Build Wealth from Zero

Someone with little or no savings who now keeps a gap between income and spending, owns assets rather than status, earns from knowledge that is theirs, and plays a long game.

Twelve Stations, one a day, from five books: why wealth is mostly invisible, assets before liabilities, the quiet accumulators, the simple path of index investing, specific knowledge, leverage that needs no permission, long-term games, a definite aim and a peer group, wealth versus status, and money that lets you say no. It ends with a one-page wealth plan.

The BookYol LetterTwo letters a week

For the road

The road is daily. The letter is weekly.

While you walk Build Wealth from Zero, two letters a week widen the view: a big idea on Tuesday and a small experiment on Friday, drawn from the same shelf of books.

Tuesday

The Big Idea

One idea that challenges an assumption, explained properly, with its source.

Friday

The Small Experiment

One small thing to try before Monday, so the idea becomes something you do.
