This well-written book does a great job of dispelling a lot of the mis-information that currently abounds in the market place.

Well researched.......2007-03-01

Jay Adkisson is my voice of reason in the field. This is heavily researched brain food for asset protection. The rule of law is constantly massaged and altered as the courts challenge provisions, and I always feel safest turning to Jay for his interpretation. In particular the Albright 291 Rptr. 538 ruling in Colorado has alot of LLC attorneys spooked. I'm sure we'll be hearing from Jay soon on this one.

Above the Norm.......2007-01-17

Asset protection is a good practical sense guide on the areas of trust, business entities and a dose of reality. If your at a point where the accumulated assets is worth protecting for yourself, spouse, kids and family then this is the book to read. Its not too technical but down to earth business sense. I find this book is geared to people that have some familarity with the business environment. If you know why you want to protect your assets then this book is the next step.

No Surprises Here.......2006-05-30

Adkisson and Riser are beacons in the darkness that is labeled asset protection. This book, and the attitudes it sets forth towards asset protection (when that term may be discretely used) are the de facto standard of care and woe be to the professional who believes otherwise. I say there are no surprises because the book is the embodiment of the professional, real life anti-scam viewpoint in this area Jay Adkisson has come to represent. Do not ignore the fact most of these five star reviews are by attorneys like myself who see the aftermath of so-called asset protection, off-shore entities and third world trusts. Don't miss it.

Fuels you up and points you in the right direction!.......2007-08-29

One of the best things this book does is points out that it is a CHOICE to live an abundant life. The book points out those wrong mental footprints of to handling finances can be corrected. Then it shares easy to understand, sensible steps to follow in making one's financial abundant life a reality. I read the book the first time and made notes. Now I am rereading it the second time and doing the exercises. I see the rewards are right around the corner.

You go, Ladies!!!.......2006-10-10

This is the first popular book on finance I've ever read that didn't make me want to go out and cut my throat because I'd been so stupid and now it was too late! Instead, the authors explain how to think in terms of abundance, not deprivation, and explain how it's NEVER too late.

Another great thing about this book is that it integrates saving and investing into your life, not just your lifestyle, and shows how they can actually enhance your value system.

Buy it. It's the WHAT COLOR IS YOUR PARACHUTE of investing.

A truly wonderful book. However there is a crucial element that must be addressed in light of what is coming down the pike at us "Girls". If you read Arnold's The Great Bust Ahead (or visit the book's website at thegreatbustahead.com) you will gain insights into what may be the greatest depression in history beginning just a few years from now. This will probably affect women the most, and women (and men) of color more than others. So, whatever us Girls can make by following Glinda's advice needs to be protected (i.e. not lost in the coming depression) by reading Arnold's advice.

A 'Must Have' Guide for Everybody!.......2006-08-21

Boy, does that title ring true! I also noticed on the cover of this book the wording, "Because that hand in your pocket... isn't yours!" You and I know that everybody wants your money in one form or another. However, I discovered some new ways while reading this book that I just finished. It is Written by David W. Latko, who is the co-host for the national radio program, "Money and More". Impressively, David Latko ranks among the nation's top one percent of financial advisors. I can just imagine how 'in demand' he is. He started off in a middle class neighborhood and moved his way up by helping people.

Where do you usually turn for answers with questions regarding investing, real estate, divorce, automobiles, identity theft, and so much more? If you say your family, friends, neighbors, or your own financial advisor, then you REALLY need to read this book to make sure you are steered on the right path. Looks can be deceiving. Do your homework, starting with this book, because it is YOUR money and YOUR financial future you are looking out for. No one else has such a vested interest in your finances as you need to, except for the slime balls mentioned in this book that you have to watch out for who want your money.

David not only presents practical advice in this book. He also shares memorable stories that yank on the heartstrings and gets your blood boiling. Think you are safe from your own family members who are to inherit your money? Think again and take a look at the story examples in this book. If nothing else, you will at least be aware and prepared just in case.

This book would make great gifts for everyone in your life. What better gift can you give them than to make sure they don't make wrong financial decisions that can destroy their future? I'm going to be buying and giving this book to some of my own family and friends as gifts. I am keeping mine to refer to and share with my children when needed. This book is definitely worth it!

... Story example: Willa and Tony, a retired couple who had a horrific experience with their first financial advisor. They came into some money. They had no idea what to do to invest or what to do.

So they solicited some advice from other retired friends. One of them had received a postcard in the mail a week before, and he passed it along to Tony and Willa. It gave the name and number of a financial advisor who worked in a branch office of a major brokerage which they knew of from hearing about it on TV.

