Acerca de esta escucha
Unfortunately, in today’s school system, there is a severe lack of financial education. As a father of two young children, I decided to tackle this problem myself and set off to consolidate the lessons I wanted to teach my kids in a thoughtful and organized manner.
During the process, I realized the concepts and lessons I was trying to teach were not just crucial to my kids, but to everyone. I didn’t write book to tell you what to do; but to give you the tools to come to your own decisions. The foundation of finance is understanding how to run the numbers, and while there's nothing wrong with a rule of thumb, making an informed decision based on solid data is a guaranteed way to set yourself up for consistent success.
The chapters of the book are organized to align with the sequence of major financial decisions a typical person would encounter as he/she progresses through life. It gives real-life examples, walks you through the decision-making process, and, most importantly, shows you how to quantify your options. This book covers the following topics:
1. Time Value of Money
2. Compound Interest
3. Credit Cards
4. Purchasing a Car
5. Choosing a Career
6. Paying Off Student Loans
7. Defined Contribution Plans
8. Purchasing a House
9. Kids
10. Life Insurance
11. Investing for Retirement
Applying the concepts and techniques in this book will help you to make more informed data-driven decisions and set you on your way to financial literacy.

Investing in your future is easier than you think—discover how and achieve financial security more quickly than you can possibly imagine. Young adults are especially financially vulnerable because they’re just starting out, want a lot of “stuff,” and are not earning the big bucks yet. So, they’re borrowing too much and saving too little (if at all), and they’re in a financial mess. But it doesn’t have to be like that. Instead, imagine a life where you have peace of mind, because your financial affairs are in order, and you’re on the right path to building wealth.

We spend most of our adult lives working to be able to enjoy our retirement but forgetting that life was meant to be enjoyed in the here and now. But what if I told you that you didn’t have to live that way? What if I said you could work smarter rather than harder, retire early if you want to, travel the world, and make all of your dreams for the future a reality?

Written by a practicing emergency physician, The White Coat Investor is a high-yield manual that specifically deals with the financial issues facing medical students, residents, physicians, dentists, and similar high-income professionals. Doctors are highly-educated and extensively trained at making difficult diagnoses and performing life-saving procedures. However, they receive little to no training in business, personal finance, investing, insurance, taxes, estate planning, and asset protection.

How to make enough passive income from your properties to retire in 10 years, even if you have zero investments today. Do you want to shorten your years working a nine-to-five job and increase the years you’ll spend doing what you love, while you can still do it? Traditional wisdom advises us to keep toiling, scrimping, and saving until we finally reach the retirement age of 60, after which we can live off what we’ve saved and hope we die before it runs out.

Retirement doesn’t have to be reserved only for the old or the rich. More and more people have been able to retire early through creative ways, such as extreme frugality and investing 90 percent of their income. Quite a number still have been able to retire in their 20s, 30s, and 40s because of real estate. There are many different ways to invest in real estate, but one strategy in particular is popular because it’s easy for first-time investors to get into and assures reliable income that grows through the years.
