I haven’t read ‘Don’t Sign Anything’ yet but I’d like to get a hold of it, sounds like it’s got some good legal info in there. Just a word of warning though. I saw Neil Jenman on an ABC report that looked at vendor finance, it featured Steve quite a bit because of his wraps. Neil Jenman was bagging the hell out of vendor finance arrangements, basically calling them scams and unethical. While some people misuse wraps, which has led to their dubious reputation in some circles, when done with the interests of both parties in mind (ala Steve) then everybody wins. Neil Jenman seemed very narrow minded though and was very cynical about it all, so while I’m sure that the facts he presents in his book will be valuable (hence my reason for wanting to buy it) I would take his personal opinions with a grain of salt. He certainly doesn’t come across as someone with a positive outlook and inovative thinking, more like a self-inhibiting sceptic. Sorry about the gripe, I just dislike people who try to smother progressive thinking . . . hey, did you hear they found out the earth was round? [] . . . Sorry! LOL

There’s an accountant in Sydney called Shukri Barbara, from Property Tax Specialists. I saw him do a very brief presentation at yesterday’s Wealth Creator Magazine networking club meeting, apparently he does a bit of presenting here and there. He also regularly advertises in that mag. He talked a bit about strucures for asset protection and tax minimization, he seems to be pretty clued up on accounting for IPs etc. I have never actually had any business dealings with him however, although I’m also looking for a good accountant in Sydney. Does anyone know of Shukri and have any feedback about how good he is? In case anyone is interested, he’s in Rosebery and has a website at http://www.propertytaxspecialists.com.au.
