          The author of the rags-to-riches real estate bestseller Nothing Down for the '90s presents advice drawn from 20 years of writing and promoting get-rich books through seminars, infomercials, and home-study courses. In Multiple Streams of Income, Robert G. Allen shows you how to create income with little or no investment. Says Allen: "Today, very few families can survive on less than two streams of income. In the volatile future, you will need a portfolio of income streams--not one or two--but many streams from completely different and diversified sources."

          Beginning with advice on controlling spending and increasing savings, Allen hits his stride in chapters on stock market and real estate investing. He draws on the investment advice of others, including Peter Lynch, and even suggests that you invest in Berkshire Hathaway and let Warren Buffett manage your money. Allen also shares his real estate strategies for finding motivated sellers, securing creative financing, and buying foreclosures and tax liens. Additional chapters cover multilevel-network marketing, information and product licensing, and marketing on the Internet. Throughout are checklists, work sheets, and testimonials, as well as pointers to more articles and materials on the author's Web site. It's useful to have so much information so concisely and well explained, and many who read this book will find it hard to resist implementing one, if not several, of Allen's recommended income strategies. --Scott Harrison

          Book Description

          In Multiple Streams of Income, bestselling author Robert Allen presents ten revolutionary new methods for generating over $100,000 a year—on a part-time basis, working from your home, using little or none of your own money. For this book, Allen researched hundreds of income-producing opportunities and narrowed them down to ten surefire moneymakers anyone can profit from. This revised edition includes a new chapter on a cutting-edge investing technique.

          Download Description

          Knowledge of the structures and properties of nonferrous metals, such as aluminum, is required knowledge for all materials scientists, chemists, and metallurgists. However, existing books often include this topic with their description of ferrous metals. Because ferrous metals (steel and cast iron) are by far the most widely used metals, coverage of nonferrous metals in these books is cursory or absent. For this reason there is a need for a book that deals with nonferrous metals.

          3 out of 5 stars Can You Make Multiple Streams Of Income Online?.......2007-05-23

          I first learned of the term Multiple Stream Of Income from Robert Allen the No Money Down guy. He pretty much coined the phrase all the way to the bank. I read his book a few years ago, it was the number one best seller on The New York Times Best Seller's list. I was so thrilled to get my hands on it I just knew that this was the long awaited manuscript that we marketers wanted to give it a test drive.

          It was a good read, however it had too many twist and turns and it cost a bit much at the time to implement his methods from just one website, and it was not the results I was looking for. I knew there had to be a better way for us new marketers to reach that illusive extra income stream.

          I begin to wonder, can you actually make multiple streams of income online? I continued my search for the missing pieces of the MSI puzzle that would put it altogether; With the many product offers that promises you the world if you would try this program, and use it with this technique, and you'll surely be on your way to riches.

          After several years of online seeking, I can now say I've been to the mountain top of internet marketing offers, and what I have come down with is this; there are many claims being made about multiple streams of income online that you can use right now in your marketing campaign to a steady flow of extra income. I found this unique website with multiple streams of income you can get from Google, Ebay, Clickbank, CJ; etc. All from one cool little website. I have studied the likes of Tim Knoxs, Brad Callen, Mike Falsaime; etc, and a host of other top online experts in this field of multiple streams of income and their proven systems, and what I have found will surprise you.

          Don believes that less than 5% of the marketers are making it online, and 95% of the programs online are a waste of money. There are no more secrets, just the facts. If you are focus you'll learn one of many proven marketing tools I'll show you to help you along your way to build Multiple Streams Of Income Online the correct way.[...]

          5 out of 5 stars Robert G Allen Rocks.......2007-05-08

          This is a awesome "How to" book for amassing the wealth necessary to break the gravitational forces of depending on employment for your financial security.

          First, control the leaks in your financial pond
          Second, add streams of income to that financial pond - includes lots of ideas

          You'll have to read it to get the rest. I can hardly wait to get my hands on some of the other Robert Allen books.

          4 out of 5 stars A Smorgasbord of Options From Which to Pick and Profit .......2007-04-19

          There's no doubt that the content in Multiple Streams of Income will have your head swirling with wealth-building possibilities.

          I believe that the book opens the doors of opportunity in areas you may not have considered. At the same time, not every concept is right for every person.

          I found myself skimming chapters I'm not ready to pursue and slow to absorb chapters that contain ideas I can capitalize on right away. When I develop a comfort zone and steady income through the strongest possibilities, I'll re-read the chapters that contained ideas I wasn't ready to develop. Perhaps this tip will also help you.

          The section I found to be extremely beneficial was chapter two, The 10-Minute Millionaire. It masterfully explains how to value time so that you can concentrate on the multiple streams open to you. That's key no matter which revenue opportunities you choose.

          I appreciate a book that identifies numerous revenue sources, provides examples, and includes charts with a visual perspective on what's possible to increase personal wealth. At the end, your brain may be on overload. However, taking action on just one idea from this book has the potential to change your life for the better.

          3 out of 5 stars Alright, too many stories. No real meat.......2007-02-24

          I was expecting to get a book that would steer me into the course of making some more money on the side. While it does inform readers of ways of generating more cash flow, each chapter seems to just be filled with non-practical wisdom on how to enter each money-making field.

          4 out of 5 stars If you own a business, or want to .....read this book to grow your sales BIG TIME.......2007-01-25

          The simple strategies in this book can be the difference from your small business staying small(shrinking) or it exploding.

          Book points out the "gold" in your own customer list and how to create, expand and benefit from all of the relationships you have built in your business.

