In today's economy, it's hard for middle class Americans to successfully navigate the world of personal finance. With the old ways proven unreliable, author and accounting expert Jeff W. Wilson II, CPA, dismantles conventional wisdom to present a fresh, easy-to-follow rule book for managing your money.
Written by a millennial who has not only survived the Great Recession but managed to financially prosper through it, The Lies Our Parents Were Sold and Told Us challenges old financial adages and shares the practices that the author has found to be personally profitable.
If going to college no longer ensures you'll get a job and buying a house isn't a guaranteed investment, how can you possibly secure your financial future? This groundbreaking guide demystifies the art of wealth building and explains how investing isn't just for the wealthy. While the stock market should be considered with healthy skepticism, it is a necessary part of moving up the economic ladder as, due to inflation, the more conventional ways of investing simply don't add up in the long run.
Follow these commonsense steps and you'll soon have your financial affairs in order...and be well on your way to investing in your profitable future.
