Set for Life Great Property Book

 

As part of my weekend I always try to learn and read in order to grow our families property business. There is nothing new under the sun and everything regarding property can be learnt. No need for courses….see real world examples of successful investors…put your own personality on the method & start. Starting is the most important issue. The money will come.

In the book Set for Life….there are some interesting take aways..

 

Set yourself up for life as early as possible and enjoy life on your terms!

Are you tied to a nine-to-five workweek? Do you work hard making someone else rich? Are you financially free—the sort of free that ensures you spend the best part of your day and week, and the best years of your life doing what you want? Would you like to “retire” from wage paying work within ten years? Why not build and follow a plan that allows you to live the life of your dreams?

This isn’t about saving up a nest egg. It’s not about setting aside money for a “rainy day” or just accumulating an emergency fund. It’s about building out a Financial Runway. It’s about creating enough readily accessible wealth that you can survive without work for a year. Then five years. Then for life. Set for Life is a three-step guide that gives readers the fiscal confidence they need to achieve early financial freedom.

Readers will learn how to:
• Save more income—50+ percent of it, while still having fun
• Double or triple your income in three to five years
• Secure “real” assets and avoid “false” ones that destroy wealth
