Heya! It's Nik with The 4 Minute Read. This is the last edition of Money March. Naturally, I brought something special: a summary of The 4 Minute Millionaire, my very own book about money.
Money is the most popular topic on Four Minute Books. As such, I decided to make my own first book a collection of the very best lessons from the very best finance books — sorted in order of when you might need them in your journey towards financial independence. The result is a set of 44 timeless lessons about saving, earning, and investing, arranged in 5 sections, packed with practical insights and daily action items. I'm extremely proud of the book, and I'm happy that it has sold around 2,000 copies so far. Enjoy!
"At the end of the day, all change is in your hands. Whether you want to be rich, get fit, or find love, no one can do the work but you. What you can and should do to succeed, however, is take all the help you can get."
— Niklas Göke
The Big 3 From the Book
1. Take pride in starting, even if you can only start small.
2. Instead of avoiding risk and thus also avoiding wealth, you should manage it.
3. There are 7 new asset classes that make it easy to get excited about investing.
Every day, millions of people sacrifice their own dreams because the world has duped them into living someone else's. For years, Glennon Doyle was one of those people — until she decided to follow her gut and step into her true self.
Doyle's journey was far from easy. How do you deal with bulimia and excessive drinking? How do you ask your husband for a divorce? How can you tell your 3 kids you are now dating a woman? It took Doyle these and other hard questions, along with plenty of sacrifice, to arrive at a place where she is fully content and happy with herself and her life — but because she dared to ask and answer them, she is now an inspiration to millions.
If you feel like you're stuck in someone else's life and want to finally live your own, do not miss this video.
Book of the Week: The 4 Minute Millionaire
The best argument I can make for why you should buy a copy of The 4 Minute Millionaire is that, for as little as $4 for the ebook, you can change your financial future forever.
The second-best argument is that years of experience, blood, sweat, and tears went into it, and you'd be supporting me and Four Minute Books in the most direct way possible by buying this book.
The third-best argument is that this book is like The Daily Stoic* for financial freedom. It's a collection of 44 lessons to help you move towards financial independence in just 4 minutes a day.
I took the best ideas from the best finance books, many of which I personally summarized on Four Minute Books over the years, and then filtered, organized, and made them actionable so you can make meaningful progress in tiny steps.
Whether you want to build a saving habit, pay off debt, or invest like the pros — if you're ready to look at money from a new perspective and build long-term wealth, this book is for you.
You can buy it directly from me(ebook only) or on Amazon (Kindle, paperback, hardcover). Thank you for your support, and I hope the book will make a positive difference for your life and your bank account!
This is an emotional one for me. I wrote the summary of this boiniok the day after my uncle died, aged 52, in his sleep. I found comfort in the Dalai Lama's calm, welcoming, rational approach to happiness and spirituality, and I think you will too. A wonderful book full of valuable lessons from a magnanimous leader.
