Beyond Wealth
The Road Map to a Rich Life
Gebonden Engels 2011 1e druk 9781118027615Samenvatting
Als schrijver over financiële zaken en als beleggingsadviseur, begrijpt Alexander Groen als geen ander het belang van geld. Maar in dit inzichtelijke en inspirerende nieuwe boek gaat hij verder dan de traditionele zaken van rijkdom door te onderzoeken hoe een leven van welvaart ook zinvol kan zijn en niet alleen gaat over financieel succes.
Zoals Green opmerkt, geld creëert welvaart maar dat doen karakter, geweten, houding en wijsheid ook. Alleen door deze elementen te integreren in uw dagelijks leven ervaart u wat het "het goede leven" is.
De combinatie van persoonlijke anekdotes, provocerende inzichten en tijdloze waarheden maken 'Beyond Wealth' een fascinerende verkenning van een unieke kruising van geld, persoonlijke ontwikkeling en een succesvol leven.
