Own Your Future: One Woman's Story of Immigration and Financial Freedom

The term "wealth management" doesn't only apply to wealthy people.
You don't have to be wealthy to start managing wealth; you can start growing it now from right where you stand. Too many people don't understand the roles and responsibilities of financial advisors or financial planners and therefore fail to take advantage of opportunities to grow their wealth.
Some financial advice books are too complicated, and others are a little too basic, but this book aims to give you the tools and education to think properly about your money, to identify who should be on your financial team, and to offer insights into what each of them should deliver.
Wealth management can be complicated, but it doesn't have to be. Echo Huang is a rare find when it comes to wealth management. She advocates for more women to get into the wealth management industry as well as for people to start financial planning at much younger ages. In her book, you'll discover: - How to simplify financial planning - How to create your financial independence day - 5 Steps to bullet proof your investment portfolio - How to create a money management dream team - Tax strategies, estate planning, long term care and charitable giving strategies that generate more wealth for you - What things to think about if you are an immigrant managing your portfolio in the U.S.
Own Your Future is the story of how a poor immigrant came to live the American dream and how you can too. It's a story of dreams manifested as a result of the guidance offered by the author's seven core principles: daring to dream, being adaptable, respecting education, setting goals, utilizing smart and deliberate planning to achieve success, seizing opportunities when they arise, and benefiting from the wisdom of others.
Based on the author's twenty-five years of experience in the trenches, not just of investment management but also of private and public accounting, this book educates the reader about wealth management and offers useful tools that can be used to make our financial lives more organized.
Echo Huang pulls back the curtain on the wealth management profession as a whole and shows you how to make it work for you, as well as whom and what to trust, who should be on your team, and how they should be working together in a holistic way to help you reach your financial independence day.
