The Money Riddle: Why Money Enriches a Few, Impoverishes Most, and Rules All

This is not your typical book on money, personal finance or self-improvement.

It is different by design. For while money may make the “world go around,” knowing what money really is will truly make your “head spin.”

When you understand “money”—from how it evolved to what it is today—the answers to some of life’s biggest questions will be revealed.

For instance:

• Why do the rich get richer and the poor get poorer?

• Why are prices for literally everything continually rising?

• Why do the “experts” fear deflation (i.e., lower prices)?

• Why are taxes, deficits and government debt only going in one direction—up?

• Why do you feel like a gerbil on a treadmill—never able to get ahead financially, and always under the burden of more debt?

• Why does the economy repeatedly jump from one financial crisis to the next?

• When will the Cubs finally win a World Series? (Sorry, no answer forthcoming for that one—just making sure you are paying attention!)

Incredibly (note the sarcasm here), money is not a subject taught on college campuses.

Nor is it something politicians or bankers care to discuss—other than to proclaim that they could use more of it! The truth is, they have a strong motivation for keeping you “in the dark.”

That is about to change!

Utilizing approachable, easy-to-digest examples—and mixing in a little bit of humor—a subject that most pundits consider too difficult to comprehend (money!) is explained in a way that anyone can understand.

Solving the great riddle that is money will empower you to take control of your life and personal finances. You will understand how the proverbial “rich dad” (or mom) increases his or her wealth while the “poor dad” struggles.

In addition, your perspective on bankers, ALL politicians and even world events will never be the same.

Buckle up—the ride could get a bit bumpy!
