Spiraling Up

Steven Medland

Why do some people effortlessly achieve financial success, yet others never do?

You’ve worked hard to become financially successful, but you still feel frustrated. Unfortunately, rising inflation, rampant consumerism, and the growing length of retirement make this scenario all too common. A million dollars just isn’t what it used to be. How can you finally stop worrying and begin enjoying the fruits of your success?

In Spiraling Up, financial planner Steven Medland lays out a deceptively simple plan to confidently grow and protect your wealth. Through clear and compelling real-life stories, he illustrates the proven principles that lead to financial serenity, making work optional, and living happily in retirement.

So, how do you create the virtuous cycle that leads to spiraling up financially? This book gives you the secrets that informed investors use to achieve financial freedom and retire with confidence. They will work for you, too.
