How to Grow Your Own Money: The no-nonsense guide for the Independent Investor

Nobody cares more about your money than you do. And no one delivers financial advice in a no-nonsense, straight-to-the-point style like David Meckin. The author of Naked Finance advises a new wave of financial investors—the refugees of the great Recession who, disgruntled by the reckless advice given to them by salesmen thinly disguised in financial advisors' clothing, are cutting out the middleman and investing their money themselves. In the process they're saving money by eliminating unnecessary fees.
Whether you have a large sum of money or a modest amount to allocate, taking control of your investments is not as difficult or time-consuming as some financial services companies would have you believe. But it does require a bit of practical guidance and the objective, hard-won insights of someone with a strong financial background like Meckin—himself a highly successful independent investor. How to Grow Your Own Money is an accessible guide that shows how you can get an edge on the market. It includes the four main investment opportunities available to the independent investor: savings accounts, government and corporate bonds, stocks, and real estate. You'll learn the tried and tested techniques you'll need to build the skills, confidence, and know-how to grow and maximize your returns. You'll learn Meckin's tried and tested Winning Six approach: a step-by-step methodology that can be applied to any investment opportunity.
