Gets right to the point.

Great stuff. He says what you need to hear, not necessarily what you want to hear or what sounds good. I liked the narrator too.

7 habbits is trash.

Larry is a successful "joe plumber" who is trying to teach people what he has learned. He belongs in the same club with richard marcinko. I tried the "7 habbits" way and the "what color is your parachute " way. All that I got was an ulcer,and a divorce . Larry's way of teaching basic rules of life is refreshing. Now I work my ass off! I get respect. I have loyal custmomers. I have a strong marriage and I have a better relationship with money.

One of the best books!

I love this book and how it touches on every aspect of life. The reader is difficult to listen to and never delivers the "goods" the way the author would have. I recommend this book to anyone!

Larry Will Make You Think

Since I spend a lot of time driving, it was easier for me to absorb this through audio, which also means I didn't write out any of the suggested lists (yet). Everything Larry says makes you think, even if you disagree. After all, it's his take on life and he's very upfront about that. His thoughts on work, success, family, religion, money, and loads of other topics will most likely make you think, even if those thoughts are disagreement. Overall, I found this very refreshing, honest and thought provoking and it was well worth the time and money. In the end, if you think about what he says and act either on it or against it, it has been worth your time.
