This book is about your financial life. We will talk about stocks, bonds, real estate, and private business investments. We will talk about lawyers, accountants, business and real estate brokers. What we will talk about most will be a mentality. We will talk about how you must start thinking about money and what it can do for you if you will let it. We will break down the choices that you must make every time you get a single dollar in your hand. We will talk about the opportunities that exist for you as an individual investor and how you can get into those opportunities. This book will show you everything that you need to know and to do, to build a fortune. I will repeat myself many times. There are a few things that I will say again and again. I hope that you understand, this is not an accident. I will say things so much that you will be saying to yourself, “Okay, Okay, I get it already, can we please move on?” We will see if you did indeed get it. There are millionaire maxims in here. These are quotes from other millionaires that I have picked up along the way. They are not mine, but they are from people who share the mentality. The mentality that is ours.
We will lay the ground work for everything that you need to know to build a fortune. We will cover all areas of personal finance to the point of exhaustion. Bear with me. We can make you rich.
Building a fortune is a very easy thing to do. There are only three steps; 1) get a job, 2) spend less than you earn, 3) invest your paycheck. That is it. It is very easy to understand, yet it is very hard to do. Any investing book will tell you the same thing; quit wasting your money, start investing it. Why is it so hard for us to actually do? Because we have to give up pleasure now, and we as a society are not very good at that. At the end of this book you will have a full understanding of what it all means and how it can be done.
