BUT can you explain why being written from a woman’s perspective is, according to you, a caveat.
AND there is nothing wrong with a little leaning. The extremes ( notice the plural) are what’s doing us in.
SO? Women can’t have strong opinions, but men can?
wow…….

Boomer, I respect your opinions and am dying to hear what you think of the book after you read it.
Again, I found it quite insightful and learned much about how the various components of this multifaceted industry operate and how "financial advisors" of every stripe profit, many handsomely. Ultimately the clientele pay for those large beautiful insurance company headquarters buildings and posh Wall Street operations, just as they do for casinos.
Having been a real estate investor since I was in my teens I found her background study of Robert Kiyosaki, the "Rich Dad Poor Dad" author, revealing. No, I won't spoil it for you. She wrote Robert Allen, the author of "Nothing Down", had been a missionary before becoming a real estate investor which is a little misleading. He is a Mormon and had done spent two years in Tahiti as a missionary, but it had not been his profession. She did not write anything about Mark O. Haroldsen, another real estate investment book author, whom I have met ("How to Wake up the Financial Genius Inside You"). Based on my personal experience the techniques espoused by Allen and Haroldsen can work out fine and dandy!
