Retired at 27….. Who wouldn’t love that! Kirsty you are an inspiration to me and as I can only imagine to young business people everywhere. I have taken a few tips from your book that I have implemented in to my business (RED) so thank you for them. Thank you for pointing out that anyone can be in your position if they really want to be regardless of family history, education etc. Another fantastic book, what else would we expect from you!

As a business owner, sometime property investor and self confessed "guru-sceptic" and having read many books on property investment and business entrepreneurialism, I have recently ended a two year sabbatical from the genre by reading Kirsty Dunphey’s Retired At 27. What a breath of fresh air amongst an over-crowded bookshelf! Kirsty has achieved what many authors promise to show you how to do (without having done so themselves) – become financially secure through passion, determination, and inspiration. Kirsty does a magnificent job of describing the realities of becoming successful. Too often I’ve read of "theories" of success that have no pitfalls along the way, but Kirsty tells it how it is, and it’s not all beer and skittles. I’ve taken many things from Retired At 27 that I have applied to my own business, even though I’m in an industry far removed from real estate. In fact I read the book, cover to cover, in one sitting and was so inspired and re-invigorated I immediately wrote a list of a dozen changes and improvements I could make in my own life and business. I encourage everyone to leave their inhibitions and preconceptions at the door and read Retired At 27. As Kirsty says, "Never stop educating yourself. If you stop learning, you stop growing." And as I say, "In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice there is."

Wanting to start a business I felt overwhelmed, until I read Kirsty's second book. Wow!!! I could not put it down. It was motivating, inspiring and all I wanted to do was challenge the world. Kirsty makes anything and everything feel achievable, and encourages others to strive towards success. What an amazing role model and mentor. A must read!
Sam Appleyard
What an inspirational read!! Kirsty manages to provide the motivational platform from which to leap, without the arrogance of experience, and with the unexpected humbleness of a truly successful and amazing young woman.

Kirsty Dunphey, you were self-made long before you were a millionaire. This is a brilliant book that gives real advice for real people from real success. This is the second of your books that has grabbed 110 per cent of my attention. I'm placing my order now for the 3rd, 4th and 5th!
Dion Flanagan
You're an amazing little dynamo, Kirsty, and this book is another example of your business savvy, your down-to-earth approach, your phenomenal energy and your capacity to practice what you preach. I really enjoyed the treasure trove of practical strategies and anecdotes that highlight the many lessons and insights you so generously share. Congratulations on another educational, entertaining and easy-to-read addition to the Dunphey Library!

This was the first book I’ve read of Kirsty’s, and after reading it in 3 days I can’t wait to read her other book. Kirsty’s insight to success & business knowledge is just brilliant. Being a new business owner, I found Kirsty’s new book, ‘Retired at 27 – If I can do it anyone can’, to be practical, thought provoking and an imperative resource to anyone in business or even starting a new business.
Sam Cawthorn
I have just read Retired at 27 by Kirsty – just couldn’t put it down. Being a business owner for 20 years I just wished I had read a book like this back then, what a difference it could have made, I learnt by making mistakes. Well done Kirsty this book will help any age group achieve financial freedom
Malcom Riley
Retired at 27 reads just the way the author speaks! It's fast-paced, reader friendly and endlessly informative. There are so many tips that I can use in my everyday life to get where I want to be faster. I might even aim to make it by 27 myself!
Bella Fountain
I have just finished reading your second book and I found it really helpful. I think your first book inspired me on a personal level, but this one inspired me on a business one. Not many people lay out the negatives and the precautions (as well as the positives) and I thank you for this.
Belinda Leskiw
Kirsty is an inspiration to all. To follow in her footsteps makes my trip to business success that little bit easier. Through great motivation and brilliant business skill she has shown us all the way.
Elisa Rooney
I have just been reading Retired at 27 and am now using this book as a "bible" for setting up my businesses in the future. Kirsty has great insight into people and a great heart and I thank her very much for her coaching (through the book) and look forward to upcoming books that she writes.
