About the Book
Everyone wants to be financially literate and, ultimately, financially independent. What better way to become financially literate than to use the mindset of Warren Buffett, likely the greatest and richest investor who ever lived? That’s the premise of our book. Through his decades of writings, interviews, and speeches, Buffett has provided reams of advice, but he has never written a book on financial literacy. This book takes much of that material and rearranges it in a way to make you financially literate and puts you on the path to becoming financially independent through 100 easy to follow tips. It may be the next best thing to having Buffett on speed dial!
