Is it truly safe to invest, and what about your non-financial resources such as time and energy? Investing is not just about money. In The First Time Investor, Bruce Walker reveals smart investment moves that you can make whether you're a 20-something millennial or a professional who is nearing retirement. It's not just a book about managing your finances - The First Time Investor is a blueprint for proactive people who want to make the most of their health, emotional well-being, and personal relationships.

In this book, you will discover:

  • The meaning of key financial terms, such as "bond", "index fund", and "diversification"
  • How to invest when you only have a small amount of money
  • Why investing in your physical health is as important as investing in stocks

Invest in your life

This book is the most amazing investing guide which is not just about making money which we believe is the key to happiness, but not happiness is the presence of everything important of your life altogether, like health, wealth, relationships, and what you are doing for your daily life. Young Ryan Sitzberger narrated it nicely for our ear to concentrate on the words entirely. Recommended.

This book is phenemonal !

Two thumbs up! Finding an investment book that actually makes sense to me is a rarity. This might actually be the first that actually helps me make money. I would recommend it to any investor, not just the neophytes. It is written in an easy-to-listen fashion, but is jam packed with information that anyone can use. This is the best book I've read all year. Buy it. Listen it. Use it.

Practical advice for the beginner

Although written for young investors who are just starting to save for retirement, anyone can benefit from the practical advice in this book. If I had had this book twenty years ago, I, no doubt, would be much closer to reaching my retirement goals.