          As a small business owner taking just a few steps from this book will help us increase sales using no extra money, just our time to work with our existing customer.

          Use your web site for more than just a place for people to look at or read about what you do, make it a BIG asset.

          If you have been in business for a while and think that just having a web site is engough, you are missing out on additional income AND it is much easier to capture than finding new customers the hard and expensive way.

          1 out of 5 stars Unfortunate.......2004-04-20

          A truly awful falconry book. The factual errors and errors of omission combined may actually make this a dangerous falconry book; and for one aimed at the beginner, this is a frank shame. My only regret greater than having purchased this book at a premium in the store (I buy every falconry title I see) is that so few volumes exist to compete with it. Somehow, this most excellent and widely-utilized falconry bird (the Harris' hawk) has yet to inspire a definitive treatise on its natural history and training. For much better treatment of the Harris' (though incomplete in each case), I recommend the works of Harry McElroy and Martin Hollinshead.

          1 out of 5 stars The Harris Hawk: Management Training and Hunting.......2003-03-13

          International Falconer magazine gave this book a rare poor review. Why would and American buy a book about and Training American hawk, written by a British falconer? The book contains a map of where Harris Hawks are supposed to live in the wild. He's way off. International Falconer says the author doesn't even train Harris Hawks. For a much better book try, Desert Hawking with a little help by Harry McElroy!

                            4 out of 5 stars Woronov's wild amphetamine-filled time in Warhol's Factory.......2005-08-20

                            Before reading this book I only knew Woronov through her delicious work as the mild-mannered murdering dominatrix in the black comedy "Eating Raoul." This book exposes her early years as an actress in Andy Warhol's Factory. It is a scary descent into a drug-filled world filled with drag queens, celebrities, hallucinations, mole people and inner demons. Woronov paints a distinctly unflattering portrait of herself as a violent would-be artist driven to the brink of insanity by amphetamines. It is frustrating because as a protagonist she is so unlikable, but at the same time the Mr. Toad's Wild Ride that she takes us on is compelling. The frustrating part of this book is that we don't really see her ultimate redemption, just her trip through hell.

                            I'VE READ MANY BOOKS ON THE SIXTIES WARHOL FACTORY SCENE AND ITS FOLLOWERS AND THIS ONE WAS BY FAR THE FUNNIEST,MOST TRUTHFUL ACCOUNT OF THE WHOLE FACTORY SCENE THAT I HAVE READ TO DATE(I READ IT IN A DAY). I BELIEVE MARY'S ACCOUNT OF THE STORY BECAUSE SHE PUTS IT ALL OUT THERE AND PULLS NO PUNCHES.
                            IF YOU READ SOME OF THE OTHER ACCOUNTS OF THE FACTORY(DEPENDING ON WHO WROTE IT)THE WRITER ALWAYS TRYS TO PLAY DOWN THIER OWN PART IN THE MANIA. MARY DOES NOT DO THAT. SHE WAS A SPEED FREAK AND LETS YOU KNOW IT. I THOUGHT IT WAS GREAT.HOWEVER I THINK ANYONE WHO DOES NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THAT ERA WOULD HAVE A HARD TIME READING IT.

                            4 out of 5 stars icily seductive.......2004-08-31

                            If you're expecting soup cans and canned supertars, you may be in for a shock. This is the squalid, squirming flip side of the swinging sixties, and Warhol is little more than an intermittent background hum. False advertising? not really, for Woronov-star of Chelsea Girls and other Warhol films-serves up a memoir tthat's both seedier, sleazier, and more sophisticated than the standard celebrity tell-all.

                            Woronov is icily seductive, coaxing the reader into a tar pit of sex and death, of drugs and drag queens, of the twilight zone between real life and hallucination. All-night speed binges, Velvet Underground gigs, the woman without a vagina-this freakshow is closer to David Lynch or Hieronymous Bosch than any of Warhol's dry-cleaned imagery. The book reads like a flashback; one moment you'll feel there's nothing going on, and the next you'll be sent spinning by a cunning metaphor or appalling image. A sleeper of a book, but full of strange and affecting dreams.

                            4 out of 5 stars Interesting, strange.......2004-01-30

                            I read this because I like a lot of Mary Woronov's films and she seems pretty cool, so, what the heck. I know virtually nothing about Andy Warhol and the Factory, except for what I got in art history classes, which was pretty bland. I *think* I got a lot of this book, but who knows. It was tremendously interesting, and some parts are really, really funny. Others are really, really scary. For anyone interested in Andy Warhol and the people who made up the Factory, this book is for you. Mary Woronov was there and there is a chapter about many of the main people. It didn't mean much to me apart from entertainment because I had/have no idea who these people were/are, but for someone more serious about these people, this would be a must-read book. For the casual fan of Mary Woronov, you get a sense of her funny personality and stuff, her youth and college are covered, but there's nothing after the Factory. Whatever your interests, the book keeps your attention and is a great read.

                            5 out of 5 stars The Hardest Girl in the world!.......2003-05-25

                            Mary Woronov's Years in the Warhol Scene/Factory! I loved this Book! The style, the juxtaposition of Hard edged Woman & a lost little girl. I loved that she was "unlikable" This is the type of strong heroine the Suburban punkettes should be emulating. She knows who the fakers are and where they reside. She follows her Own path on her Own terms. When she almost allowed that Stalker girl to get hit by the train I was Jarred but secretly hoping for, as Mary was for an ending worth telling the Grandkids about! Don't be afraid to Swim Underground!
