“To earn a black belt in karate, you must have discipline, focus and grit. The money manager behind The Black Belt Investor is just as inspiring as any karate fighter. It was a true pleasure for me to read this jewel of a book and rediscover its author, who preaches by example. I would highly recommend making this book available to young people, especially young women, so that they can learn early how to anticipate, plan and develop a healthy relationship with money in order to have a truly ‘rich’ life.”

The Black Belt Investor is my story about how my many years inside the world of money management combined with my study of martial arts has brought me to a deeper understanding of what it means to be wealthy. This book is my recipe for obtaining a sense of wealth, or “wealthness”, as I like to call it.
