The Best Book on Money You’ll Ever Read

And achieve financial freedom

Hello friend-

I am writing this newsletter late in the night as I didn’t get chance to write in advance. When I started this newsletter I promised that I would write to you every week and I don’t want to break my promise.

This Book Changed My Mind

I don’t read many finance books, because it’s jarring and sometimes hard to apply in real life. However, I would definitely recommend reading “The Psychology of Money” It will change your financial life.

If you decide not to, remember that true wealth is quiet and control of your time leads to happiness.

You don’t make money because you want to make money. You make money to solve problems or provide a service.

“Use money to gain control over your time.”

Setting your financial goals, start investing early, and reviewing your investment portfolio at the end of every month is a terrific way to stay on track.
