It doesn\u2019t teach you fancy Wall Street jargon or complex financial theories. Andrew Hallam wasn\u2019t Wall Street hot shot or hedge fund manager. He was a regular school teacher who used investing and good money habits to retire early.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is precisely why so many readers loved this book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The advice Hallam gives is timeless because it\u2019s realistic. It isn\u2019t based on trying to time the market, trade every week, or pick the next biggest stock. Rather, the book teaches you about behavior, discipline, fees, diversification, and thinking with a long-term mindset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sure, the book is years old now. But the majority of his investing rules are still insanely relevant today as we\u2019re flooded with social media posts about speculative investing ideas, meme stocks, crypto pumps, and \u201cget rich quick\u201d schemes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4wuJIm3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow sponsored\" title=\"Millionaire Teacher book review\">Millionaire Teacher book review<\/a>, I\u2019ll cover the 9 rules of investing from the book, explain why they\u2019re important, and give you my take on which rules still apply today.<\/p>\n\n\n<div style=\"max-width: -moz-fit-content\" class=\"wp-block-ub-table-of-contents-block ub_table-of-contents ub_table-of-contents-collapsed\" id=\"ub_table-of-contents-4f27ad08-33ab-4866-829d-3864bbec6f7a\" data-linktodivider=\"false\" data-showtext=\"show\" data-hidetext=\"hide\" data-scrolltype=\"auto\" data-enablesmoothscroll=\"false\" data-initiallyhideonmobile=\"false\" data-initiallyshow=\"false\"><div class=\"ub_table-of-contents-header-container\" style=\"\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"ub_table-of-contents-header\" style=\"text-align: left;

With social media we\u2019ve seen the rise of \u201cfinancial influencers\u201d making a living off of selling courses, paid communities, stock tips, or promises they can\u2019t possibly keep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A modern take on this rule of thumb is:<br>Whoever benefits from your investing, needs to have your best interests in mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-rule-2-index-funds-beat-most-active-investors\">Rule #2: Index Funds Beat Most Active Investors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis is probably the most well-known piece of advice from the book.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hallam has a great argument for investing in low-cost index funds over picking \u201cwinners.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His logic is simple:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Most active managers don\u2019t beat the market over the long-term<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fees make active investment even more difficult<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Consistency trumps genius<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The philosophy behind indexing is hard to argue with on a statistical level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over time broad stock market indexes have performed extremely well historically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the majority of people buying diversified index funds consistently is likely your best bet for becoming wealthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With that being said I want to add a small nuance to this chapter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many young investors these days love picking individual companies. Researching individually stocks and businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is nothing wrong with this and some people will truly outperform through deep research, concentration, and patience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The key distinction is:<br>The majority of people think they are above average investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only a small minority truly are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is why Index Funds are such an effective \u201cset it and forget it\u201d strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some of the greatest investors like Warren Buffett tell people to buy low-cost index funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Warren Buffett has said time and time again that the majority of people are better off buying cheap S&amp;P 500 Index Funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-rule-3-the-stock-market-rewards-patience\">Rule #3: The Stock Market Rewards Patience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perhaps the most valuable investing lesson in the book is not financial, but psychological.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Patience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hallam drills this into us over and over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The stock market will be incredibly volatile in the short term. But patient investors are rewarded over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s easy to understand this during good times in the market. But when everything crashes? That\u2019s when this lesson is put to the test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When stock portfolios plummet 20\u201340% overnight seemingly everyone starts panicking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They sell their stocks near all-time lows and flee to cash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The book teaches us that volatility is part of the investing journey. Volatility is what we pay for long-term gains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This lesson rang true multiple times over for me:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>During the financial crisis of 2008.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The COVID crash of 2020.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The growth stock correction of 2022.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Time and time again, investors who stayed fully invested saw their portfolios recover and thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meanwhile \u201ctraders\u201d who psych themselves out and try to time the market their whole lives hurt their own returns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This might be the toughest investing lesson to learn:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your emotions will be your biggest investing enemy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-rule-4-diversification-protects-you-from-disaster\">Rule #4: Diversification Protects You From Disaster<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hallam was a big believer in international diversification. Don\u2019t put all your eggs in one country basket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This advice has stood the test of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bull markets make investors greedy. They reach for concentrated bets like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>AI stocks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tech stocks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Crypto<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Single country<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Single theme<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes going concentrated works great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But for every success story, there are countless portfolios devastated by concentration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Diversification is boring, but it helps prevent disasters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The problem investors face today is that U.S. tech stocks have crushed international markets for a very long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That makes it really hard for younger investors to understand the value of diversification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why should I diversify if U.S. tech will just keep on winning? ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because nobody knows what happens next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Market leadership changes throughout history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Japan was king.

investing environment is different now.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ETFs are much more accessible worldwide.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tax\/tax-loss harvesting discussions may be outdated for your

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hallam\u2019s investing habits and, more importantly, behavioral advice will change your investing forever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even if you don\u2019t adopt his strategies, you can still learn a lot from his book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"11-should-you-read-millionaire-teacher\">Should You Read Millionaire Teacher?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think this book would be particularly valuable if you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Are a young professional<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are a first time investor<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Feel overwhelmed by investing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are trying to build wealth for the long term<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are an investor that gets swayed by hype \/ speculation too often<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The book will likely feel elementary if you have already been investing for many years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, even the most veteran investors could use reminders about:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Discipline<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Patience<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fees<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keeping your emotions in check<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Thinking about the

full of noise and speculation, Millionaire Teacher may be needed now more than ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"12-final-verdict\">Final Verdict<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Millionaire Teacher works because it makes investing approachable without dumbing it down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Andrew Hallam doesn\u2019t claim you\u2019ll become rich overnight.<br>He doesn\u2019t peddle false hope.<br>And he doesn\u2019t make investing sound easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What he does is educate his readers on how to think about money and investing for the long haul (decades! ).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That mental framework is likely FAR more valuable than any \u201chot stock tip.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the majority of people, getting rich isn\u2019t about picking the next Nvidia.<br>It\u2019s not about timing the market either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s about\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Consistency<br>Patience<br>Avoiding mistakes<br>Allowing compounding to do it\u2019s thing over time<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Millionaire Teacher covers those concepts better than most investing books I\u2019ve read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re just starting out with investing, this is DEFINITELY a book you should pick up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If I could pick one investing book that I want EVERY young person to read before purchasing
