Book Description
From bestselling author of The $100 Startup and Side Hustle comes Chris Guillebeau's engaging story about the power you have to create your own financial destiny. Like financial classics The Latte Factor and The Richest Man in Babylon, The Money Tree uses a compelling story with captivating characters to share its core insight: you are never at the mercy of fortune as long as you have an appetite for hard work and a willingness to step outside your comfort zone. Jake Aarons is in trouble. He's being evicted from his apartment in less than 30 days, the bill for his $50,000 in overdue student loans is almost due, and the digital marketing agency he works at just implemented a new military-style grading system that might cost him his job. To top it off, Jake's new relationship with Maya was going so well... but with everything else falling down around him, he might lose her, too. In search of answers, Jake reluctantly attends a weekly group meeting at the invitation of a coworker. Everyone in the group is trying to create a lucrative side hustle with one key requirement: they can only spend up to $500 before earning a profit. Over the course of several weeks, Jake undertakes a series of challenges, first learning how to make $1,000 in a single weekend, and ultimately how to discover the untapped skills he needs to take control of his finances--and his life.

The Magic Money Tree and Other Economic Tales
Author: Lorenzo Forni
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781788213646
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This lively and provocative look at the tension between economics and politics examines why so many mistakes in economic policy-making are made for political reasons and ignore the economic truths. Using short-term economic gains to ensure electoral success, argues Lorenzo Forni, inevitably spells macroeconomic disaster. Using the state budget, trade policy and monetary policy to prop up labour markets and the wider economy in order to boost voter approval ratings, while ignoring budget constraints can only result in longer recessions and economic downturns. Which then can incur the painful austerity measures needed to bring the economy back into balance. Forni looks at many unsustainable economic policies that have been implemented in parts of the world when the economic realities - there is no magic money tree! - would recommend a different and more prudent economic course.

Book Description
OUR GLOBAL ECONOMIC SYSTEM, WHICH FOR MANY YEARS HAS SERVED US WELL, IS UNDER GREAT STRESS. WE LIVE AS IF RESOURCES ARE LIMITLESS, THE CLIMATE IS CONSTANT, AND THE ECONOMY WILL HAVE ETERNAL GROWTH.

Where the Money Tree Grows is a book that gives you practical guidance on how you can use your savings to effectively contribute to a more sustainable world while making profitable investments. You'll get concrete advice on how to save sustainably, and how you can find investment opportunities linked to the greatest challenge of our time. Sasja Beslik is Managing Director, Head of Sustainable Finance Development at J. Safra Sarasin and has more than 20 years of experience in the banking industry.

Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 233
Book Description
It is time for the people to unleash a banking revolution. Every owner of an SME and those thinking of starting a business should read this book and then act to support the kind of banking that is long overdue. The kind of banking described by Craig Iley. Every banker should read this book and pay heed to what Craig Iley describes. Let the revolution begin. Without Banks the world we know today would not exist but… Have you ever thought the odds were stacked against you and never really understood how? Have you ever considered why your bank gets richer but your business gets poorer? Have you ever wondered if there was a better, fairer way? If we want social equality, we need economic equality. If we want economic equality, we have to change the financial system. If we want to change the system then we have to understand it… then we have to act. You may not think that you can do this but I can assure you that is not true. You have far more power than you may believe. The only question you really need to answer is, do you want to stick with what we have or… Do you want to start shaking the money tree and build something fit for the 21st Century? A little revolution now and then can be a healthy thing. It has never been more important for us all to understand what banks are, how they work and why our banking system is not fit for purpose. Craig Iley has been involved in the development of two new challenger banks and ‘SHAKING THE MONEY TREE’ explains how we can develop a new financial covenant, to regain control of our economic destiny.
