I really wish people on the covers of finance books would stop pointing at me.

Nevertheless, 4 Steps to Financial Freedom by Sean Toh is a good ebook. It sells for $18.90, but you can get it for free from Saiful’s blog. (Click that link, then click the picture of the ebook at the bottom of the post).

And this ebook really should have been free from the start. It’s good, but it’s not the kind of thing that you’d want to pay $18.90 for considering what’s already available on the internet for free.

Here are Sean’s 4 steps:

1. Get Healthy And Strive For Great Health

2. Adopt An Open Mindset To Learn

3. Invest Your Time In Financial And Health Education

4. Enjoy The Wealth That You Have Created

What I enjoyed most was Sean’s personal story of how he rose from humble beginnings to financial freedom. I love stuff like that.

One warning, though. This ebook is pretty long at 158 pages, and completely unfocused. It jumps all over the place, from bodybuilding to nutrition to mental health to putting together a financial plan to changing your mindset to the different types of income to how to trade stocks online in Singapore, etc. He has a lot of good stuff here, but I would have split it up into several more tightly focused ebooks.

I guess Sean’s breadth of knowledge comes from all the different experiences he’s had. For example, his jobs have included being a waiter, dishwasher, painter, construction worker, promoter, salesman, technician, flight attendant, lighting designer, engineer, personal trainer, educator, competitive bodybuilder, and model. Different experiences make life interesting, and I guess they also make for interesting ebooks, if you can handle the twists and turns.
