I always feel like it's hard to take someone's advice seriously if they can't be bothered to give their book a professional appearance. That said, it does sound like this presents some good material. Hopefully the author can take your advice and get some professional editing done.

However, the errors in this book can't be overlooked. I might check this one out soon, as I've added it to my TBR book list. Thanks for such an amazing review!
This book has lots to offer beneath what's superficial. All the best to your plans and aspirations! Thank you as well for sharing your wise thoughts and kind words.

Quite true. I would have given this piece a higher rating if not for the areas for improvement, indeed. It's got heaps of information to begin with. Thank you as well for sharing your insights and kind words.

Although it's undeniable that technological advancement has opened new business opportunities, I highly doubt we can all become millionaires by working online. It might be interesting to learn some tips and tricks of the industry but it seems like the book needs polishing and work before becoming a more precise guide for making money through online commerce.
Thank you for a very analytical review, Espie.

Thank you for a very analytical review, Espie.
The need for work-life balance is a more realistic expectation, and yet getting there is the "tricky" part. The book has utilized attention-catching techniques, I would have to say. It has the baseline information required enough to start with. Thank you for sharing your wise insights and kind words, Andrea!

I'm always looking for things to help me pay down my student loans, but I think I am going to pass on this one. E-commerce isn't what I am looking for, especially if the book is not well written. It makes the author seem less credible. Thanks for the comprehensive review!

And all the men and women merely players;

Following the steps in the book while replacing the paid options with alternative cost-free ones entails less risk for time-rich hopefuls. I could understand your predicament and wish you all the best in your future plans and endeavors. Thank you as well for sharing your profound thoughts and kind words.

Once the flaws are fixed, I might be more tempted to take a look at this book. In it's current form, I don't think it interests me much. Thanks for a wonderful review!

A good thought should be accompanied by the right action, indeed. This book gives us some options to consider, too. Thank you for sharing your ideas.

The eight steps to financial freedom appears to have a foundation, but the author seems to have built a faulty house on top of it. If the author improves the book by getting it edited professionally and presenting the ideas more clearly, I may give it a read. Thanks for the review!
