Protect Your Wealth from the Ravages of Inflation is for people who have financial assets to protect in an unpredictable, inflationary environment. Maybe you have tried traditional financial advice, financial planning, and passive investment management techniques and you're still losing ground. Maybe you're worried that by the time you need to use it, your retirement fund will be worth less than your total contributions. Maybe you believe that high inflation will significantly decrease your standard of living in the future. Maybe all of these issues apply to you. Don't despair; help is at hand. Protect Your Wealth from the Ravages of Inflation is a concise, no-nonsense, straightforward guide that will help you to do three things: 1. Ensure that your emergency fund will still have some purchasing power when you need it. Emergency funds sitting in checking accounts, or near-cash investments, will just be eaten away by inflation. There is a better way to give you access to the cash you need when you need it. This book shows you how. 2. Insulate you from significant changes in the strength of your home currency. If all your income and expenses are in a single currency like the U.S. dollar, you run a significant risk that your home-country currency will lose value. Currency risk in your income-purchasing power and working capital is often overlooked until it's too late to do anything about it. This book deals with this issue and gives you easy-to-follow advice to protect the value of your money. 3. Generate a better risk-adjusted return in your investment accounts. Buying a basket of stocks and mutual funds and then performing the traditional “annual rebalancing of a diversified portfolio” just doesn't generate the returns most people require from their investments. This book shows you simple, powerful, and sophisticated techniques you can use to manage your investment accounts more effectively—and without making it a full-time job. Protect Your Wealth from the Ravages of Inflation can't guarantee that you will meet your financial goals, but it can guarantee that your odds of success will be significantly increased if you follow its advice. The book: Explains why traditional investing methods virtually guarantee a negative rate of return in real terms. Illustrates the pernicious effect of inflation on an average investor's portfolio—and why an inflationary period may be in the offing. Provides a three-step process to withstand emergencies, protect your liquid assets, and produce a superior risk-adjusted return on a stock portfolio compared with conventional investing methods.

If you are already trading real money, having great success, I encourage you to keep it going this book is going to be very elementary for you. This book is the bible for brand new investors and traders who need to start somewhere. This is the place! What you will learn in this book will fast track your knowledge of what you need to know to get started learning. You can perhaps go from knowing 0 to trading and making real money in the live markets in as little as 30 days to a couple of months if you do what it says in this book. This time frame is not etched in stone and may well take you less or more time depending on how fast you grasp the basic principles of this book and how fast you can employ them in a live market environment with real money. If you would like to learn to trade and invest in the markets (any markets) and trade and invest in them the right way from the very start of your trading and investing education/career then I highly recommend you pay attention and do what it says in this book. If you are a brand new beginner you should read every single page in this book. Multiple times if need be. This book is meant to expedite your learning curve which can sometimes be long and costly. Sure you can Google this or that information however it would take you many years to learn what I am going to tell you in this book before you could invest any of your hard earned real money in the live markets and have a chance making real money. This first book in the series is meant to give you the basic information you need to make a decision as to whether to get into this business or not. You can screw around and waste a lot of training and education time on things that won't help you to make money in the live market or you can learn to trade by focusing on the reality of how markets work and how money is really made and lost in markets. This means quantifying real demand and supply in a market and then buying low and selling high, just like you do in everyday in every other part of life, buying at wholesale and selling at retail. The live market is no different. Do you want to make money right away in the live market or waste time and perhaps A LOT OF MONEY on doing things the wrong way from the start the cost of which can be steep and be an account killer and no one wants that right? I have written this book in a way I feel the progression of information should be learned to be able to go into the live markets with confidence and no fear.

By the time you are finished with this book you should have learned the following: What money management is and why you need to learn it first. Why you need to master your own psychology to work in the live market. Why you must always work with a rule based plan. You will have learned to quantify and monetize fear. Read this book, study hard, go in the market and get your money!
