Customer Reviews
Lousy book. This review is from an actual buyer, not a friend of the author.
In the movie classic, "Network," from 1976, News Anchor Howard Beale makes the following statement. "I'M AS MAD AS HELL, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE! I want you to get up right now, sit up, go to your windows, open them and stick your head out and yell, I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore! Things have got to change. But first, you've gotta get mad!... You've got to say, I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore! Then we'll figure out what to do about the depression and the inflation and the oil crisis. But first get up out of your chairs, open the window, stick your head out, and yell, and say it: I'M AS MAD AS HELL, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE!" "Work From Home At Any age," by J J Luna makes me feel like doing just that. I purchased this book, based on the four 5 star reviews touting this to be one of the best books of its kind since the beginning of the written word. Some of the reviews were quite eloquent. Perhaps if the reviewers had written the book, instead of J J Luna, it might have contained some substance. As it stands, it is nothing more than common sense knowledge that anyone over the age of 12 would already be well aware of. If not, everything in the book could be readily accessible on the Internet or at your local library. "Work From Home At Any Age," author, J J Luna says to "find a niche, exploit it, and make good money." He has certainly followed his own advice by writing this book. The author is wealthy by over charging for a product that could be summarized in the form of a brief pamphlet. Don't believe the 5 star reviews you read on Amazon touting this book as a treasured masterpiece. The author is a great businessman and has undoubtedly given away free copies of this book in order to receive the 5 star ratings. Since I actually bought "Work At Home At Any Age," and read the entire contents in less than two hours, I can say without hesitation that it deserves the lowest rating possible on the Amazon scale. There is one good thing about the book, however. It seemingly weighs less than air, so when you return it to the seller you purchased it from, your postage costs will be quite low.
"Lousy book" or lousy REVIEWER ???
Reviewer Andy Rosenblum must have been having a really bad day when he wrote that pitiful review about "friends of the author." The book (now out of print) was later turned into an e-book called "Skip College: Go Into Business For Yourself" and I ordered it from canaryislandspress (dot) com after reading the sample pages on the website. Not only do I think it is worth far more than the small price the author charges, I have seen many favorable references to it on the internet and elsewhere. In fact, I am among the many hundreds, if not thousands, who will buy **anything** that JJ Luna writes! (His current best seller is an e-book called "Invisible Money.")
What a waste...
I loved this book. This is freedom!
I have held a few jobs in my time. For such a relatively short life, I've had experience in quite a few different industries. I couldn't afford college after high school; this was becoming apparent around 5th grade. I started working with friends in the janitorial and construction genre at age 12 in my spare time. I washed the neighbors' cars and cut their grass. Later I detailed cars and canvassed older neighborhoods for a general contractor who was offering remodeling services. By that time I was 20 and the majority of the adults I spoke to asked where I was going to school, listened to my most recent story of employment, shook their head and murmured, "What a waste..."
I attended a trade school. Later I found a niche and now I work for myself and earn a very prosperous living.
College didn't appeal to me. Anybody can read a list of books on a schedule and write an essay about what they learned and how it affects them. I'm not up to my eyeballs in education loan debt. College graduates hand ME a resume and a CV about once a month. I'm not taking on employees though. What a waste indeed!
JJ Luna's book "Work From Home At Any Age" describes the failure of the education system, the folly of living for inanimate objects and fancy things. The book offers a plan, a path to success in life not measured by the number of toys you acquire or labeled by your tax bracket.
He asks questions designed to make you decide for yourself what is important in your life. He encourages you to think for yourself. We have freedom to choose so many things for ourselves in the western world. Why be mashed into a mold by the faceless drab and boring state? Department of Education? Please. I know people - Adults - who can't tell me who won; the North or the South.
Mr. Luna doesn't sell you a packet of forms and certificates and call you a "team member" or induce you to join a pyramid. You don't have to recruit your family or friends and make them your "down-line" cells. There are no group meetings or audiotapes to buy.
To make a living - a really, really good living - no matter where you are geographically located, all you have to do is define success for yourself, find a niche market and budget your resources correctly.
As an old timer who has seen a lot, asked questions, and found the answers, JJ Luna provides his readers the motivation to mature, get away from your pushy boss and back-stabbing co-workers. Take time for yourself and learn to be happy in your life.
By following his advice, your health, family and future can be improved and enjoyed. No, really!
Get this book. Buy a box of 'em! Get as many people as you can to sit down and read it. *Especially young people.* It may not sink in now, but when it does, they will save years of their lives and tens of thousands of dollars when they skip college, learn a trade or create a niche, and run their own lives.
