What Readers Are Saying
“Building wealth has often felt out of reach, if not impossible, especially as a young professional. This book effectively destroys that myth. From paying student loans and managing debt, to planning for retirement and sharing with others through philanthropy, The High Achiever’s Guide to Wealth is a much-needed resource.”
Ben Hall, vice president (development), Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum • Nashville, Tennessee
“I think The High Achiever’s Guide to Wealth is such a great read for someone like myself. Being a professional athlete now, I’m able to better understand life situations that weren’t taught in school. For example, whenever I have a curiosity about [taxes,] it’s easy to just flip to that specific chapter to help me better understand what certain things mean. I’m also someone who likes to save, but this book allows me to assert better clarification of the importance of it as well — Overall, I think everyone needs to get their hands on this no matter what age you are. It’s the future cheat code to success.”
Messiah Bright, forward, Angel City Football Club • Los Angeles, California
“This information is indispensable. My confidence in my own financial life has grown exponentially since working with Palisades Hudson. This book personifies the wealth of knowledge they have given me.”
Kendall Schmidt, recording artist/songwriter/actor • Los Angeles, California
“Have you ever reached the point of adulthood where you asked ‘Why didn’t they teach us any of this stuff in college?’ This is the most practical guide to wealth-building even if you have no idea where to start. It’s what we all wish we would’ve learned in college instead of being forced to relearn the Pythagorean theorem.”
Maya Elious, CEO/brand strategist, Built To Impact® • Atlanta, Georgia
“Palisades Hudson has been a vital financial presence in my life. I learned ‘the ropes’ of personal, estate, and tax planning first as a staff member and then, after a career path change, as a client. This book lets you learn those same ‘ropes.’ I believe in PHFG’s professionals because the work they do is excellent and they are all highly ethical individuals that share my values.”
Carmelo Bueti, senior vice president, J.S. Held • Brooklyn, New York
“I absolutely love it. It literally reeled me in from the beginning. And I especially loved the breakdown of setting goals and saving.”
Shari Short, performer/songwriter/producer • Los Angeles, California
