Finished Reading The Automatic Millionaire
Over the last four years I discovered my views on personal finance have changed. I no longer believe that you can save your way to a wealth. Sure you can save your way to retirement maybe even early retirement. But saving alone will not make you financially free. I now believe that in order to become truly financially secure you must control your finacial destiny. The current economy has highlighted the fact that as an employee your employer controls your financial destiny. Your employer can change your benefits, cut your salary, or lay you off. If you own your own business or work for yourself you really control your own financial destiny.
The Automatic Millionaire is a good book for mass market sale. It has good advice for the average person. I wish more people would follow advice this book teaches. Personally I still use many of the techniques taught in this book. But, in order to secure my family’s financial future I’m also seeking other opportunies to create cash flow.
I began programming in C++ when I was in college. Odd for a business major, but hey I am a Dork. After college I got a job as System Administrator. As a System Administrator I was in charge of web administration. My journey as a PHP web developer had begun. Since that time I have gained an in depth knowledge of CSS, Javascript, XML and MySQL. With changes and advances to technology I have also began learning AJAX. I started Blue Fire Development to do freelance work in my spare time.