In short order, their new advisor "handled" their prosperity problem. He put them into a range of investments that Willa and Tony did not clearly understand. Then, after a month or so of frenetic activity, he stopped calling-or returning their calls.

With their frustration mounting, they mentioned their problem to a person who happened to be a client of Davids. Turns out the other advisor had locked Willa and Tony into investments that carried staggeringly large up-front commissions; others carried long-term (and expensive) surrender charges.

There was little that could be done. The couple were tied into investments that could not be changed without taking a significant financial hit, in the case of Willa and Tony, it was more than a $26,000 loss.

This book should be a part of everyone's collection.......2006-07-11

This book is valuable on so many levels. Not only does David Latko explain those investments such as real estate, and car buying but he also details the financial repercussions of a divorce and its long-term implications.

Latko uses real-life experiences that hit close to home. So many of the problems that he describes are ones that I've encountered or have friends that have encountered them. His advice and knowledge are priceless.

David Latko really knows what he's talking about. This book was an absolute inspiration and savior to me!

Read this book immediately! .......2006-07-11

David Latko's "Everybody Wants Your Money," skillfully outlines the dos and don'ts of asset management. After reading this book I feel like I've dodged a financial bullet. It is so easy to take the easy way out and do as our advisors recommend without looking at the big picture.

Throughout this book, Latko uses numbers and charts to help visualize his arguments. In this way he effectively shows how the decisions you make today will have an impact on your finances in the coming years.

The advice and wisdom that I took from this book are priceless. He is a master of his field and honestly believes that everyone should make informed decisions.

A truly amazing book.......2006-07-11

After reading David Latko's book I realize how trusting most people are. So many of us put the future of our financial stability in the hands of our "advisors." In reality, these people are out to make a dollar too!

Latko does a beautiful job of outlining the typical financial pitfalls that we all face in a way that is not only easy to understand but fun to read.

This is such an important book for everyone to read. Even if you think you have nothing to worry about - this is really an eye opener!

Book Description

Skyrocketing tuitions have become a national concern. The average four-year college degree now costs more than $35,000, and that sum is growing at a phenomenal rate, forcing unprecedented numbers of college students into student-loan debt. In 1995, the Educational Resource Institute issued a report warning that borrowing has exploded to record levels and is expected to double in five years.

Whether they're just beginning to think about paying for college, are currently in school, starting repayment or already overwhelmed with debt, students, as well as recent graduates and parents, find The Guerrilla Guide to Mastering Student Loan Debt an indispensable guide to navigating the student loan maze. In clear, lively and reassuring chapters, it answers such time and money-saving questions as:

What types of loans are available, and how are they different?

How can I get the best possible deal?

What are my options for repaying my loan and can I postpone repayment?

How can I get a forbearance or a deferment?

How can I repair my credit rating?

Know Your Options, and Know Your Rights.......2004-10-29

There is a common theme among college students these days, and those who have attended and quit as well as those (un)lucky multitudes who have graduated. Sometime during the senior year of high school, application forms to colleges are sent in, and admissions and rejection notices are sent a few months later. Along with the admissions forms comes another little form detailing the amount of aid that is extended by the college to the prospective freshperson. This is where all the fun begins, and it quickly snowballs into a pernicious form of indentured servitude.

Ms. Stockwell's book details in painful precision just what happens when a pimply-faced kid signs on the dotted line. First she begins by relating her own experience, and then she delves into the experiences of others. Along the way, she shows how many of us got into the student loan mess, how the financial aid system has evolved (or is it mutated?!) into the monstrous behemoth that it is today (actually at the time she wrote the book), some coping strategies (for it really can't be called anything else) for the inevitable missed payments and default, and finally some suggestions on how the system can(but will not ever) be fixed.

We live in an age of educational opportunity. Anyone with some combination of motivation and money can attend college. Indeed, attendance at college has become necessary in some professions just to keep pace. At any rate, it is a tremendous achievement that folks from just about all walks of life now have the chance to attend college.

However, this does not mean that the powers-that-be have made attendance easy or even free. There is a rather sinister catch attached to the proposition, and it always requires people of limited means to devote years of their lives and of their professional livelihood to servicing some form of debt burden. I have to agree with the author, who said that the best thing to do is to say NO! to all forms of debt- from student loans to credit cards to auto loans, as they all tend to lock you into cycles from which frankly there may be no escape.

