This article is an attempt to summarise the strategy, tips and techniques that I have used to achieve financial freedom. I have tried different approaches to building wealth. I did all the things most average investors did. Buying property, buying shares, term deposites and so on. Consequently, the returns I got were average. I concluded that I was not much better off than if I did nothing, and just left my capital in the bank.

After about 10 years of average performance, I started learning more about the ways the Rich invested. My strategy took shape around what I have learned, taking advantage of techniques that rich people use to accelerate the wealth creation process. Since the strategy incorporates a lot of concepts and techniques, the information presented here is in layers. You can drill into and out of individual topics on tips and techniques as you read. I hope my work will save you a lot of time, as I try to summarise everything that I have learned and experienced over the years.

In the first paragraph, I will describe the overall strategy that I picked to get rich. Then, I will describe individual techniques, tips and tactics that I have used to implement the strategy.
