About this listen
The concept of borrowing against a properly structured life insurance policy as your own bank may sound complicated, but it can be a potent tool for creating liquid wealth. This is because of the power of compounding interest, which is a mathematical force that allows money to grow exponentially over time. By taking out a loan against your life insurance policy and investing the funds elsewhere, you can create more wealth than if you had saved up and paid cash for everything in your life.
There are several common ways people use this strategy to become their own bankers. For example, they may take out a loan to purchase cars or trucks, pay for college tuition, invest in real estate (either personal or investment), or buy business inventory. Each scenario has unique advantages and disadvantages that should be carefully considered before making any decisions. However, when done correctly, this strategy can be incredibly beneficial in creating liquid wealth over time.

What are the economic factors that influence quality of life? The essence of it is that life is in itself a cost, and one has to figure out a way to meet those expenses. The conventional way to go about meeting these costs is to find meaningful employment that leads to earnings. This is at least what everyone does to look for an income that can meet the expenses of life. This book, therefore, seeks to assess the whole income versus expenses of life, and analyze the ways by which life could be more enjoyable.

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.

This book guides you through each financial, medical, and familial decision, from taking advantage of the employer match your company offers for your 401(k) program to enrolling in Medicare to discussing housing options with your family.

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.
