Making Money With Nuts and Bolts
Just before my book, Millionaire Teacher, was released late last year my publisher, John Wiley & Sons, hired a reviewer to assess the manuscript. I was a first time author, and my contract suggested that if the book wasn’t worthy, the publisher had the right to terminate the contract. For some reason, I had a …

How Asia Could Fuel Our Stock Market
Asia’s in love with America. I’ve asked English speaking kids on the streets of Shanghai, China; Bombay, India; Bangkok, Thailand and Singapore where they would love to go to college if cost weren’t a consideration. Without a moment’s hesitation, they say America. Among the young Koreans I’ve asked, the answer’s practically an involuntary reflex. Few …

Can Your Dentist Offer A Free Trip to Thailand?
© AssetBuilder I’ll admit that I was pretty sceptical. I met two New Yorkers in Chiang Mai, a northern Thai city that’s becoming as famous for its dental clinics as it is for elephant rides and luxurious spas. The young women claimed that they weren’t primarily visiting Thailand for a vacation, but for dental work. …

What Cancer and Investing Have In Common
Two years ago I lay on a sofa, as a new age “hands on” healer stood over me. I was dying, she moaned, as if getting the word from some divine source in the couch. And my only salvation? To visit her as often as possible, for $175 a session. She knew that I had …

Welcome to My Blog!
I'm Andrew Hallam. Many people aren't comfortable talking about money. It's not usually a conversational dinner-time topic, and its principles are rarely taught in schools. My goal is to have a "conversation" about it here, on this blog. If you read something you find intriguing, please comment or ask your questions!
I am also the author of the book, Millionaire Teacher: The Nine Rules of Wealth You Should Have Learned at School
