The $1K Investor: Simple, Smart Steps to Start Investing with $1K or Less

by Debbie Sassen

Simple, smart investing is the number one way to achieve long-term financial success. And fortunately, you don't need to be a rocket scientist or have a lot of money to get going.

But the problem is that most people were never educated on how to properly understand and manage their money. They think it's complex and you need to be good with math to manage money on your own.

So, they push it off.

Taking care of your finances and building a cushion for your future self rarely seem to make it to the top of the to-do list. Especially when there are kids to care for, home repairs, and other bills to pay.

And to be honest, I was no different - even though I was working on Wall Street and co-managing portfolios worth several billion dollars.

In fact, I was so busy working and raising a family that when I finally did get started investing, I hired investment managers who churned my account (bought and sold securities excessively to generate fees). When I finally wisened up to what was going on and took back control of my money, I followed a hot tip that led to a quick and painful financial loss! Ouch!

Nobody needs to figure out investing the hard way! I want to short cut the learning curve for you.

Investing doesn't need to be complicated and you don't need a ton of money to get started. If you can start with a thousand dollars or more, that's wonderful. If you commit to investing just a few dollars a week that's good too. The important step is to get started! The rest will fall into place over time.

The $1K Investor: Simple, Smart Steps to Start Investing with a $1K or Less, helps smart women and men like you to get started. By following the advice in this book, you will feel less intimidated and more confident about managing your money better. And confidence about money and wealth building will spill over into other areas of their lives.

Taking good care of your money is a superb act of self-care that enables you to live an empowered and confident life, free of financial stress. That gives you more time, energy and money to do what you love and to make a positive change in the world.

Once you read this book, you will be more confident, knowledgeable and well-informed when it comes to making smart money decisions!

In this book you will discover:


Why investing is much simpler than you think. How you can get started with $1000 or even less! The difference between saving and investing. What effect your upbringing has on your money habits. Risk management, diversification, and much much more!! Are you ready to dive in?
