Rich Enough?

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Rich Enough? by Mary Holm is a comprehensive guide designed to help you take control of your financial destiny with ease and confidence. Through her expert knowledge and practical advice, Mary Holm reveals financial secrets that many in the financial world would rather keep hidden. This book shows that laid-back investing is not only simpler but can also yield greater financial rewards. It is filled with actionable steps that can make a significant difference in your financial wellbeing.

From strategies to kill off debt and curb unnecessary spending to finding the best KiwiSaver fund, Rich Enough? equips you with the tools to save effortlessly. Whether you're looking to buy a house or find happiness in renting, Holm's insights help you make informed decisions that align with your personal goals. Furthermore, the book guides you confidently towards retirement, breaking down the myth that you need to amass $1 million to retire happily.

One of the central tenets of Holm's advice is the concept of 'set and forget' investing. She explains why it's often best to establish a solid investment plan and let it grow over time without constant interference. Beyond financial strategies, Mary Holm emphasizes that an abundance of money does not necessarily equate to happiness and that finding balance is crucial for a fulfilling life.

Mary Holm isn't merely another financial writer—she's a trusted advisor who genuinely wants you to succeed. Unlike many authors in her field, she has no ulterior motives or products to push. Her sole aim is to provide you with the knowledge and tools to improve your financial situation.

Rich Enough? has received high praise from leading figures in New Zealand:

Diane Maxwell, Retirement Commissioner, says: "Mary has that rare ability to cut through the jargon to what really matters. She combines expert wisdom and real-world insights, with fantastic results!"

Sir Michael Cullen, Former Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance, remarks: "Mary Holm is in the first rank of New Zealanders offering simple and wise advice to those who want to take effective steps to secure their future financial wellbeing. This straightforward guide should help ordinary Kiwis navigate their way through the various traps they can fall into."

In summary, Rich Enough? is not just a book about wealth; it's a guide to achieving financial peace so you can get on with living your life to the fullest. Whether you're a financial novice or someone looking to solidify their financial strategies, this book offers something for everyone. Read it, apply its lessons, and watch your financial confidence—and wellbeing—soar.
