Product 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.
Amazon.com Review:
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

This book has no shortage of practical ideas for creating other streams of cashflow.
I found the beginning of the book to be very reasonable. One pieice of advice I thought was honest and realistic is that you will rarely beat the stock market, so pick a mutual fund that tracks the S&P 500, sink some cash into it, and don't look at it again for 30 years, counting on the natural growth of the market to give you a return. You can take smaller amounts of money and apply them more aggressively elsewhere.
After that sound advice, however, Allen gets into more aggressive stock and investment strategies such as options. It is interesting to read about the approach and worth considering if you have set a small percentage of your portfolio aside for aggressive investments.
One thing about the book that made me cringe - and I see this in other places like "Money" magazine - is the fact that the author seems to regard the entire value of your house as part of your net worth regardless of how much you owe on it. A more honest approach to real estate investment is given by Kiyosaki's "Rich Dad" books, which point out, quite astutely, that any money you owe is a liability and therefore only the equity in your house is part of your assets. What you owe counts against you.
In Robert Allen's book, there are memorable quotes scattered on each page that are worth remembering. One of them says something to the effect of "if you think nobody ... Read More

This books talks about multiple ways to earn income, ultimately leading to the goal of financial freedom. Having multiple streams of income is smart because it's risky to rely on one source when it could be taken away from you at any time, leaving you in the dust. Not only does the author talk about multiple streams, but if you are an employee, he talks about bringing value to your position. Keeping track of your finances and making every dollar count is also discussed. The idea is to create lifelong streams of income. The author also suggests to add at least one new income stream a year. What fantastic advice, which will ultimately lead to financial freedom. Wonderful book!!

Robert Allen hits the nail on the head here. I have 14 different streams of income in my business and it's the single reason for my continued success over 13 multi-million dollar years. Highly recommended!
