       — Seth Godin, bestselling author

      No funny stuff, just money stuff

      The information in this book is general in nature and for educational purposes only. It should not replace individual, independent, personal financial advice, tailored to your specific needs.

      Neither Scott Pape nor anyone associated with Barefoot Investor or the making of this book has received any kickbacks, commissions or fees — or even so much as an invite to a corporate box at the footy — for mentioning anything contained herein. We never have, and we never will.

      We are fiercely independent.

      The bottom line: you're reading the same information that I'd give to my mum, God love her.

      Scott Pape is the Barefoot Investor.

      Since 2002, he's reached millions of Australians through his email newsletter, national weekend newspaper columns, appearances on TV and radio and his bestselling books, The Barefoot Investor (2016) and The Barefoot Investor for Families (2018).

      He has worked with the heads of government, schools across the country, AFL and NRL teams, bushfire survivors, and some of the most vulnerable people in our community.

      In 2020, Scott was awarded a Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) for ‘service to the community and to financial education’.

      Scott gave up his financial services license in 2020 to become a volunteer financial counsellor.

      He lives in country Victoria with his wife, Liz, and their four children on their family farm and is often seen belting around in an old ute that doesn't need to be locked.

You've got a young wife, a little baby … and you've just lost everything you own. I'm a financial counsellor. I help people in crisis. Let me help you.’

      When I first sat down to write this book, I expected to sell a few thousand copies at best.

      (After all, who reads books these days?)

      So, I decided to write it the same way I'd talk to a mate if we were at a pub:

      I sketched out my simple ‘bucket’ strategy … the exact bank accounts I used … even the pillow I bought that I couldn't shut up about!

      Little did I know that what I was writing would become the bestselling Australian book of all time.
