Description

At age 24 Mark was laid off, with just a few thousand dollars in savings. Instead of looking for a new job, he sat down in his basement and began investing his time and money differently. Over the next ten years he multiplied his savings a thousand fold into a multi­million­ dollar portfolio of businesses and other investments.

Along the way he reflected on what was working and why, and made notes that became his personal guide to investment decisions. Investing With Purpose is that guide, expanded for a broad audience of people who aspire to a bigger future.

Investing With Purpose ​explains and illustrates investing rules like:

  • Link every investment decision to a clear and intentional vision of the long­-term future you want to create.
  • Use all your resources. Investing existed long before the invention of money, and applies to your most precious resource ­ time.
  • Avoid the emotional pitfalls that lead smart investors to bad decisions.
  • Face fear and take risks to capitalize on your best opportunities.
  • Develop and apply your unique investment advantages – the only reliable path to superior returns.

Whether your goal is to get rich, improve the neighborhood, or save the rainforest, the advice in this book will help you get there.
