Did you know the typical small business owner works three to four months just to earn enough profit to pay taxes? Whether you've been in business for several decades or are breaking ground as a new entrepreneur, taxes are a significant expenditure. They must be accounted for and incorporated into your business plan from the very beginning. Failing to account for taxes when planning, budgeting, and assessing revenue goals for a business is like failing to account for the expense of your rent or mortgage.

Very few careers can offer you the freedom, flexibility, and income that day trading does. As a day trader, you can live and work anywhere in the world. You can decide when to work and when not to work. You only answer to yourself. That is the life of the successful day trader. Many people aspire to it, but very few succeed. In the audiobook, I describe the fundamentals of day trading, explain how day trading is different from other styles of trading and investment, and elaborate on important trading strategies that many traders use every day.

Since you were old enough to hold a job, you've been hoodwinked to believe that wealth can be created by blindly trusting in the uncontrollable and unpredictable markets: the housing market, the stock market, and the job market. I call this soul-sucking, dream-stealing dogma "The Slowlane" - an impotent financial gamble that dubiously promises wealth in a wheelchair. For those who don't want a lifetime subscription to "settle-for-less", there is an alternative.

A brand must be elastic enough to allow for reasonable category and product-line extensions, flexible enough to change with dynamic market conditions, consistent enough so that consumers who travel physically or virtually won’t be confused, and focused enough to provide clear differentiation from the competition.

Stay away from the audio version
Would you try another book from Richard A. Lambert and/or Kaleo Griffith?
Yes, but probably not another audio one.
Would you ever listen to anything by Richard A. Lambert again?
Very unlikely.
Any additional comments?
This book might be just fine, it seems to have some insightful information; however, it is horrible in audio form.
They give a lot of examples of financial reports and how to interpret them. Normally this would be great; but, they read the numbers in the tables row-by-row, column-by-column. Some of these tables take a couple of minutes to get through. It is very tedious and doesn't help you understand what they are talking about. I don't think anyone could absorb information like this. Would be much better if they had just said, "see the attached PDF."
This is one of the few audio-books that I just couldn't finish.

Clear, practical, tremendous value
This is one of my favorite audiobooks ever (and I've listened to hundreds). I took financial and managerial accounting classes a few years ago. This worked as a refresher and went beyond that into solid, basic finance topics, very effectively. The information is useful to me for personal finance decisions as well (such as, using discounted value of future cash flows in decision support). Rarely have I found so much useful information so well and so compactly delivered. I will listen to it many times. I hope for more content form this author.

Couldn't finish
What disappointed you about Financial Literacy for Managers?
This book is probably just fine to read. However I don't think that it lends itself well to an audiobook format.
Any additional comments?
It is pretty rare that I can't finish a book. I've listen to thousands and this is been one of the few that I abandoned early on. It's not that the book doesn't have good information; it does. It just really isn't suited to be an audiobook.

Pleasantly Surprised
What made the experience of listening to Financial Literacy for Managers the most enjoyable?
Great information, enough detail to make it valuable, and not too involved to be cumbersome and boring.
Any additional comments?
I know I will have to listen to this audio book more than once to catch all the information. You need to download the PDF file so you can follow some of the figures, unless you are able to visualize the spoken figures and financial statements, which does require some concentration while you listen. This is definitely not a casual listen, but given the subject, I would not expect it to be.

I truly enjoyed learning about Finance and the narrator was excellent however this one shortcoming was a lack of PDF to follow along although excellent examples given in this text it would be very worthwhile to have a more detail PDF associated. and I would definitely enjoy reading it again while I listened to this excellent resource.

Essential reading for managers and students
This book, while compact, is full of useful managerial information, and an essential asset for both managers and students alike. It can be referred to as a text book or reference book for the student or manager. Well done!!