This leads into another part of this sinister situation of Faustian proportions. Not long after the freshperson has signed on the dotted line, and just a few short weeks after parking his or her carcass in a smelly, roach-infested dorm room, the credit card people come calling. There literally seems to be a deluge of credit card applications arriving one after another in the mailbox. (However, these days, I have been told by more than a few distressed parents that the card companies don't even wait till the brats have donned their caps and gowns for high school graduation.)

Finally, sometime before college graduation, typically during the beginning of your senior year, some auto company like General Motors comes around and offers to 'help out' the soon-to-be graduated. It seems that they know you are looking for a job, and wouldn't it make a good impression on prospective employers if you rolled in a nice, shiny new car that shows that you are a professional and that you mean business? Fixing you up would be no problem at all- just sign here on the dotted line, and you'd better hurry, as there are only a limited number of this year's model left. Oh and uh, did I forget to mention that there's a really low 2.9% APR and uh, no payments for the first year?

In my mind, there is absolutely no doubt that there is a great deal of collusion between universities, credit card and auto companies in the ongoing mess of indebtedness seen among recent grads and post-grads. Here's a friendly tip: most aid packages have some combination of grants, work study and loans. You can negotiate the combination of the aid you receive. I strongly suggest that you negotiate to get as much work study as possible, and leave the loans, especially the Stafford Loans, as an option. It's what I did, and it meant the difference between finishing with a lot of debt (or not finishing and with a lot of debt as has happened to many acquaintances) and finishing with little or no debt. Too many friends of mine are broke, out of work, living in their parents' basement and have turned dodging dunning notices from student loan companies and collection agencies into a practiced science.

Anyone that is contemplating going to college should read this book. Although I must concede that the book is a a little dated, as there have been some significant changes in the student loan picture in the last six or seven years or so, it does precisely show the progression of events that do occur when one gets overwhelmed with student loans.

Yet, much of the debt mess we see among many students is indeed voluntary. No one is forcing kids to max out credit cards and purchase one (or more) cars before they graduate, but then no one is championing the cause of caution either with any form of credit. Many kids are not simply graduating in debt, they are now matriculating into debt in droves. Please note that all of this comes before contemplating the thorny proposition of a home mortgage!

In sum, in this age of job insecurity and galloping price increases, people need to know the risks when fooling around with any form of credit. I take my hat off to Ms. Stockwell, who had the courage to call attention to this clever ploy to re-institute feudalism among the masses.

All hail King George!

Read this book BEFORE you take out student loans.......2002-05-29

This book really will not help you if you already have student loan debt. If you do, the advice is simple - hunker down and pay it off. If you have no student loan debt, read this book and reconsider your desire to go into debt for your education. You can get a good education on the "pay as you go" method if you do it right. Take it from someone who made all the wrong choices - don't go into debt for your education!! I don't recommend this book if you already have sutdent loan debt - focus on paying it off. Save the money you'd spend on this book and put it toward your loan payoff.

Student Loan Warning.......2002-02-15

I have found myself graduated and placed in a law career that I never wanted, thanks to my family's pushing a smart but "too nice" young man into a potentially "lucrative" but intensely stressful and blood-spilling career as a lawyer. Of course the family never paid anything because they are simple lower middle class people who had a dream that their bright young son would become a smashing success. So now I have a $100,000 debt and stuck in a career that I dread (I wanted to be a damn scientist, not a LAWYER). This book is pretty good on telling you exactly how the government can wreck your life with its easy to get student loans, but it doesn't have any hands down cure. It is dated already in that a year after it was published congress took away the 7 year waiting period for a bankruptcy discharge. Now you may NEVER have your educational loans discharged, so they will chase you and harass you and try to reposess your things even when you are old and grey, all for your mistaken career choices made as a youth. For those who are sucked into the student loan system without rich parents to bail them out or pay the bills, there is not much anybody can do for you. This book SHOULD BE READ BY ANYONE WHO DOES NOT HAVE ASSETS and is thinking about taking loans to go to school. READ IT because nobody else is gonna tell you how absolutely crushing this educational debt can be to your dreams. Then you will see that NOBODY in their right mind should get into serious nondischargeable debt for what is at best an uncertain hope that you will maybe be able to get a job and pay it back through continuous work through what should be the prime years of your life. READ THIS BOOK BEFORE YOU SIGN THE PROMISSORY NOTE!!!!!!!!!!!

About as Good as a Student Loan Book Could Get.......2001-06-28

This book is just fine. I guess the bottom line is you need to make the money to pay the damn things off however. I'd like to see something in a more loompanics sort vein.

