100 Million Dollars in Profits: An Anatomy of a Market Killing and a Realistic Trading Plan

!00 Million Dollars, Anatomy of a Market Killing
This book was written entirely by Kelly Angle. Wm. Grandmill had nothing to do wth this book, and this book does not use Grandmill's principles. If you want material by Grandmill go to some of his other books.

What Kelly Angle wrote is reasonable decent. It is primarily about his father's trading in Gold Futures.

A FUNDAMENTAL APPROACH TO GRAIN TRADING
This book deals more with 'investing' rather than 'traading' as such it uses a more longer-term approach to making money in the grain futures and options markets. If you want a long term plan with say 2-3 trades for theyear, then this book might be helpful to you. It is not suitable to the active commodities 'trader' who maybe involved in swing trading etc.

A good book for definitions, but disappointing in substance
I was disappointed in this book because it provides ten minute definitions and very little practical or useful insite.

Harry Potter the sorcerer stone
Harry Potter is a good book, but it is not the best book I've ever read. I liked how the characters were described. For example Harry Potter is described as having black and scraggly hair. I would recomend this book to anybody who likes adventure books.

The author writes like a used car salesman
The author writes like a hustler who is trying to con you into believing he is something he isn't. From the quality of the information in this book, the author certainly seems to understand mortgage. Yet, the street-wise tone of the author actually curbs his own credibility. He uses phrases such as "Avoid the bang of a bursting balloon","How to borrow jumbo amounts without paying jumbo rates", and "[author] simplifies complicated math...[and] make sure your loan rep is being honest with you". Such lingo belongs in an infomercial. Beyond his own hoopla, the book does contain valuable information. Just don't buy into his own hype.

Encyclopedia of home financing
You won't be disappointed with this book. It really covers the territory--everything from qualifying tips to government programs to seller financing to saving big dollars. Before I read this book I didn't know a an ARM from a leg. Now I can talk mortgage talk with any lender and not feel like I'm prime meat for the wolves. Really gives the lowdown on all types of financing alternatives and how not to get caught by the fine print. Thoroughly shows how to pay off your loan faster and save tens of thousands of dollars. Nuff said. This knowledge will pay back a thousand times the cost of the book.

Outstanding guide to financing
I previously read Eldred's book,Investing In Real Estate.It's the best,comprehensive, and most sensible guide to investing that you'll find (read the reviews for youself). Likewise, this book on financing goes way beyond the other authors that I have read. (Sidenote: I cannot figure out what the Seattle reviewer is talking about, Mortgage Secrets deals exclusively with the ins and outs of financing techniques, saving money, cutting mortgage costs,and building equity faster. This book says nothing about using high leverage to get rich in real estate. As to infomercial hype, Eldred actually lambasts these gurus and warns how their "techniques" can lead the gullible to financial ruin. He even cautions strongly against home equity loans.) If you want to learn your financing options as well as the "tricks of the trade", you won't find a better book than this one. Although I'm in the business, I liked this book because a much more educated borrower gives us true professionals a stong advantage over our competition. Read Mortgage Secrets, then work with a broker who follows the insights that Eldred reveals. I'll make more money and you will get a better deal.
