Learn moreMoney Plain & Simple provides a straightforward guide to understanding the global monetary system and why the shine is off the US dollar’s position as the Gold Standard of world currencies. Steven J. Spence, a military veteran and corporate employee-turned-entrepreneur, lays out a concise history of the US monetary system. He’s candid about his own hard-won life lessons and then shares how he came to discover the tough realities revealed in this informative audiobook. The author explains in layperson’s terms how the institutions behind money work and how it affects you. He also offers timely insights into what’s going on right now from cryptocurrency to inflation and hyper-inflation and steps you should consider to secure your own financial future.
Steven J. Spence is a retired US Air Force veteran, airline mechanic, aircraft builder, and an owner of a real estate rental investment company. Throughout his military and airline careers, he taught airline safety to groups around the world. Spence grew up in poverty with a single mom, who immigrated from Germany with her American military husband only to find herself alone with two young sons in the wake of a divorce. With no role models, Spence had no understanding about how to build his financial future. Now a successful entrepreneur, he focuses on financial literacy as it relates to the ordinary person.
