Finance Action Hero

Is the world of money and finance a mystery to you... in fact a foreign film without any subtitles? Do you want to stop procrastinating about getting your finances sorted, and start attacking financial decisions with a rocket launcher and your own common sense?
Then this is the book for you! With the tongue in cheek analogies using the best adventure stories, Finance Action Hero will get you out of your perpetual state of money worry and give you an arsenal to attack any finance mission you choose to accept.
As Part 1 in the Finance Action Hero series, Basic Training takes you through the 10 Secrets of the Money Universe to ensure you are battle ready before letting you loose on your first financial mission in Part 2 - Mission Possible.
Be the Action Hero in your own finance mission... and meet your geeky sidekick Peita!

Pieta Diamantidis is a new form of 'geek' hybrid - maths and finance nerdiness combined with a passion for communicating that has her on a mission to empower the public to take charge of their finances.
With a background in Actuarial Studies (financial mathematicians that make accountants look hip and groovy) Peita brings a deep understanding of the fundamentals of money and finance. That understanding, together with her years of experience witnessing complex financial transactions that very rarely led to great outcomes, has brought her to the realisation that in money, just like in life, the simplest approaches yield the best results. With a quirky sense of humour and a deep and abiding love of movies, Pieta is in the unique position of being able to use humour and storytelling to communicate the best way to approach an individual's finances.
