    About this ebook

    Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

    Book Preview: #1 Thomas was able to retire at age 36 after investing $100 every month from the age of 16. He invested in the stock market and followed the teachings of value investing.

    #2 The author began his investing career by following the advice of a famous investor named Warren Buffet, who preached the value of fundamental analysis over technical analysis. He followed this advice and purchased a stock called Michaels Stores in 1989 at a split-adjusted price of $1. 28.

    #3 Retiring at 36 means retiring without a penny in the bank. The author retired at that age after working a corporate job, and his strategy was to avoid the name brands because store brands were just as good at a fraction of the cost.