This book saved my life!.......2000-08-25

In a panic when facing consolidation of over $100,000 in student loans, I stumbled upon this great book. I then postponed reading it, fearing what I would learn. But, I did read it, and discovered I couldn't put it down. This book makes sense of the history of student loans and how to understand and get through the loan process. There is a wealth of resources, suggestions and information about how to live with student loans and NOT lose your sanity. Schools do NOT adequately prepare students to understand what they are getting into, much less how to manage loan repayment. I only wish I the book had been written before I started my graduate program. It is especially helpful to have this information BEFORE you sign for any student loan.

Mark Dempsey's iconoclastic Robbing You Blind makes a persuasive case for actively supervising your own investments rather than unquestioningly accepting a broker's advice. Dempsey ought to know: Once a high flyer at a major brokerage, he now says he succeeded only by cajoling clients into purchases that helped him meet sales goals--whether or not they were appropriate. "If the average investor only knew what really goes on behind the scenes with their money," he once commiserated with a colleague, "they'd think differently about having us manage it." Investors with incomes from $50,000 to $100,000 represent most accounts on Wall Street, Dempsey notes, yet are treated far differently from those who earn more. While some of what he reveals--how they're denied information, squeezed out of prime opportunities, and routinely offered securities that prove most profitable to the broker--may not be news to sophisticated investors, many of his remedies apply to everyone. They include becoming fully informed (follow the news, use the Internet, join conference calls), avoiding investments with high fees, steering clear of anything that requires urgent action, and requesting discounts (commission breaks of 35 percent or more are often given to clients who ask). --Howard Rothman

Book Description

Average investors are harmed every day without realizing it, through commonplace practices at full-service and discount firms alike, as well as Internet investment sites and 401K plans. No longer, promises Mark Dempsey in this compelling book. He exposes these deceitful practices, and teaches investors how to fight back with point-by-point tips and useful warnings. Dempsey reveals that middle-class customers (with personal incomes between $50,000 and $100,000) aren't given access to the same research information and stock-buying tips as their wealthier counterparts, don't have the same opportunities to invest in profitable IPOs, and are regularly encouraged to invest in mutual funds that perform well below the market average. This, despite the fact that they make up two-thirds of the country's investors, and are responsible for the bulk of commissions brokers receive. Not fair, argues Dempsey, and he gives readers the knowledge they need to make the investment world work for them.

This book gave me some real insights into Wall Street and how to protect my money.There is a great deal of honesty here and the writing syle is easy on the eyes, but it did make me think. I wish there were more books like this and Mark Dempsey wherever you are I hope you are helping other people as you have helped me and my family.

Money saving information.......2003-11-04

This book should be required reading for any that either have money or plan to have money in the stock market. Why? Because the tricks of the trade and hidden fees are going to eat into your profits and at the very least you should want to know where your money is going. Thinking of seeing a financial planner? Read this book to arm yourself against some of ploys they might use against you. Using a full service stock broker in your trades? Some of what goes on behind closed doors might surprise you.

You should understand how car salesmen work before buying a car, why not understand how mutual fund salesmen work before investing, especially since the amount of money is probably going to be a much larger amount.

It is the naïve and uninformed get soundly fleeced everyday in the financial markets, at the very least, read this book before making any large financial decisions that involve trusting the advice from a financial advisor, banker or stock broker. These often have built in conflicts of interests that could cost you money.

While pros and those in the know will probably not find anything here new, and stock brokers and other financial salesmen probably hate this book, I strongly recommend it to any that are thinking about entering the financial markets.

Author is a Fortune Teller.......2002-06-24

I can't believe what I read in this book that was published a couple of years ago. The author seems to have a cystal ball when he talked about analysts and how they did the wrong thing by investors. Robbing You Blind also hits the nail on the head when it talks about brokers and their wicked ways. Enron 401k messes are predicted in the book and not one soul seems to have cared to take care of the problem Sadly, the book looks at regulators in a different way giving them little credit in helping investors and standing up for their interests. Recent headlines seem to support the allegations. What is so interesting about this book is that nothing was done to help investors from being robbed blind for so many years. Why, I wonder?

Terrific Read.......2001-06-14

Wow a financial advisor who really cares about people!! I am impressed with the book and Mr. Dempsey.

WHAT A JOY TO READ.......2001-06-10

I must have saved 10,000 dollars by reading this book. I have read it twice now and I am a better investor for it. The amount of money I saved in fees alone makes the book a real winner. GOOD STUFF!!!!

Customer Reviews:

Excellent practical and useful approach to estate planning.......1999-06-14

Despite its somewhat misleading title, this is an excellent book for all kinds of people, gay, lesbian, or straight, who are involved in estate planning and settlement. The examples are useful and the information is presented clearly. Excellent resource for a difficult task.
