Great Foundational Investment book for Physicians

This is great book for medical and non-medical persons looking to build a solid investment framework and overall philosophy towards money. Additionally, its packed with lots of tidbits and pearls of wisdom that Tom graciously shares to readers to help expedite their learning process. This book is particularly helpful for physicians who aim to take ownership of their financial future-gaining knowledge and skills (not taught during medical training) that is needed to make money work on their behalf.

Excellent Book--5 stars

Tom Burns has truly done a masterful job explaining the power of passive income and how it can transform your life. I read dozens of business books a year and can tell you this one is worth your time. Although the book is specifically for doctors, it can used by anyone looking to increase passive income and better their lifestyle. Highly reccomend.

Great and practical book if you are a beginner

Really great and practical book for doctors (not only). Gives you the basic tools to understand how a completely different field from ours works, and how to get into it while being a busy physician. I bought both the audible and the paperback versions. One of the best places to start.

Lacks practical advise

Narrative about buying real estate and lacking practical advise for novice
Based on “ Rich Dad Poor Dad” which was more practical and enjoyable to read
