The Ultimate Guide to Money
Publisher: Puffin
Emmanuel Asuquo didn’t learn anything about money at school, but when he started working part time as a cashier in a bank, he decided that he was going to study to become a financial advisor. At age 22, he was the youngest financial advisor in the UK, and he spent the next ten years helping people make the most of their money.
However, after some time helping rich people get richer, Eman decided that he wanted to work with people who didn‘t necessarily understand money that well. This book is a fabulous introduction to managing money for young people, providing the education around finances and money that so many young people still lack.
Taking readers on a fun journey to make £1,000,000 from £1, Eman educates us on what money and economies are and shares how we can best make money, save it, invest it and increase it, using different methods from starting a business; using savings accounts, ISAs, and Premium Bonds; investing in property, and much more.
The book is set up as a kind of game, with each chapter taking the reader on the next step of the investment ladder, giving three options at each stage that the reader can choose from to get to the next stage.
It’s a fun and educational read, full of facts and clear explanations, meaning that readers will come away with a vastly improved understanding of what to do with their money to help them prosper. Highly recommended.
