    About this ebook

    The lasting impact of the recent financial crisis is the fear and uncertainty that it has left in the minds of many Canadians. Will they be able to retire? Will they be able to fund their kids’ educations?

    "Money Talks: Lessons from Canada’s Wealthiest" follows a group of friends as they struggle with these questions. Applying lessons learned from the richest Canadians, the friends learn, in easy to understand language, practical tips to put them on the road to financial peace of mind.

    “In this book, Sam not only distills the key rules of saving and investing into a handful of accessible chapters, he provides insights for translating those rules into successful action. The result is a practical guide to achieving financial peace of mind for beginners and experts alike.”

    --William B.P. Robson, President and CEO, C.D. Howe Institute

    “Sam says early in the book that ‘Investing is not rocket science. It is simple, but it is not easy.’ He then proceeds to take a number of complex concepts and show that they are, indeed, ‘simple.’ It is a must-read for anyone hoping to build a legacy for the future. Even industry professionals will learn a great deal from Sam’s dramatic insights.”

    --James B. Love, Q.C., CEO, Legacy Private Trust

    “Sam’s book addresses head-on the uncertainty and volatility in today’s markets and outlines the key steps needed to secure your financial future. A fun read and a terrific resource.”

    --Kathryn From, Founder and CEO, Bravado Designs

    “An excellent discussion on managing risk appropriately in an investment portfolio. A must-read for anyone who lost money during the financial crisis.”

    --Dr. Ron Dembo, Founder and CEO, Zerofootprint and Algorithmics
