James_Mourgos | Dec 22, 2016 |   Rules of Money is not a get-rich-quick book but a series of short one-page chapters with some advice on how to build wealth slowly and when you get it, how to keep it. It's tough to write a review of a book that is broken down into so many bits & pieces, but I will point out a few bits that really impressed me. First is the concept of shopping! Everyone loves to shop. But it may not be the best to go for the cheapest. Templar's book emphasizes Value over Price. Something may be cheap (his bag of tee-shirts for five dollars for example) but you end up throwing away cheap items that break, tear or become rags. While his wife (always the smarter of the couple) buys a tee-shirt that may be expensive, but with years of wear you actually save money. He got a used Mercedes that he has been driving for years (known for its mechanical superiority) as compared to his friends who go through cars and many repair bills, despite the original cheaper sticker price. Food for thought. Another is the concept of investing. What kind of investor are you? How patient? And related to that was the idea of paying for your retirement through your pension and 401K, the idea of retirement being difficult for younger people who don't see themselves not working and so spend like crazy. Change of attitude. And, knowing where you are at, financially, before you can even begin to figure out the future wealth of yourself and family. This step is so important it is in the front of the book! You'd be surprised how many people really have no clue as to their net worth and continue in bad spending habits, avoiding taxes (which he strongly admonishes against) and having a mind set that leads to the poor house. 107 bite-sized chapters with more advice than Mom and more common sense than, well, your Mom! Scary! Bottom Line: Great little book; not perfect but really makes a point that with hard work and an ethical, positive outlook you too can make enough common sense decisions to do well financially. Maybe you will never be a Bill Gates or Donald Trump, but you can change your mind about your situation. Recommended.
