The Best Kept Secret to Financial Freedom is a comprehensive approach to building wealth and achieving financial independence without relying on expensive financial advisors or risky speculation. In addition to buying Great Businesses that pay and raise their dividends annually, and reinvesting those dividends (DRIP strategy), you must do two other things to become financially independent in 10-to-15 years. Everything is explained in The Best Kept Secret to Financial Freedom. You will learn to manage your own money, avoiding costly advisors and opaque products. In addition, there are no hidden fees, commissions, or complex structures. Your only cost is the price of a book!

As DRIP investors, we are buying an income stream—dividends—that will replace our wages or self-employment income within ten-to-fifteen years. And, if retired, the dividends pay our everyday expenses and support our lifestyles without invading our principal, allowing us to pass-on generational wealth.
If you want to take control of your financial future rather than rely on systems designed to profit from their confusion, your road to prosperity is mapped out in The Best Kept Secret to Financial Freedom (Second Edition).
