About this title

From the Author:

To date, I've spent almost two decades working in finance. I've spent a large proportion of this time teaching others - what I've learnt and what I continue to learn.

Early on, I found that learning finance was akin to learning a language. One of my own finance teachers told me - "It's not the numbers, it's the English you'll find hard!" and my own experience proves that this is certainly true.

One of the biggest barriers to understanding finance - is understanding financial terminology. Accountants will often use several names for the same thing! Where possible I've tried to give alternative explanations when introducing a financial term. The jargon buster should also help you get to grips with some key financial terminology.

In this book I've picked fifty secrets that will help you get grips with finance basics. I've divided the secrets into seven chapter headings which are seven crucial things every business person should do.
