Practical, hands-on straight talk from a 22-year veteran entrepreneur. Insight and wisdom on building your business to invest in your future.

The personal finance model we all have been taught of putting money into 401k plans and borrowing from banks is officially broke. Today 95 percent of Americans die without any real wealth because along the way banks, Wall Street, Uncle Sam, and asset depreciation take almost all of our money. The Perpetual Wealth System will show you how to reverse all of this and create guaranteed, systematic, tax-free, and generational wealth.

Explains the nuts and bolts of the financial system: How are the big deals made? What radical changes will the Euro bring about? Which are the institutions that really matter? And what causes the pound to rise or interest rates to fall?

By enabling the storage and transfer of purchasing power, money facilitates economic transactions and coordinates economic activity. But what is money? How is it generated? Distributed? How does money acquire value and that value change? How does money impact the economy, society? This book explores money as a system of "tokens" that represent the purchasing power of individual agents. It looks at how money developed from debt/credit relationships, barter and coins into a system of gold-backed currencies and bank credit and on to the present system of fiat money, bank credit, near-money and, more recently, digital currencies. The author successively examines how the money circuit has changed over the last 50 years, a period of stagnant wages, increased household borrowing and growing economic complexity, and argues for a new theory of economies as complex systems, coordinated by a banking and financial system. Money: What It Is, How It’s Created, Who Gets It and Why It Matters will be of interest to students of economics and finance theory and anyone wanting a more complete understanding of monetary theory, economics, money and banking.
