Splitting Markets
Splitting Markets is a compilation of 3 works with added essays and commentary. It is an examination of the global financial system as a whole, with the practical goal of being able to create a functional profitable investment strategy or business model. Splitting Markets is your alternative to a college degree in finance (and a lot cheaper!). By understanding the financial system as a whole, one can understand better your specialty, whether you are in mortgage lending or Credit Default Swaps. Splitting Markets dissects the global financial system bit by bit; byte by byte. Markets have changed in the past 50 years but educational material has not. That leaves Wall St. traders to engage in on-site training at their firm, often not providing a comprehensive view of the realities of the entire market. We hope that Splitting Markets is a comprehensive work that fills that gap, and that it becomes one day required reading in courses of international finance, macroeconomics, and foreign trade.

Money Biblically
What if the Church misunderstood one of the greatest pillars of human society?For generations, believers have been taught to fear wealth, avoid influence, or equate lack with holiness.

The Gas Troika on the European Gas Market
The Gas Troika on the European Gas Market, Volume 2 explores the ever-growing interest in European countries in consuming natural gas and liquefied natural gas (LNG) as the beginning of a significant shift towards more environment-friendly energy resources. The book studies the national and inter-regional contexts concerning increasing import volumes of the European gas market (EGM) from Russia, Qatar, and Iran through the Gas-Troika Organization (GTO) between 2016 and 2022. While the wider energy policies of GTO members in the EGM are discussed, the more specific questions the contributions to this edited volume delve into are: How do the GTO members develop their interests and energy policies in the European environment?How do the common interests and policies of the GTO members explain the framework of the organization in the EGM?How is this organization perceived and assessed as a semi-coherent regional entity?In studying these questions, the book applies a theoretical framework incorporating social structuration as a new approach. This second volume on the GTO places its arguments in the context of the Ukrainian conflict and the consequent shift in Russia's long-standing influence in European energy affairs and its position in the global energy hierarchy; economic sanctions imposed on Iran by United States and the European Union and growing political tensions between the parties; and Qatar's strategic actions, including maintaining and expanding LNG production capacity.

Real Estate Investing
Real Estate Investing: A Beginner's Guide to Rental Income and Long-Term Wealth presents an introductory overview of how real estate can be used to generate returns through rent, appreciation, or a combination of both, with attention to the practical decisions that shape outcomes. It outlines core concepts such as property types (residential, commercial, industrial), active versus passive investing, and common limitations and risks that affect real estate transactions and ongoing ownership. The book is written for first-time and early-stage investors who want a structured starting point before committing capital, including readers evaluating rental properties and those comparing real estate with other investment options. It uses a practical, step-by-step approach rather than a narrative format, focusing on planning, decision-making, and basic operating considerations. Topics include essential terminology (REITs, leverage, diversification, partnerships, and related concepts), a staged investment procedure from clarifying funds availability and investment motives to selecting a target market and criteria, and an introduction to financing and capital management. It also covers property selection methods, ways to improve property returns through cost control and operational choices, and pre-investment checks such as profitability, liquidity, tax considerations, and fraud awareness.

The Wrong Kind of Expert
Most investment advice comes from the wrong kind of expert.Financial advisers, finance professors, accountants, and bank managers all have strong opinions about how you should invest in stocks. They'll tell you to diversify broadly, buy index funds, focus on the long term, and trust the process.There's just one problem: most of them have never successfully invested their own money in individual stocks. Their advice reflects their professional training and regulatory constraints-not what actually works in the real world.What if you approached stock investing differently?After selling my accounting software business in 2013, I became a full-time investor by necessity.I immersed myself in studying the methods of the world's greatest investors-Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger, Peter Lynch, and others who had actually built fortunes through stock investing. I combined their wisdom with my own business experience to develop a practical approach that made sense in the real world.The result? Average annual returns of over 35% since 2013.This is the approach I share in The Wrong Kind of Expert.In this book, you'll discover: Why conventional wisdom about diversification and index funds often leads to mediocre returnsHow to evaluate stocks the way successful business owners evaluate businesses-by understanding what actually creates valueThe lessons from history's most successful investors, and how to apply them todayWhy most professional investors underperform the market, and what you can do differentlyHow to avoid the psychological traps and emotional mistakes that destroy returnsThe critical difference between price and value, and why this distinction is essentialReal-world examples of investment decisions and what they reveal about effective investingThis isn't academic theory. It's practical guidance from someone who's done it.I don't manage other people's money. I don't sell financial products. I don't earn commissions on trades. I have nothing to sell you except the information in this book-the same approach that's built substantial wealth for me over the past decade.The advice in these pages is fundamentally different from what you'll hear from financial professionals. I learned from investors who actually made money, not from textbooks written by academics. I think about stocks as a business owner, not as a finance professional calculating risk metrics.Business owners think about value, growth, competitive advantages, and long-term prospects. Financial professionals think about asset allocation, risk-adjusted returns, and portfolio optimization.One of these approaches consistently makes money. The other keeps financial professionals employed.Who this book is for: This book is for intelligent people who want to take control of their investments but are tired of advice that seems designed to benefit everyone except the investor. It's not a get-rich-quick scheme. It's a thoughtful, common-sense approach to building wealth through stock investing-the kind of approach that works when your own money is at stake.If you're ready to think like a business owner and learn from investors who actually succeeded, this book will show you how.
