Beyond Traditional Financial Wisdom: A New Path to True Wealth
Imagine being told that your entire approach to building wealth is fundamentally broken. That's precisely the wake-up call at the heart of "The Last Safe Investment." The conventional financial wisdom we've all heard-save 10-15% of income, cut small luxuries, invest in index funds for that magical 7% return, buy a home as your wealth-building foundation-has failed spectacularly. For those who diligently followed this advice over the past fifteen years, the promised nest egg never materialized. The S&P 500 has risen just 1.9% above inflation annually-far below the promised 7%-while home values have barely beaten inflation in most markets. Meanwhile, student debt has ballooned to $1.7 trillion with 30% of loans now delinquent or in default. Both the "education path" and "property path" to wealth have left millions financially vulnerable despite playing by the rules.
