Learn to save, invest, and plan to achieve financial independence in retirement and take charge of your financial destiny, from the author of The Coffeehouse Investor
In The Coffeehouse Investor's Ground Rules, financial advisor Bill Schultheis helps you take control of your long-term financial goals and enjoy financial freedom in retirement. Building upon the philosophy that made his first book, The Coffeehouse Investor, a critically-acclaimed bestseller, Bill shows you how ignoring Wall Street and the myth of the 'perfect portfolio' lets you focus on the only three components that really matter--saving, investing, and planning.
One of the most common mistakes investors make is staking their entire financial futures on index funds while ignoring the basics. Index funds are not the solution to building lasting wealth. Index funds are simply the financial tools that enable you to devote your attention to the essential components of long-term financial security. By following the "Ground Rules" in this real-world guide, you can transform your whole approach to saving, investing, and planning, and become a true 'Coffeehouse Investor.' Packed with personal stories and easy-to-understand explanations of financial concepts, this engaging and enlightening book shows you how to:
- Tune out the noise of Wall Street an adopt a simpler, smarter long-term investment philosophy
- Navigate the stock market, decide how much to save, and know where to put your investments
- Save money with confidence and stop underestimating your own financial abilities
- Reap enormous benefits tomorrow by saving even small amounts today
- Build a well-balanced financial plan that incorporates tax management, insurance, and estate planning
If you're a man or woman wanting to become more involved in your long-term finances, The Coffeehouse Investor's Ground Rules: Save, Invest, and Plan for a Life of Wealth and Happiness is a must-have resource.

Take control of your financial future and live your rich life. This book will show you how.
Too many investors are consumed with the daily ups and downs of the stock market. Coffeehouse Investors take a different approach to a life of wealth and happiness by focusing on things they can control and tuning out the things they can't.
In 1998, in the midst of the dot.com stock market boom, Bill Schultheis wrote his first book, The Coffeehouse Investor: How to Build Wealth, Ignore Wall Street and Get On With Your Life. Profound in its simplicity, the late John Bogle selected it as his top book for beginning investors.
Those who embraced Bill's simple approach to building wealth over the past two decades have inspired him to write The Coffeehouse Investor's Ground Rules: Save, Invest, and Plan for a Life of Wealth and Happiness. In his new book, he shares stories of investors from 23 to 90 years old who focus on financial planning issues that matter most of all, allowing them to live their lives with a spirit of abundance that transcends the daily commotion of Wall Street.
Save, invest, and plan. These ground rules will impact your life as they have Coffeehouse Investors.
The Coffeehouse Investor is more than a book--it is a movement of people who are taking control of their financial destiny by focusing on simple ground rules.
SAVE--the heart of building wealth.
INVEST--driven by your risk tolerance.
PLAN--the soul of your financial destiny.
Take a moment to SIP your favorite roasted blend. Ponder these ground rules. Live your life of wealth and happiness.

"Bill Schultheis has given readers something new: a book about index investing for people who like words and stories more than numbers and tables. Don't miss his 'Outfox the Box' illustration.
