If you're like most of us, you spend your whole damn life working for everyone else: the bank, your spouse, or your kids - it's rare that you carve out some time to stop and focus on the vitally important questions. You know, the one's that are critical, but not urgent, like: Why... am I still in this job? Wasn't this supposed to be a stepping-stone? Why do some people seem to be doing better financially than me? Will I end up eating home-brand bangers and watching Family Feud in retirement? Am I on the right path? Together we're going to answer these questions. I'll give you a step-by-step plan that will clear away the cobwebs of doubt and give you clarity and confidence. But to get the most out of it, you need to do your part: sit uninterrupted in an easy chair, with a biro, a cuppa and a Tim Tam or two. To be truly happy you must be in control of your financial life - or lack of money will control you forever. So in this book, I'm going to step out my plan -- a plan that's allowed me to tread my own path, and will allow you to do so too. Over the years I've successfully taught this plan to thousands of people, from elite athletes to single mums on Centrelink. I'm confident it will work the same for you as it did for for them. I understand how busy life is. The average visitor to my website stays for around 2.38 minutes (or so my web geek tells me)... and I'm asking you to spend an afternoon with me?! So at the start of this journey together, I want to honour your commitment, and that's why I'll make this promise to you: You will be able to buy everything you need, while achieving your number one goal: whether that be dumping your debts, radically paying off your dream home, or retiring with dignity. You'll achieve it without using a strict budget, or living like your poor old Aunty Mavis. Above all, I'll give you the freedom to tread your own path. Sounds like bulldust, right? All I ask is that you keep an open mind. Read this book in your comfy chair, enjoy the bik

Jim Simons is the greatest money maker in modern financial history. His record bests those of legendary investors including Warren Buffett, George Soros and Ray Dalio. Yet Simons and his strategies are shrouded in mystery. The financial industry has long craved a look inside Simo...ns's secretive hedge fund, Renaissance Technologies and veteran Wall Street Journal reporter Gregory Zuckerman delivers the goods. After a legendary career as a mathematician and a stint breaking Soviet codes, Simons set out to conquer financial markets with a radical approach. Simons hired physicists, mathematicians, and computer scientists - most of whom knew little about finance - to amass piles of data and build algorithms hunting for the deeply hidden patterns in global markets. Experts scoffed but Simons and his colleagues became some of the richest in the world, their strategy of creating mathematical models and crunching data embraced by almost every industry. Simons and his team used their wealth to upend the worlds of politics, philanthropy and science. They weren't prepared for the backlash. In this fast-paced narrative, Zuckerman examines how Simons launched a quantitative revolution on Wall Street, and reveals the impact that Simons, the quiet billionaire king of the quants, has had on worlds well beyond finance.

"Find out what many in the financial world don't want you to know. Laid-back investing is not only easier, it can actually make you richer.

You'll also learn why it's best to 'set and forget' your investments. And why, beyond a certain point, having more money is not the key to happiness.Unlike many writers of finance books, Mary is not selling anything (except this book!). She just wants you to do well. She's on your side.'Mary has that rare ability to cut through the jargon to what really matters. She combines expert wisdom and real-world insights, with fantastic results!'"--publisher's description.
