Praise for The Ten Roads to Riches

"When you come to a fork in the road to riches, follow Ken Fisher, the self–made billionaire and popular Forbes magazine columnist. I wish Ken′s canny wisdom had been in print when I was starting out."—Rich Karlgaard, publisher, Forbes magazine

"Oprah, Julius Caesar, sports, and garbage collectors. Ken Fisher′s The Ten Roads to Riches shows that while there isn′t one path to wealth,you do need a road map."—Pimm Fox, host of Bloomberg TV′s Taking Stock

"The Ten Roads to Riches gives you a front–row seat to learn from veteran money manager Ken Fisher how the richest built their wealth, and how you can too. Most every reader will find a path or two here that′s right for them. I highly recommend reading this new book."—ERIC TYSON, syndicated columnist and bestselling author of Investing For Dummies and Personal Finance For Dummies

"Trust me: over the long term, it′s more fun to be rich than to play games. . . . It might not feel that way short term, but that′s why we′ve got people like Ken Fisher, who can humorously tell us why we′re wrong and what we need to do better if we want to actually make some money."—James J. Cramer, CNBC′s Mad Money and TheStreet.com, from the Foreword to The Only Three Questions That Count
