This is likely one of your most important books. Everyone needs to be educated on financial literacy. It could mean financial salvation in a world of uncertainties.
It attempts to capture the important aspects of personal financial management. These are the chapters:
1. The Foundations – live a simple life, stay healthy and invest in yourself
2. Start financial literacy early
3. Start investing early
4. Earn more than you spend
5. Think twice before taking on debts
6. The significance of investment as a second income stream
7. Max out subsidized retirement schemes
8. Take advantage of employee stock purchase plans
9. To buy or not to buy your own home
10. The effect of compounding
11. Understanding major investment types
12. Managing risks
13. Diversification
14. Sound portfolio management
15. Dollar-cost averaging
16. Expenses matter
17. Tax matters
18. The macro picture
19. The art and science of stock picking
20. Be very disciplined in your approach
21. Common sense is not beyond you
22. Setting goals and monitoring progress
23. Making sense of financial statements
24. Brokerage/Trading platforms
25. Professional advisors and asset management services
26. Have adequate insurance coverage
27. With my best wishes
These good practices in the book are proven and espoused by many professionals.
With financial literacy comes financial wisdom. With financial wisdom, we have a good chance of achieving financial freedom sooner. I set out the compelling reasons, by putting them down in numbers and putting forward the arguments with practical examples, for the actions required. Downloadable financial templates are also made accessible so everyone can create scenarios that better match theirs. There are specific steps we can take to change our fate in life, so that we do not leave it to chance to make it happen.
There are people we know, people we came across, people who are close to us, people who are related to us, that we feel for, care for. They need help, but we have limited means. Our resources, no matter how well-off we are, are finite. But knowledge can be shared, infinitely. I hope this book helps them to help themselves.
If you have $5000, or, if you are starting to have regular savings of $100/ month, what do you do with it? The takeaway, after reading and assimilating the essence of the book, you should have a good idea of where and how to start.
It should enrich you.
About the Author
A professional Accountant and a father of two young adults.
I grew up in Malaysia and have lived and worked in Malaysia, Singapore, New Zealand and China. An avid traveler, I have traveled to all the continents except Antarctica. An eyewitness of too many people stuck hopelessly in a financial swamp, unable to extricate themselves.
I have bought stocks, I have also bought bond and mutual funds, and ETFs. I have done it myself and I have also engaged the service of asset managers. I have used different brokerage platforms to trade myself, and I have placed trades through intermediaries. I have gone through different boom-bust cycles. I have seen a portfolio sink by 30% or more, and portfolios remain stagnant for years. I have bought funds on the recommendations of the fund brokers that are still losing money after more than a decade. I have lived in different countries that do well and others that do not.
A financial independent.

Descripción de la tienda
**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…

Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.

Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
