Money, Mastering the game is better
Seemed like he made a quick buck chopping up his old book, less advice, and adding a new title. On the other hand, Money, Master the Game, I highly recommend.

Credible, wonderful insight
Excellent input from top minds. I’ve purchased several more copies of this book for family and friends. Very credible information about market trends and resilience but the best info describes the impact of unnecessary fees within the “wealth management “ industry. Very well done !!!!

Basically a shorter version of Money: Master the Game.
I wasn't very familiar with Tony Robbins until I watched a documentary about him on Netflix called I Am Not Your Guru. Yowza, that thing is crazy! I went from seeing Robbins as slightly weird and cheesy to seeing him as, well, still slightly weird but also...intriguing. I mean, the guy has presence, straight up. You can't help but be drawn to him. And he has interesting things to say in a unique way. That documentary definitely put him on my radar.So I saw this book and decided to give it a read, not really knowing what to expect. After finishing it, I realize I probably should have started with a different book. Unshakeable is short (unlike many of his others), but it's both a rehash of a book he wrote in 2014 called Money: Master the Game, as well as a teaser (it sounds like) for a book he's in the process of writing about gratitude and fulfillment. But apparently he wanted to write a shorter book summarizing Money: Master the Game in order to reach more people and help prevent them from being taken advantage of financially.The book is divided into three sections. Section 1 talks about basic money "rules." He explains financial terms, talks about the importance of investing in the stock market, explains the surprisingly predictable timing of market fluctuations over the years, and--most eye-opening for me--discusses all the hidden fees people end up paying, especially in 401(k)s. (Yikes, I had no idea.)Section 2 talks about financial plans: the importance of avoiding financial loss, risk to reward ratios, taxes, and diversification. Much of this section is written by Robbins's coauthor, Peter Mallouk, a top financial advisor in the industry. And Section 3 talks about the psychology of wealth--basically how and why you should control your mind so that you don't, say, panic and sell everything when the market tanks.Despite the fact that this book is simply the shorter "companion" to Money: Master the Game, I still learned a lot from it. And though I hate to admit to being upsold, I'm intrigued enough by this book to want to check out the 650-page tome it's based on. Robbins just knows how to tell a story and make generic, somewhat boring information seem relevant and exciting to us common folk on a very personal level. He's got skills, no doubt about it. But, to be fair, he also has good information to share, too. I read a lot of financial books and magazines, but I've never heard anyone talk about planning for retirement the way he does in here. It makes sense, and I appreciate the fresh perspective.So, yes, Tony, you sold me. I'll go read your giant Money: Master the Game book. And I'll probably read your next book on gratitude or whatever it is. I'm hooked. No point in fighting it.

Great Financial Advice!
There are a few books that I have read, and even before I finished them, realized that they changed something significant about my life. Unshakeable: Your FInancial Freedom Playbook by Tony Robbins is one of those.It wasn’t that the principles here are new to me. The concepts are actually pretty simple to grasp.Don’t operate out of fear, or invest according to emotion. Make your decisions based on logic.Invest for the long term. Compounding interest always wins.Minimize tax liability and fees.Diversify to protect yourself when down times come.Invest more when everything is on sale.Rebalance your investments, preferably annually.Just because I shared these basic highlights does not mean you do not need to read the book. Far from it. They absolutely mean you need to read it, because all of the principles in the list make sense, and you can know you should do them, but unless you know how, that knowledge is useless.You could flounder about on your own: I have done so most of my life. You can remake the mistakes others have made, and learn on your own. But that will be (and has been) an expensive choice.You can sit on the sidelines, living in fear and keeping your assets and investments in cash rather than getting into investing at all. This is the surest way to lose, especially with today’s low interest rates.Or you can instead learn from the masters. Read Tony’s book and not only will you learn from him, but you will learn from those he has known and worked with, some of the wealthiest and most successful investors on the planet. You will also learn how to choose a financial advisor of your own, where to set up your retirement funds and how, and even more.I can’t say enough about this book, but I can’t leave the review without talking about the final chapter, something I have been talking about and trying to master the last few years. Tony tells you of his journey and gives you his advice about how to be personally wealthy--in a beautiful state rather than a suffering state no matter what your circumstances.This takes a disciplined mind, and it is only a disciplined mind that will follow the advice outlined in this book. The biggest obstacle to your success in any area is you, and this book will teach you how to overcome that in more than just your finances.Five stars. Well done. Well edited and written. If you don’t read another book about building wealth and finances this year, make reading this one a top priority. You won’t regret it.

But does it work....yes!
Great information. It was clear and easy to understand. I tired some of the suggestions as I was reading. Note I started this book jus prior to the "covid crash" (I made that up) so I called up my advisor ( who I had Learned was duly registered thanks to Tony ) and what do you know he did everything the book said he would do. He kept pushing to get me to invest more than I said I wanted to and he did all those fees that we're going to make him money. Now mind you I'm a little fish and don't have boocoos of money to invest however based on the calculations in the first year alone I would have given away $1,800.So I decided to call creative planning. Turns out this little fish has very little and didn't have enough liquid assets for need to have a managed account. They gave me some tips to put me on a mailing list that's continued to help me at zero expense.I followed their advice along with Tony's book have been able to make some Investments that have been successful. Even more so I was able to create a chart comparing what my dual-registered advisor said compared to the advice from creative Solutions and the book where I can visually see how those recommendations day after day outperformed the recommendations of my dual advisor.

Tony is great but this is very much for the American financial market. Always good to read Tony's books for the positive aspect but don't bother expecting too much if you're UK based in terms of the financial guidance.

Motivating but not as informative as expected.
Far too many "success and fail stories" but little relevant information about investment and markets. He refers a lot about his previous book (basically you "must" buy it to really get the secret to financial freedom) so that means you won't get it here.Half the book is about his billionaire friends successfully managing funds overseeing billions and their philanthropic missions, but no technical analysis and real examples to learn from.Long story short:- You won't find much relevant info regarding actual investment and budgeting towards a financial plan.- few good tips about self motivation (That's his field in my opinion) but only takes 2 pages out of hundreds.- informative chapter about insurances, fair enough.- if you want to read about the fantastic life of billionaires, then this is a book for you.-if you're looking to get to the point by reading about investment, financial planning, stock market, etc. You won't find much here.I rarely rate and review books, but I've to say I'm quite disappointed with this one.Unfortunately for me was a waste of time.

Three Stars
Too much for the American market does not really cover Europe or UK

Good advice gets lost in Robbins’ overkill on the coaching and repeated plugs for own company
A lot of “filler” commentary which unnecessarily lengthened the read. Some valuable investing advice, but a lot of plugs also for one of Tony’s financial investment companies which automatically leaves you feeling like the book was written to promote his business, despite him giving proceeds from the book to charity. I also find the coaching element a bit of overkill, although some may benefit from it. In short, some good advice but could have been condensed down.
