The Money Plan is exactly as the title has it: a PLAN that describes specific, conservative strategies that worked to create significant wealth for the author over the last twenty-five years. The reader learns and follows in a generally safe and secure path. As Lee states, “This Plan is not the only way to accumulate and manage wealth. Other financial people have different notions that may also be successful. But I have never seen their methods clearly presented step-by-step on paper. In this respect, The Money Plan is unique.”
The Plan is drawn from Lee’s personal experience, and delivered from that perspective. “It has been nearly four decades since I first entered the workaday world and decided to accumulate enough wealth to ride out any financial storm, retire earlier than most people, and leave enough of an estate to assure some security to my future family. In that time, two things have been proven beyond any doubt. First, there are rules which make it easier to gain success and compensation. And second, you have to formulate and carry out a specific Plan based on sound reasoning and safety.”
The Money Plan covers the entire spectrum of financial behaviors and investments in a progressive, logical fashion, from savings accounts and CDs to Exchange Traded Funds. Sidebars call out tested software and Internet resources as well as particular tips.
