About this listen
In two days, tomorrow will be yesterday. So today, start to build wealth, protect your retirement savings, and plan to strategically and responsibly spend it or gift it all away before you die.
By listening to this audiobook, you will learn:
- Why you should want to be "wealthy" - not "rich"
- The keys to building wealth: passive income and "other people's time"
- Which financial products and investment strategies are most reliable
- Why your retirement savings are at risk of being redistributed
- Why you should spend or gift away your wealth before you die
The best revenge in old age is having a life well lived. Don't depend on your IRA, 401(k), and Roth plans being there for you:
- Nationalization of foreign retirement plans is happening now
- The U.S. federal government has plans for a nationalized retirement scheme
- Your retirement dollars will bail out underfunded union and municipal retirement programs
Instead, build wealth using these tools:
- Assets vs. liabilities - invest in real assets
- Economic cycles - use them to your advantage
- Demographics - the looking glass into your destiny
And plan to enjoy every dollar you have ever saved:
- Set your lifestyle priorities
- Protect your retirement savings
Die broke by strategically spending your wealth without being destitute or wasting your money on insurance products.
Your grave stone will have two dates separated by a hyphen. You have no control over the dates, but you do have control over the hyphen... that's your life. Let this book help you to make the most of that hyphen.
This audiobook will help you climb the "net worth mountain" and enjoy the view from the top, and it will be your guide as you descend, strategically spending and gifting away every single dollar you have earned and saved... spending it all!
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

But what if I told you that you didn’t have to live that way?

In The Real Crash, New York Times best-selling author Peter D. Schiff argues that America is enjoying a government-inflated bubble, one that reality will explode... with disastrous consequences for the economy and for each of us. Schiff demonstrates how the infusion of billions of dollars of stimulus money has only dug a deeper hole: The United States government simply spends too much and does not collect enough money to pay its debts, and in the end, Americans from all walks of life will face a crushing consequence.

Stephanie Kelton's brilliant exploration of modern monetary theory (MMT) dramatically changes our understanding of how we can best deal with crucial issues ranging from poverty and inequality to creating jobs, expanding health care coverage, climate change, and building resilient infrastructure. Any ambitious proposal, however, inevitably runs into the buzz saw of how to find the money to pay for it, rooted in myths about deficits that are hobbling us as a country.

America's elite have been using cash value life insurance to stockpile wealth for centuries. Used correctly, it is better described as a personal bank on steroids, and a financial bunker for tough times. To be clear, this audiobook is not about the typical garbage peddled by most insurance agents. Rather, an alternative to the risky investment strategies taught by Wall Street. It details a highly efficient form of cash value life insurance designed to supercharge your savings and stockpile wealth.
