Reader beware! This book and author may appear to be incongruities. But is it so strange that the same person should assume the role as both real estate investor and a public school teacher? To escape retirement on welfare and starting with nothing I describe how I was able to build equity of well over several million dollars while continuing to teach public school. Happily I was rewarded with the privilege of teaching children for 30 years and my classroom adventures are included within these pages. Then it is wrong to praise freedom in our free enterprise system while deploring the status of so many teachers whose classroom lives and ability to teach are ground out by the dictatorial policies of the educational bureaucracy? On the contrary I believe it is imperative that the truth be told for the good of us all. These are my memoirs.

Exploit your offshore status to build a robust investment portfolio Most of the world's 200 million expats float in stormy seas. Few can contribute to their home country social programs. They're often forced to fend for themselves when they retire. The Global Expatriate's Guide to Investing is the world's only book showing expats how to build wealth overseas with index funds. Written by bestselling author, Andrew Hallam, it's a guide for everyone, no matter where they are from. Warren Buffett says you should buy index funds. Nobel prize winners agree. But dangers lurk. Financial advisors overseas can be hungry wolves. They don't play by the same set of rules. They would rather earn whopping commissions than follow solid financial principles. The Global Expatriate's Guide To Investing shows how to avoid these jokers. It explains how to find an honest financial advisor: one that invests with index funds instead of commission paying windfalls. You don't want an advisor? Fair enough. Hallam shows three cutting edge index fund strategies. He compares costs and services of different brokerages, whether in the U.S. or offshore. And he shows every nationality how to invest in the best products for them. Some people want stability. Some want strong growth. Others want a dash of both. This book also answers the following questions: How much money do I need to retire? How much should I be saving each month? What investments will give me both strong returns, and safety? The Global Expatriate's Guide To Investing also profiles real expats and their stories. It shows the mistakes and successes that they want others to learn from. It's a humorous book. And it demonstrates how you can make the best of your hard-earned money.

The Earth Walkers is a story of the relationship of horses, humans, and planet earth. It is a simple story that over time we, as humans, have complicated. Once, all three lived in harmony, but humans viewed this as primitive, savage, or wild. And so we began to make our existence together more civilized. In our interference, we began to lose respect for our planet and all that lived upon it, including ourselves. One of the three, though, remained steadfast throughout the story. Horses, except in their physical appearance, have neither changed nor tried to change anything, just being themselves, constantly at our sides. Tracing the story of the relationship from the beginning of time, the unique bond between humans and horses is explored through different civilizations and cultures up to present day. It tracks the journey of the two species and the effect they had on earth as they walked around it. It also tells the story of how—when in times of disruption, chaos, and imbalance—earth has spoken to us, giving us signs; and horses have always been there, guiding us to a path back home. It is a path to a home on earth where all can live in harmony and at peace—a path that we will hopefully choose to walk together once again.

Hogan shows that God's way of managing money really works. Millionaire status doesn't require inheriting a bunch of money or having a high-paying job. The path to becoming a millionaire is paved with tools that you either already have or that you can learn. Take personal responsibility; practice intentionality; be goal-oriented, a hard worker; and be consistent. If you adopt this mindset, you, too, can become a millionaire. -- adapted from foreword and introduction
