Zero to Rich - by Fiona Smith (Hardcover)

About the Book

"Before becoming a full-time blogger and founder of The Millenial Money Woman, I worked in corporate America (the finance world) and had the opportunity to work alongside clients with net worths ranging from $10,000 to more than $30,000,000. Over the years, I took note of the strategies and tactics these successful people employ daily to lead rich and fulfilling lives. By rich, I don't just mean money rich--I also mean mentally rich, knowledge-rich, family-rich, and emotionally rich. In this book, I'm going to give you a step-by-step guide showing you exactly how you can get rich, starting from nothing. If you dream about financial freedom and living life on your terms--without giving up every luxury--then this is the book for you. The strategies you'll discover in this book are not for those who are lazy, unmotivated, or unreliable. It will take discipline, consistency, and hard work--and even then, success is never guaranteed. However, if you follow my steps, you will have the opportunity to move one step closer to financial freedom. Featuring hard-won wisdom from my millionaire mentor, years studying personal finance at university, and hands-on experience in corporate finance, I outline stories, strategies, informational graphics, and challenges for you to complete so that you move in the right direction"--
