This is surely one of the most actionable and succinct summaries of the book we are ever likely to come upon! Great job - and presented in such a light way that you learn almost without noticing. I'm so pleased I've seen this video. You can be sure I'll be taking action on it in the coming weeks!

so, did you ever become vegetarian? (i've been vegan for 7 years so hoping you did!). good summary too, i read this book a few years ago and was browsing summaries of it on youtube to refresh my memory because i remember it being good but didn't want to reread the whole thing.

Great summary, but his method sounds really unbalanced and myopic. It makes sense that it came from someone who made his money in as simplistic and parasitic an enterprise as real estate.
