I am the author of two best selling books - Millionaire Teacher and Millionaire Expat.
I used to be a high school teacher. Now, I travel the world with my wife, Pele, teaching others to achieve financial independence.
When I was in my late 30s, I had built a one million dollar investment portfolio – on a high school teacher’s salary.
I was careful with my spending. And I invested my money carefully in the stock market.
To share what I had learned, in 2011, I wrote my first book, Millionaire Teacher: The Nine Rules of Wealth You Should Have Learned in School.
Millionaire Teacher became an international best seller and has been translated into many languages.
The good news is, you don’t have to follow the stock market or read the dull financial pages of The Wall Street Journal.
The investment strategies I share take less than one hour a year.
Then after writing Millionaire Teacher, I realized there was a different need.
Most of the world’s 200 million expats float in stormy seas. Few can contribute to their home country social programs.
They’re often forced to fend for themselves when they retire.
In 2015 I wrote a book that was The Global Expatriate’s Guide To Investing. When read with Millionaire Teacher, it was the world’s only books showing expats how to build wealth overseas with index funds.
It also was a success. The second edition was updated and re-titled as: Millionaire Expat: How to build Wealth Living Overseas.
But Millionaire Expat a guide for everyone, no matter where you are from. Warren Buffett says you should buy index funds and Nobel prize winners agree.
But dangers lurk. Financial advisors overseas can be as hungry as sharks. They don’t play by the same set of rules. They would rather earn whopping commissions than follow solid financial principles.
Millionaire Expat shows how to avoid these sharks in suits.
It explains how to find an honest financial advisor: one that invests with index funds instead of commission paying windfalls.
