  • The Dragon's Egg

    David A. Wells

    eBook (Alexander Publishing, Aug. 31, 2015)
    Seventy-five years ago, the dragons fell from the sky. We thought they were just meteorites—six terrifying explosions rang the world like a bell. When the dust settled, we went on with our lives as though nothing had happened.More than a decade later, five of the eggs hatched. The dragons that emerged were small and weak. They kept to the shadows, working in secret to persuade people to do their bidding, offering magic as payment and reward. Years passed … and still we didn’t notice the evil growing in our midst.The war began suddenly. Survivors called it the ‘apocalypse’—nine billion people killed in an afternoon.Then the dragons revealed themselves, burning huge swaths of what remained, taunting and mocking and murdering the survivors.Four leaders arose: The Wizard, the Dragon Rider, the Monk, and the Dragon Slayer. Allied with the rebel dragon, they waged war for years until they too were defeated, scattered, or killed.When the war ended, only one dragon remained … but that single dragon was enough to plunge the world into tyranny.The Dragon's Egg is the first book in the post-apocalyptic, epic fantasy series--The Dragonfall Trilogy.

    Discover the secrets of personal finance in this amazing audiobook! Inside you will find a detailed description of the different methods to save, invest, and manage your money. Somebody once said that failing to plan is planning to fail. And failing to manage is managing to fail. Just like an untended garden, many important areas of our lives can be very messy, to say the least, without good active management. One of those areas is personal finance. We all have needs and wants, which all require money. Personal finance is the ongoing activity of managing our money so that we can ensure that all our needs - both current and future ones - are met along with as much of our wants as possible. Most people get by meeting their current needs and leave the future ones to fate. We shouldn't do that. We should prepare for them while we still have time. Personal finance management can go a long way in helping us prepare to meet our future needs, like retirement or our children's college education. In this audiobook, you will learn about several of the key building blocks of personal finance; cash flow management, saving and investing. I will show you how to achieve positive cash flows as a means to meet both current and future needs. You will learn how to properly save and ways in which to beat inflation through properly investing your money. Finally, you will learn how to properly consider investments based on your objectives, risk tolerance, average expected rates of return, average inflation rate, and timeframe. For this, I will teach you to carefully and wisely evaluate you investment alternatives. Actively managing your personal finances will enable you to meet your needs, have some for wants, help others, and provide a greater degree of peace of mind. This audiobook was written in a way that can be easily understood using examples from everyday living and is a very good springboard for learning more advanced personal finance to topics. Here is a preview of what you will learn: Tools to easily build a zero sum budget How to increase your income by having clear financial goals The ins and outs of building wealth through compounding How to understand your financial goals in the context of risk/reward investing How to choose the right mix of bonds, stocks, and real estate, given your risk profile

  • Budgeting: The Fundamental Guide for Beginners

    Craig Santoro, Diane Busch, Alex Publishing

    Audible Audiobook (Alex Publishing, June 19, 2017)
    Discover the secrets of how to budget in this amazing book! Inside you will find a detailed description of the different methods to budget and manage your money. Somebody once said that failing to plan is planning to fail. And failing to manage is managing to fail. Just like an untended garden, many important areas of our lives can be very messy to say the least without good active management. One of those areas is personal finance. Meeting responsibilities on a daily basis while also trying to save for your future can seem impossible. Sometimes just meeting your minimum financial obligations can be a nightmare. There are things you can do to make it manageable. The biggest problem that most people face is that they simply don't know how to budget. You may try to set money aside for bills and other expenses. You may watch your bank balances closely to make sure you don't overdraft. Often this is not enough. Planning is necessary. Today budgeting is taught in high school. Most schools offer a financial management class that is required for graduation. This means that the most recent generations will be armed with the knowledge they need to manage their finances. For those who are older, budgeting is not something that was taught. It was something you learned by trial and error, if at all. This lack of education and skills has led to a staggering number of Americans living from paycheck to paycheck, with no idea how to bring themselves out of the rut. This book is aimed toward those who do not have experience or knowledge of budgeting. It will take you through three methods of budgeting and the steps necessary to make them work. By the end of this book you should be prepared to begin budgeting and achieve a long awaited financial stability.
