JONES ON PROPERTY (the property game for fun and profit) 1977
I picked that up at a book sale a few years ago (for 20c).......a very good read.
This hard back book of 250 pages, " Jones on Property " ( The Property Game For Fun & Profit ) was written by Bob Jones and published by Fourth Estate Books Ltd in 1978. Good condition (watchers offered reserve)
" As a successful capitalist, outspoken political critic and radio talkback host, Bob Jones is a household name in New Zealand. He is also a practical authority on commercial property development and ownership. "
" In the early 1960s, when he started to make sizable sums of money, Bob Jones carefully analysed investment opportunities, including the sharemarket and 'various property investment alternatives.' He found his answer in commercial property. ' Everything swings for the property investors, ' he says. " And commercial property in particular stands our clearly as the best form of property investment. "
" This book is a distillation of practical advice about how to tackle the property field, and the pitfalls to avoid, based on his own hugely successful career. There are also, in his brightly written text, typically pungent swipes at the things he doesn't like. The list is a long one and includes Labour politicians, intellectuals, public servants, insurance salesmen ... "
He has another book written much later and called 'My Property World' which I borrowed from the library - again very good read.
