Tony Robbins turns to the topic that vexes us all: How to secure financial freedom for ourselves and for our families. "If there were a Pulitzer Prize for investment books, this one would win, hands down" (Forbes). Tony Robbins is one of the most revered writers and thinkers of our time. People from all over the world—from the disadvantaged to the well-heeled, from twenty-somethings to retirees—credit him for giving them the inspiration and the tools for transforming their lives. From diet and fitness, to business and leadership, to relationships and self-respect, Tony Robbins's books have changed people in profound and lasting ways. Now, for the first time, he has assembled an invaluable "distillation of just about every good personal finance idea of the last forty years" (The New York Times).
Based on extensive research and interviews with some of the most legendary investors at work today (John Bogle, Warren Buffett, Paul Tudor Jones, Ray Dalio, Carl Icahn, and many others), Tony Robbins has created a 7-step blueprint for securing financial freedom. With advice about taking control of your financial decisions, to setting up a savings and investing plan, to destroying myths about what it takes to save and invest, to setting up a "lifetime income plan," the book brims with advice and practices for making the financial game not only winnable—but providing financial freedom for the rest of your life. "Put MONEY on your short list of new books to read...It's that good" (Marketwatch.com).

Reviews-
Starred review from December 15, 2014 Self-help author Robbins (Awaken the Giant Within) delivers with a commanding book, his first in nearly two decades, designed to financially empower readers with a simple, seven-step roadmap. Distilling insights from the financial world's leading minds, Robbins explains the rules all investors need to know and shares the best strategies from those who have already mastered the money game. Ultimately, his goal is to help readers establish a guaranteed lifetime income stream. To that end, Robbins cuts through industry jargon, debunks widespread myths, and identifies investing pitfalls, such as hidden fees. He also discusses how to minimize drastic losses while increasing gains and how to stay on target in the long run. As an added bonus, he includes a chapter of Q&As with several financial luminaries, including Yale Chief Investment Officer David Swensen and Vanguard founder John C. Bogle. As with every area on which Robbins has given advice, commitment and follow-through are key. But after reading this book, readers will be armed with the essential tools they need to gain control of their financial future and chart a path to success.
November 1, 2014 Robbins owns his own island. Why don't you?It's just a "small island paradise," mind you, but it doesn't hurt that Robbins has amassed a considerable chunk of change by building a life-coaching empire. Of course, there's a certain obnoxiousness attendant in telling an audience that you're rich, but the promise that the audience can be rich too has its own charms. Robbins seldom ceases to be rah-rah in his belief that if readers just suspend disbelief and follows "the 7 Simple Steps in this book"-the proprietary caps are his-then the big win can't be far behind. Obnoxiousness aside, the author is no slouch; for this book, he's interviewed and studied the portfolios of numerous billionaires (ordinary millionaires need not apply) to find out the secrets of their success, many of which fall into his own simple-step septet. It would steal Robbins' thunder to reveal them, but one bit of general counsel that makes good sense is offered by JP Morgan Chase investment whiz Mary Callahan Erdoes: "You can never be out of balance in taking care of yourself as a person, taking care of your work as a professional, taking care of your family, taking care of your friends, your mind, your body." On the matter of balance, Robbins offers a seemingly counterintuitive dis-recommendation of the old balanced-portfolio mantra, which, he holds, can put the holder at unnecessary risk; that provocative advice alone is worth the cover price. Of course, the rules vary from billionaire to billionaire; they call to mind Somerset Maugham's witticism, "There are only three rules for writing a novel. The trouble is, no one knows what they are." Still, Robbins' common-sensical, relentlessly positive, often highly specific advice is both useful and inspirational-which is just as advertised. Great airplane reading on the way to that private island and sure to occasion a few adjustments in one's portfolio.
