Uncle Eric Talks About Personal, Career, and Financial Security

In this extensively revised and expanded second edition of Uncle Eric Talks About Personal, Career, and Financial Security, Uncle Eric introduces the concept of models. Models (or paradigms) are how people think; they are how we understand our world. Models help us recognize and use the information that is important and bypass that which is not.

To achieve success in our careers, investments, and every other part of our lives, we need sound models. In this book, Mr. Maybury introduces the models he has found most useful (Economics and Higher Law).

Using the epistolary style of writing (using letters to tell a story), Mr. Maybury plays the part of an economist (Uncle Eric) writing a series of letters to his niece or nephew (Chris). Using stories and examples, Mr. Maybury gives interesting and clear explanations of topics that are generally thought to be too difficult for anyone but experts.

Mr. Maybury warns, "beware of anyone who tells you a topic is above you or better left to experts. Many people are twice as smart as they think they are, but they've been intimidated into believing some topics are above them. You can understand almost anything if it is explained well."

This is the first book in the Uncle Eric Series and, while designed to stand alone, it also provides an excellent foundation for Maybury's Other Books.
