The blurb on the back of the book begins with "Just what does this WWE Superstar know about the world of finance?" I found myself asking the same question.
Well on reading, I found that this was one of those books that was hard to put down. Very hard in fact. The book reads almost like an autobiography of 'Bradshaw's' football and later wrestling career, in which he applies lesson's that he's learned through life to bettering himself, and planning for the future. He then passes on these lessons to the reader.
Indispersed with photographs, (including a rather amusing one, complete with story), of him wrestling an 800lb brown bear, the book does not bore with pages of financial mumbo jumbo. Instead, it becomes a thoroughly entertaining and engrossing read. What he says makes a lot of sense.
It does not approach the subject of having more money from a "Get rich overnight" angle. Instead, it details in simple and easy to understand terms, how to plan for your tomorrow, but enjoy your today. A nice fact is, that it's been written by a guy who has been there, has been down to his last $27, has picked himself up, and faced the future head on, becoming very successful. As 'Bradshaw' states, "Life is for living. Don't just exist...live!" The book details how to look at your expenditure, cut back on unnecessary luxuries, get your debts down, and then build for your future. Investment advice is included, explaining the differences between different types of investment, shares, stocks, bonds etc, and also about how Bradshaw lost weight (a part I'll be paying particular attention to!)
The message is, you can look after number one, without being selfish. Just don't be somebody else's doormat.
In conclusion, this book is well worth the money, (I'm not just saying that because I'm a Bradshaw fan!), and a very engrossing, entertaining and informative read.
I think Bradshaw says it best.
"You can spend all your time griping about the past, talking about opportunities missed, or you can spend it planning a better future".
Buy this book....it won't disappoint.
