About this listen

 Everyone needs to take charge of their financial affairs and this audiobook tells you how.

It is time to get your money working for you. HOW TO OWN THE WORLD explains why you can, and must, learn about investment, and highlights the significant advantages you have over many finance professionals. This is both a personal finance book and a personal development book; by safeguarding your future wealth you are safeguarding your long-term health and happiness.

Successful investment can turn hundreds into millions over time thanks to the power of compound interest, something Einstein described as "The Eighth Wonder of the World".

There has never been a greater need for you to take charge of your financial affairs. Fortunately the tools available have never been more powerful or inexpensive. HOW TO OWN THE WORLD explains why this is, and what you can do to make the most of your money.

The book has some very good basic information with a focus on the UK context. The author is less non-partisan than he represents himself as and some of his views should be taken with a grain of salt (as with all books in this class). I’m worried that readers could come away very bullish on gold as an investment vehicle rather than as a currency independent hedge against inflation.

The info on reported vs actual inflation was interesting but I’d recommend actually reading your reserve bank reports on how they calculate these numbers (reserve bank of Australia does this quite well) as the views presented in the book are a little bias towards the authors world view.

Read this book but don’t build your view of world finance off this alone.

Basic but not bad
