Review: A Delightful Romp Through the Real World of Business - To begin with I must confess to being an avid fan of Robert Ringer. And I was jumping up and down to see his updated version of his popular book "Winning Through Intimidation." While Ringer claims his book is not about intimidating people it really is. Yes, it's basically about protecting yourself from intimidators. But he also shows you how to become intimidating yourself. But that's a good thing. This is, after all, the business world and not a place for the weak sisters. By using terms like Screw U, Ringer causes the reader to have a method that will make him or her quickly recall everything in the book for a lifetime. Without knowing it, you'll memorize it. At least I did. I read the book in 1977 and during every conversation with a prospective client or a client I can see visions from Ringer's book. I can hear the language of one of the Types who would love to keep me from getting my chips. If I could only own two books in my entire lifetime they would be Winning Through Intimidation (preferably this updated version) and The Art of War by Sun Tzu. Those two books create a library of all the wisdom you need to take you through business life and make you a master. Ringer has an amazing sense of humor and shows from his own mistakes how to become a great business person. He's not afraid to put his own image on the line for all to see unlike some writers who would have you believe they've made no errors and never known a failure. To them I say, "Duh, even Babe Ruth struck out over 3000 times." You'll fail many times before you hit a ball and the person who doesn't fail simply never gets up to bat. The three decades since I first read this book have been a mixture of failures and successes. But I can honestly say that I have Ringer to thank for much of the success. And not a day in those three decades have gone by when I haven't thought at least one time of something in that great book. I too have been to Screw U. And as one who graduated with honors I suggest you buy this book and have it sent to you the fastest method possible. Then read it every month or every six months of your life. Arm yourself for the exciting but dangerous world of business and the earlier in your life you do it, the better. Is this book dated? NO. People don't change. They'll still go for your chips. They still try to keep you from getting your chips. But that's okay. After all, as Ringer says, life is just a game. And if it is just a game, why not play to win? Review: Amazing Book on Real Estate & Negotiating in General - A CEO friend of a 180-person company recommended this book to me years back when a family member was getting into the real estate biz (and I was helping out). What an awesome set of anecdotes on dealing with buyers and sellers trying to cut out “the middle man” — and how Ringer learned to make sure he got his slice of the deal. If you’re in real estate, if you ever middle man deals, or even if you just need to know how to negotiate, this book is chock full of useful tips, stories, and mindsets that’ll get you where you want to be: solidly in control of the negotiating table, and making sure to hold onto your slice! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,795,298 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,810 in Popular Applied Psychology #7,259 in Emotional Self Help #16,046 in Success Self-Help | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (76) | | Dimensions | 6.12 x 0.6 x 8.64 inches | | ISBN-10 | 1590770358 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1590770351 | | Item Weight | 11.2 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 240 pages | | Publication date | December 18, 2003 | | Publisher | MEV-M.

What an awesome set of anecdotes on dealing with buyers and sellers trying to cut out “the middle man” — and how Ringer learned to make sure he got his slice of the deal.

Negative comments with this face-value dismissal will OVERLOOK the UNREVEALED mindsets one should really have approaching business If I could, I would have read this book 10 years ago, well before I had my license ..... Today, Every business book will sell you on rosy green pastures in the industry as long as you give value and sing kumbaya ..... Leaving you ill-prepared for more experienced competitors, colleagues, even customers out for your Money ..... If you are really starting from the ground up in business, like ringer you WILL UNDOUBTEDLY face these challenges ...... Two lessons in the book conveyed much more vividly - - No one will be looking out for your interests - Power posture is EVERYTHING in negotiation Ringer DOES NOT use a know-all, 'guru' voice, simply stating - "this is how it's done, just listen because i'm successful"..... .......but rather he depicts all his lessons in detailed stories from his experiences, showing pitfalls and successful adjustments. To be fair, If I read this 10 years ago I probably would have made the same negative comments, seeing no immediate relevance before becoming an agent.... but that would be like trashing a ferrari because I didn't obtain my license yet I'll agree that maybe the book needs to be prefaced, that it's about his real estate journey .... so if you're going to read this book, an open-mind needs to be kept, enough to apply those challenges ..... if not you're probably not ready for it ..... or you're searching to learn from more 'guru'-type materials --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/16082994-to-be-or-not-to-be-intimidated](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/16082994-to-be-or-not-to-be-intimidated) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
