Wealth Secrets of the Affluent : Keys to Fortune Building and Asset Protection

Richard A. Ferri

Many of the stuff that are in this book have been mentioned in his other books but you might still want to check it out. I love Richard Ferri's books. This is one of them. If you are clueless about financial investment and want to get started on it, then read this book. Also recommended are All about Index Funds, Serious Money, and The ETF Book. Unlike books that promote sales pitch and sell garbages like (IBD: Investor's Business Daily or even Wall Street Journal) Ferri provides sound studies done on investment strategies, sound strategies, expectation and mindset. However it does not cover all the story. You still need to understand our debt-based economic structure and fractional banking monetary system to avoid heavy losses during severe recession or depression. I recommend The Creature from Jekyll Island: A Second Look at the Federal Reserve and Crash Proof: How to Profit From the Coming Economic Collapse (Lynn Sonberg Books) for that. Leer más…

"Wealth", unfortunately whilst touching upon the main wealth-building strategies for HNWIs, falls short of providing any tangible and deeper insights for ways in which aspiring and current HNWIs could employ on a practical basis. An overall sub-par product that will disappear amongst the myriad of other wealth creation and management books. Leer más…

Paul B. Farrell

Praise for THE MILLIONAIRE CODE "A wonderfully worthy book, especially in an era when the wrong kind of capitalism has been in the driver’s seat. The Millionaire Code is about something far more noble than money–the joy of living your life to the fullest simply by finding what it is you love to do, and then doing it. ‘Hats off’ to Paul Farrell for picking up where William Shakespeare left off: ‘This above all: to thine own self be true.’" –John C. Bogle Founder and former CEO, The Vanguard Group "To make your savings grow, you need to know three things: the way the markets work, the way market history works, and the way you work. Let Paul Farrell take you on an enlightening, enjoyable, and profitable journey to the inner self of the successful investor." –William J. Bernstein, PhD, MD author of The Four Pillars of Investing: Lessons for Building a Winning Portfolio and The Intelligent Asset Allocator "Combining personality theory, solid investment advice, and Zen philosophy, Paul Farrell demonstrates concretely how necessary it is to combine your personality and investing styles in order to create meaningful wealth.

Ronald D. Michman, Edward M. Mazze

By any measure, the affluent sector is growing exponentially, and is far more diverse (in terms of ethnicity, education, location, and professional background) than any time in the past. This market represents lucrative opportunities for companies that understand how these customers think, act, and make purchasing decisions. Applying primary research, including demographic and economic data, and expertise developed from decades of studying, teaching, and consulting in marketing and consumer behavior, Ronald Michman and Edward Mazze present a comprehensive approach to analyzing the affluent consumer—and creating, promoting, and selling innovative products and services to them. Illustrating their principles through dozens of examples, including Armani, Mercedes Benz, Brooks Brothers, Neiman Marcus, Merrill Lynch, Tiffany, and even discounters, such as Target and Wal-Mart, the authors deconstruct how a complex market segment works. Dispelling popular myths and misconcpetions about the composition and behavior of this segment, they provide not only a practical guide for marketers and students of marketing, but a fascinating glimpse into a culture driven by materalism, status, and aspirations to luxury.By any measure, the affluent sector is growing exponentially, and is far more diverse (in terms of ethnicity, education, location, and professional background) than at any time in the past.

James E. Hughes (Jr.)

The landmark book that changed the way exceptional families think about their heritage, their wealth, and their legacy to future generations-- now revised and expanded. Every family, looking at the next generation, hopes to confer advantages that are more than just material and financial--to inculcate character and leadership, to inspire creativity and enterprise, to help all family members find and follow their individual callings, and to avoid the financial dependency and loss of initiative that can all too often be an unwanted consequence of financial success. Yet many families never succeed in realizing that vision, much less sustaining it for three, four, or five generations and beyond. James Hughes has thought deeply about these challenges, and his insights are at once practical and profound. For more than three decades, he has personally guided multiple generations of families in creating strategies to preserve their human and intellectual capital as well as their financial assets. His teachings synthesize insights from psychology, anthropology, political history, philosophy, economic theory, and the law, with examples ranging from Aristotle to cutting-edge social science theory. His ideas have been taken up by numerous exceptional families, by their advisers, and by scores of authors, practitioners, and academics who have found value in the methods he pioneered. The first edition of this book, privately published, became a word-of-mouth classic. Now, Hughes has... Leer más…

Omar Johnson

You went to school and you learned about various subjects. You learned about math, science, history, how to read and write along with other things. Wonderful! However, what the school system neglected to teach you about is the subject of MONEY. They never taught you what money truly represents; where it comes from, how to manage it, how to invest it and how to save it. Sure they may have reviewed some of the basics, but of course that wasn’t enough and as a result you fail at the money game.You don’t know how to save or invest and you are over leveraged on your credit cards. In fact according to statistics the average U.S. household credit card debt stands at $15,185 with 45 million Americans having outstanding balances of $10,000 or more. Practically all of these people went through the school system yet they are financially in trouble and in debt because they were never truly taught about money in school. In his book entitled “What They Didn’t Teach You in School About Money” Omar Johnson gives you the necessary information that will enable you to overcome your money ignorance. You will learn how to manage your money, how to invest and save it, how to make more of it and much much more. Leer más…
