This is the only money guide you'll ever need

That's a bold claim, given there are already thousands of finance books on the shelves.

So what makes this one different?

Well, you won't be overwhelmed with a bunch of 'tips' … or a strict budget (that you won't follow).

You'll get a step-by-step formula: open this account, then do this; call this person, and say this; invest money here, and not there. All with a glass of wine in your hand.

This book will show you how to create an entire financial plan that is so simple you can sketch it on the back of a serviette … and you'll be able to manage your money in 10 minutes a week.

You'll also get the skinny on:

Saving up a six-figure house deposit in 20 months

Doubling your income using the 'Trapeze Strategy'

Saving $78,173 on your mortgage and wiping out 7 years of payments

Finding a financial advisor who won't rip you off

Handing your kids (or grandkids) a $140,000 cheque on their 21st birthday

Why you don't need $1 million to retire … with the 'Donald Bradman Retirement Strategy'

Sound too good to be true? It's not.

This book is full of stories from everyday Aussies — single people, young families, empty nesters, retirees — who have applied the simple steps in this book and achieved amazing, life-changing results.

And you're next.

Ratings and reviews

Why cant i resize text to like it was in the sample?? Layout is impossible for me to read on my phone. I dont want to be zooming and scrolling every page. Refund please

Easy to understand and a good alternative to become not only financially successful, also a better person in this world. It really changes my perception about what you can do with money.

I don't usually right reviews, but for this book I'll definitely make an exception. Fantastic is given me all the confidence and knowledge I need to finely have financial freedom. Highly recommend.
