Book excerpt: "We all are inherently rich people, some of us just make poor decisions when it comes to achieving our goals in life."This book identifies behavioral patterns seen over the years that represent poor decisions if your intentions are to live a rich life. By rich I don't mean having a life with large amounts of money at your disposal. I mean living a life where you don't have to worry about or take on debt to pay for things you need. You have a relationship with yourself and others that isn't influenced by the amount of money you have. You live without the psychological effects of fear, anger, panic, stress, powerlessness and self-esteem issues that not having money can bring. But more importantly, you are free to focus on and pursue those long-term life goals.I relay the rich and poor financial decisions seen throughout my years of traveling the world and working positions from a janitor to a lead architect at a Fortune 500 company with over a $100 billion in annual revenue. The way I thought best to relay financial and life lessons I've learned is through my personal relationships established over the years. The relationships introduced in the chapters are ones formed from college up until now and cover rich and poor decisions made along with their effects. The relationship stories cover decision making principles like Taking Ownership. Taking ownership over your actions and future.Social Pressure. Not allowing social pressures and vanity to influence your decision-making process.Setting Expectations. Mixing unrealistic expectations with a desire for others to solve your life's problems.Family. Understanding the influences of family and upbringing on your choices.Relationships. How to effectively identify relationships that add value to your life.Time Allocation. And utilizing effective time management to achieve what you set out to.and a few others. All relationships ultimately illustrate the decisions we make are important and have a direct effect on our futures, good or bad. I tell these stories in an entertaining yet informative way and end the book with some financial commandments to live by.This book is for someone who is just starting out and looking for sound financial principles to use for purposes of avoiding pitfalls that others before them in similar situations have fallen. It is also for people well within their financial journey but have ran into some of those pitfalls and are looking for a way to make effective changes in their life. For those who live a financially sound life this book is for you too as it is important to be reminded why you make the financial decisions that you do and potential consequences of not doing so.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We make decisions, and these decisions make us and our organisations. And in theory, decision-making should be easy: a problem is identified, the decision-makers generate solutions, and choose the optimal one - and powerful mathematical tools are available to facilitate the task. Yet if it is all so simple why do organisations, both private and public sector, keep making mistakes - the results of which are borne by shareholders, employees, taxpayers and ultimately society at large? This guide to decision making. by leading decision science academic Helga Drummond, aims to improve decision-making in organisations. It explores how and why decisions go awry in the first place - and offers practical advice on what decision-makers can do to counter the psychological, social and other forces that can undermine individual judgment and pull organisations off course. Full of examples of good and bad decision-making from around the world, it will make readers think more clearly about decisions big and small.

Book excerpt: Nick A man like me has certain tastes. And needs. I’ll pay top dollar for whatever I’m craving. No price is too high if it means I get what I want. What I desire. Until one day when a certain blonde walks in and turns my life upside down. All I need is one month to get her out of my system forever. At least that’s what I hope. Cherry Lying on my back for rich guys is not my idea of a dream job. Ever since my world imploded, I’ve had to do what I’ve had to do. I’m not proud of it. But I’m a survivor. I’ll do whatever it takes. Until I lay eyes on my billionaire client, Nick. The things he does to me—and the way he makes me feel, blows my mind and shakes my reality. When he asks for one month of exclusivity—I can’t say no. My head tells me I can keep it professional. My heart isn’t so sure. After all, it’s just another job. Right?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Economist Best Book of the Year "Making Money and Keeping It" – The Wall Street Journal Over the past century, if the wealthiest families had spent a reasonable fraction of their wealth, paid taxes, invested in the stock market, and passed their wealth down to the next generation, there would be tens of thousands of billionaire heirs to generations-old fortunes today. The puzzle of The Missing Billionaires is why you cannot find one such billionaire on any current rich list. There are a number of explanations, but this book is focused on one mistake which is of profound importance to all investors: poor risk decisions, both in investing and spending. Many of these families didn’t choose bad investments– they sized them incorrectly– and allowed their spending decisions to amplify this mistake. The Missing Billionaires book offers a simple yet powerful framework for making important lifetime financial decisions in a systematic and rational way. It's for readers with a baseline level of financial literacy, but doesn’t require a PhD. It fills the gap between personal finance books and the academic literature, bringing the valuable insights of academic finance to non-specialists. Part One builds the theory of optimal investment sizing from first principles, starting with betting on biased coins. Part Two covers lifetime financial decision-making, with emphasis on the integration of investment, saving and spending decisions. Part Three covers practical implementation details, including how to calibrate your personal level of risk-aversion, and how to estimate the expected return and risk on a broad spectrum of investments. The book is packed with case studies and anecdotes, including one about Victor’s investment with LTCM as a partner, and a bonus chapter on Liar’s Poker. The authors draw extensively on their own experiences as principals of Elm Wealth, a multi-billion-dollar wealth management practice, and prior to that on their years as arbitrage traders– Victor at Salomon Brothers and LTCM, and James at Nationsbank/CRT and Citadel. Whether you are young and building wealth, an entrepreneur invested heavily in your own business, or at a stage where your primary focus is investing and spending, The Missing Billionaires: A Guide to Better Financial Decisions is your must-have resource for thoughtful financial decision-making.
