Invest in Debt
By Jimmy Napier
“Jimmy Napier provides financial knowledge that should be compulsory in every American high school.
The basic understanding of how to use a calculator and apply it to the time value of money should be understood by every adult. He also teaches basic negotiation skills for buying and selling mortgage and other debt instruments, clearly showing you how to discount them or correctly value them for your best interests.
And, as the book states, you can call Jimmy if you have any questions and he will pick up the phone. Jimmy is a great guy, well known by many he has taught and is known as a master negotiator. This is a small but essential book that you’ll want to have in your library. You’ll be buying extra books as gifts for your adult children and your closest friends.
You will need to use the HP10BII calculator (others will work but Jimmy uses the HP10bII) to work through the math but this is relatively easy if you outline your paper as he suggests and go through each example. The knowledge in this little book is great stuff. Wish I had bought this one twenty years ago.”
