'How many millionaires do you know who have become wealthy by
investing in savings accounts? I rest my case.' - Robert G. Allen,
investment advisor and author of Multiple Streams of Income In many
people's thinking, the financial markets are reserved only for the
wealthy or people with financial or economic backgrounds. They
discard the idea of becoming involved in trading because they
perceive it to be too difficult. But Ross Larter, author of How to
Make Money on the Stock Exchange, believes that the markets provide
opportunities for everyone to generate income. Learning the skills
of trading on the stock market can provide you with the opportunity
to generate an income well into your retirement years. To those who
have walked the journey for a while, the stock market becomes like
an all-you-can-eat buffet, providing opportunity on a daily basis
for individuals to make money for themselves and their families.
How to Make Money on the Stock Exchange is written for ordinary
people, in everyday language, to help them understand how the stock
market works, and how to use this knowledge to acquire the
necessary skills to generate a secondary (and potentially a
primary) income by investing and/or trading on the markets. You
don't need to be a financial whizz-kid to make money on the stock
market. All you have to do is be willing, and take the time, to
learn about it. This book will show you how.
Tony Robbins, arguably the most recognizable life and business strategist and guru, is back with a timely, unique follow-up to his smash New York Times bestseller Money: Master the Game.
Market corrections are as constant as seasons are in nature. There have been 30 such corrections in the past 30 years, yet there's never been an action plan for how not only to survive, but thrive through each change in the stock market. Building upon the principles in Money: Master the Game, Robbins offers the reader specific steps they can implement to protect their investments while maximizing their wealth.
It's a detailed guide designed for investors, articulated in the common-sense, practical manner that the millions of loyal Robbins fans and students have come to expect and rely upon. Few have navigated the turbulence of the stock market as adeptly and successfully as Tony Robbins. His proven, consistent success over decades makes him singularly qualified to help investors (both seasoned and first-timers alike) preserve and add to their investments.
There are those who think the goal of investing is to beat the
market and amass as much wealth as possible, that street smarts and
hard work ensure investment success, and that the road to happiness
is paved with more of everything. And then there are those who get
it. Want a richer, calmer financial life? Jonathan Clements,
longtime personal finance columnist for the Wall Street Journal, is
here to help. His goal: to provide readers with a coherent way to
think about their finances, so they worry less about money, make
smarter financial choices and squeeze more happiness out of the
cash they have. How to Think About Money is built around five key
ideas: - Money can buy happiness, but we need to spend with great
care. - Most of us will enjoy an extraordinarily long life - and
that has profound financial implications. - We are hardwired for
financial failure, so sensible money management takes great mental
strength. - We need to bring order to our financial life - by
focusing on our paycheque, or lack thereof. - If we want to add to
our wealth, we should strive to minimise the subtractions.
Get rich slowly Financial independence is a marathon, not a sprint.
The financial crisis revealed the hazards of financial illiteracy.
Governments desperately want citizens to become financially
independent so they'll be less of a burden on them. Findependence
Day presents personal finance in a "can't put down" story format
easily digested by young adults entering the work force and the
world of money. Because money problems often cause marital
breakups, it focuses on the financial journey of a young couple who
experience the usual ups and downs of job loss, buying homes,
raising children, investing and pensions, starting businesses,
coping with stock market volatility and more. The secrets of
financial independence are critical wherever you are in the
financial life cycle: Newlyweds embarking on family formation will
discover the importance of financial planning. Debt-plagued
graduates will be motivated to embrace "guerrilla frugality."
Home-owners will learn the foundation of financial independence is
a paid-for home. Those in their first jobs will embrace employer
401(k) plans, traditional IRAs and Roth IRAs. New parents will
discover the need for life insurance and saving for children's
education. Mid-life investors will learn how to cut costs in their
portfolios while benefiting from the expertise of financial
planners. Those near retirement will learn about advanced concepts
like annuities and Asset Dedication. Jonathan Chevreau is the
editor of MoneySense magazine, former personal finance columnist
for the Financial Post and author of nine financial books,
including The Wealthy Boomer: Life After Mutual Funds. He's active
in social media and blogs at www.findependenceday.com. "Once in a
blue moon, a financial book is written that should be required
reading for all. Such is the case with Findependence Day." -- Peter
Grandich, The Grandich Letter "A tour de force: a personal-finance
book that is hard to put down." - Larry MacDonald,
CanadianBusiness.com "Having some fun while learning what's good
for you is a double win -- particularly learning what we all need
to know to live happier lives." - Charles Ellis, author of Winning
the Loser's Game This revised all-American edition features
end-of-chapter summaries of financial concepts learned, a glossary
and bibliography of books that will boost your financial literacy -
or that of your kids.

Just one simple idea could save you hundreds or even thousands of
dollars over a life time. This is an idea book that will inspire
you to look at your surroundings a little differently. The author's
challenge is to give you enough choices to get two or three ideas
to jump off the pages and grab you. Some of these choices are
really stupid and some are absolutely brilliant. You probably have
some better ideas you can share with the authors for their next
book. The first person to give the authors a new idea used in the
next book gets $50 per idea used.
Blending humour and behavioural economics, the New York Times
bestselling author of Predictably Irrational delves into the truly
illogical world of personal finance to help people better
understand why they make bad financial decisions, and gives them
the knowledge they need to make better ones. Why does paying for
things often feel like it causes physical pain? Why does it cost
you money to act as your own real estate agent? Why are we
comfortable overpaying for something now just because we've
overpaid for it before? In Small Change, world renowned economist
Dan Ariely answers these intriguing questions and many more as he
explains how our irrational behaviour often interferes with our
best intentions when it comes to managing our finances. Partnering
with financial comedian and writer Jeff Kreisler, Ariely takes us
deep inside our minds to expose the hidden motivations that are
secretly driving our choices about money. Exploring a wide range of
everyday topics - from credit card debt and household budgeting to
holiday sales - Ariely and Kreisler demonstrate how our ideas about
dollars and cents are often wrong and cost us more than we know.
Mixing case studies and anecdotes with tangible advice and lessons,
they cut through the unconscious fears and desires driving our
worst financial instincts and teach us how to improve our money
habits. Fascinating, engaging, funny and essential, Small Change is
a sound investment, providing us with the practical tools we need
to understand and improve our financial choices, save and spend
smarter and ultimately live better. Published in the US as Dollars
and Sense.
