Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A simple guide to a smarter strategy for the individual investor A Wealth of Common Sense sheds a refreshing light on investing, and shows you how a simplicity-based framework can lead to better investment decisions. The financial market is a complex system, but that doesn't mean it requires a complex strategy; in fact, this false premise is the driving force behind many investors' market "mistakes." Information is important, but understanding and perspective are the keys to better decision-making. This book describes the proper way to view the markets and your portfolio, and show you the simple strategies that make investing more profitable, less confusing, and less time-consuming. Without the burden of short-term performance benchmarks, individual investors have the advantage of focusing on the long view, and the freedom to construct the kind of portfolio that will serve their investment goals best. This book proves how complex strategies essentially waste these advantages, and provides an alternative game plan for those ready to simplify. Complexity is often used as a mechanism for talking investors into unnecessary purchases, when all most need is a deeper understanding of conventional options. This book explains which issues you actually should pay attention to, and which ones are simply used for an illusion of intelligence and control. Keep up with—or beat—professional money managers Exploit stock market volatility to your utmost advantage Learn where advisors and consultants fit into smart strategy Build a portfolio that makes sense for your particular situation You don't have to outsmart the market if you can simply outperform it. Cut through the confusion and noise and focus on what actually matters. A Wealth of Common Sense clears the air, and gives you the insight you need to become a smarter, more successful investor.

Download or read book My Money My Way written by Kumiko Love and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-02-01 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does fear and insecurity keep you from looking at your bank account? Is your financial anxiety holding you captive? You don’t have to stress about money anymore. YOU can take back control. As a newly divorced single mom making $24,000 per year and facing down $77,000 in debt, Kumiko Love worried constantly about money. She saw what other moms had—vacations, birthday parties, a house full of furniture—and felt ashamed that she and her son lived in a small apartment and ate dinner on the floor. Worse, when her feelings began to exhaust her, she binge-shopped, reasoning that she’d feel better after a trip to the mall. On the day she needed to pay for a McDonald’s ice cream cone without her credit card, she had an epiphany: Money is not the problem. Self-Doubt is the problem. Shame is the problem. Guilt is the problem. Society’s expectations for her are the problem. She is the solution. Once she reversed the negative thinking patterns pushing her toward decisions that didn’t serve her values or goals, her financial plan wrote itself. Now, she’s not only living debt-free in her dream home, which she paid for in cash, but she has spread her teachings around the world and helped countless women envision better lives for themselves and their families. Now, building on the lessons she’s taught millions as the founder of The Budget Mom, she shares a step by step plan for taking control back over your financial life—regardless of your level of income or your credit card balance. Through stories from navigating divorce to helping clients thrive through recessions, depression, eviction, layoffs and so much more, you will learn foundational practices such as: How to use your emotions to your financial advantage, instead of letting them control you How to create a budget based on your real life, not a life of self-denial How to create a motivating debt pay-off plan that makes you excited about your future, instead of fearing it My Money My Way will give you the tools to align your emotional health with your financial health—to let go of deprivation and embrace desire. Love’s paradigm-shifting system will teach you how to honor your unique personal values, driving emotions, and particular needs so that you can stop worrying about money and start living a financially fulfilled life.

This book was released on 2011-01-25 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With lease options and subject-to deals, investors can control properties worth much more than what they could normally afford to purchase. The potential for profit is great and the costs of getting started are low. This book shows novice investors how author Wendy Patton and thousands of other Americans--including well-known real estate developers and business moguls--use lease options and subject-to deals to control valuable property without necessarily owning it. The cost of purchasing an option or subject-to deal is a fraction of what it costs to buy a home. That's why these kinds of deals are typically found in every serious investor's portfolio. Sharing the secrets and strategies investors use to profit from low- and no-money-down deals, Patton gives investors all the information they need to succeed.

Download or read book Managing Lease Portfolios written by Townsend Walker and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-08-24 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leasing is one of today's more complex forms of financing, and, unless you have extensive experience in this arena, making informed decisions can be difficult. Over the life of a lease, its risks and returns change, and the factors that affect the risks and returns also change. In Managing Lease Portfolios, Townsend Walker, an expert in this field, explains how to evaluate the risk of lease portfolios as well as hedge their long-term, non-traded risks. Here, you’ll learn how to apply various financial tools to your portfolio of leases and discover the work that goes into each step—such as measuring the risks of a lease, calculating the returns, and estimating the effects of diversification. Many of the ideas and concepts found within this comprehensive resource have existed for a number of years in the fields of foreign exchange, interest rate and credit derivatives, and the bond and stock markets. This book adapts and applies these concepts to managing leases. Then it illustrates how you can implement these new concepts through concrete models that have been proven to work in the real world.

Download or read book Car Leasing Done Right written by Jorge Diaz and published by LeaseCosts Canada Inc. This book was released on 2021-11-05 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vehicle leasing is one of the most cost-effective ways of solving transportation needs in Canada. Still, it doesn’t mean everybody does it right. It took more than 15 years to gather all the information provided in this book. It is a guide that will help anyone to confidently sign and satisfy his/her transportation needs with a lease contract. You will learn to easily understand the numbers. How to sign a contract that gives you peace of mind. How to transfer your lease without affecting your credit. You will learn the right way of leasing a car you can afford without hurting your finances. And many more other tips for your insurance, warranty, saving money and time. This book is divided into three main parts: Vehicle Leasing Basics, Lease Transfer & Takeover, and Car Leasing Statistics in Canada. If you are new to car leasing (or financing) or just want to get rid of all those doubts you may have regarding a vehicle purchase, Part One: Vehicle Leasing Basics, is a must-read. You will learn to understand all the way down from pricing, kilometers (km), term, agreement and all other factors that define a lease contract. You will come to understand these all in a way that won’t make getting your next car a big deal. Simply put, leasing a vehicle will seem like the regular transaction it was always supposed to be. Additionally, you will learn about the coverage products that come along with your car. Those designed to cover the “unexpected” and give you peace of mind. Scratches, dents, and damage will always happen because your vehicle (and others) are on the go. It was designed and expected to receive damage, wear, and depreciation. You just need to be prepared for it! Next, in Part Two: Lease Transfer & Takeover, you will learn the perks of one of the most important components of a lease contract: the opportunity to terminate your contract by giving it away to someone else. You will learn about the process, the benefits, and the costs of doing this. Although we can all estimate how long we might need a car, life will always throw surprises at us and our loved ones: a newborn, a new work vehicle, new routes to a new office, downsizing, or any other major life change. After operating the LeaseCosts™ Lease Takeover Marketplace for years, I’ve learned so many things that would love to share with you here, from both the buyer and the seller perspective. And Part Three: Car Leasing Statistics in Canada, will give you a lot of new insights on how we Canadians consume our vehicles. You will also get a look into a deep 15-year study that involves over 23,000 vehicle leasing contracts cross-country that will help you understand things like: - How much Canadians pay per month on average on a car lease. - The average for each specific car make. - The most popular leasing terms by manufacturer. - The average down payment for Volkswagen, Audi, KIA, etc. and how many people make a down payment. - How many people actually take the Wear & Tear coverage [LA1] [JD2] and how it can impact on future unexpected events. - The kind of average payment you should expect for high-end vehicles compared to mass-market ones. - How much you should offer as an incentive if you need to transfer your lease. After finishing all three parts, you will walk away with a solid understanding of how car leasing works in Canada – and I guarantee that you will feel prepared and confident when considering and signing your new car lease.
