About this listen
A Tale of Two Houses: Our Journey of Buying a House the Right Way After Buying One the Wrong Way teaches the costs of buying and selling a home. But it's not just a book of facts and figures. It also is a book that openly shares Jon's story through the entire process: the ups and downs, the joys and stresses, the expensive parts and the real life cost of real estate.
A Tale of Two Houses will help you answer the following questions:
- How to best find a real estate agent
- How much should I expect to keep from the sale of my current house?
- What type of mortgage should we take out?
- The best way to negotiate a sale or a buy
- How much house can I afford?
- Is it better to move yourself or hire someone else to do it?
When Jon bought his first piece of property 10 years ago, he had no clue whatsoever as to what he was doing or getting into. He made a lot of dumb mistakes that cost him thousands upon thousands of dollars not including the added stress to his life. After going through that experience and coming through the other side he was determined to not let that happen again.
So with his family's latest purchase of property in 2013 he documented every single detail related to the sale of his existing home and the purchase of the new one. In the end he got a great buy and a house that has been a financial blessing.
In coaching with people one on one and answering questions on his podcast Jon kept hearing the same worries when it came to buying a home
- Understanding all of the underlying costs of owning a home
- Falling home values and not having an emergency fund
- Getting trapped into something, not planning well
- Catastrophic failure of major issues that were missed in the inspection
- The cost of selling your current home and buying a future home - Is it worth the cost?

You Don’t Have to Drive an Uber in Retirement is a survival guide for your golden years, and a lifeline for those entering the Retirement Crisis unprepared. Roughly 45 percent of Americans have zero dollars saved for retirement - but the average retiree will spend $154,000 in out-of-pocket health care costs alone. We need to figure out how to generate more income, even in retirement, and spend less. How do we boost our retirement income? Is investing the way to go? This book does more than just answer the important questions - it gives you real-world tips to help you reach your financial goals.

TV analysts and money managers would have you believe your finances are enormously complicated, and if you don't follow their guidance, you'll end up in the poorhouse. They're wrong. When University of Chicago professor Harold Pollack interviewed Helaine Olen, an award-winning financial journalist and the author of the best-selling Pound Foolish, he made an offhand suggestion: Everything you need to know about managing your money could fit on an index card.

Very few careers can offer you the freedom, flexibility, and income that day trading does. As a day trader, you can live and work anywhere in the world. You can decide when to work and when not to work. You only answer to yourself. That is the life of the successful day trader. Many people aspire to it, but very few succeed. In the audiobook, I describe the fundamentals of day trading, explain how day trading is different from other styles of trading and investment, and elaborate on important trading strategies that many traders use every day.

Since you were old enough to hold a job, you've been hoodwinked to believe that wealth can be created by blindly trusting in the uncontrollable and unpredictable markets: the housing market, the stock market, and the job market. I call this soul-sucking, dream-stealing dogma "The Slowlane" - an impotent financial gamble that dubiously promises wealth in a wheelchair. For those who don't want a lifetime subscription to "settle-for-less", there is an alternative.

Decent primer on home buying
If you could sum up A Tale of Two Houses in three words, what would they be?
Despite the literary title, it's a pretty to-the-point survey on home buying terminology and numbers. The author is the narrator and he seems like a sincere person. Hate to sound harsh but he is not much for read-alouds; when he stumbles he did not bother doing a second take, etc. Seemed like minimal effort into the reading part, which is too bad because it distracts from a well-organized, thoughtful piece.
By the way, the actual book is about 2 hours and change. The rest of the recording consists of old podcasts that are pretty redundant.
