Anyone follow the advice of "The Wealthy Barber" ? 2007-02-21 07:08:24
I have found David Chilton's "The Wealthy Barber" very useful, and I re-read it regularly to make sure I am keeping up financially.
The first time I read it, the chapter on Wills, Life Insurance, and Responsibility had the most impact. It made me realize that I had neglected having the necessary documents. I have since drawn up a will, POAs, and a living will.
Each successive time I've worked through it, I've adjusted different areas--savings rate, vigilance of investment costs, enlisting professional financial advice, budget for wants as well as for needs--the list goes on.
So, yes, it's worked out really well for me, and I recommend not trying to perfect each chapter as you go along. Instead, work your way through the book on regular intervals, improving on the one or two areas that are most lacking, while keeping the other areas in decent working order. That allows you to make progress without feeling overwhelmed--as well as adjust for changes in your life (marriage, homeownership, etc) that affect your financial well-being.
Here's a terrific idea to begin the book. It's a quote but perhaps it will give you an idea. Financial books can be tough to get through, but in any book report what you are doing is to say what happened and what you think of it. So, describe some of the ideas and plans that Chilton suggests in this book and then comment if they are realistic and practical, or not.
"The Wealthy Barber is the book for the person who wants to live his or her financial life with simplicity, integrity, and a quiet pursuit of slow wealth acquisition. The format of the book is to use a fictional setting--an advice-giving barber who shows middle-class people how to maximize what they have without undue stress or bother. The author's simple mission is to show the reader that one need not be a pinball wizard in the stock market to rack up a few points towards wealth and an easy retirement. "
