Over the years I’ve made a lot of decisions about how to invest my time and my money. These decisions have grown the small savings of a college kid into thousands of times more, and they’ve drastically increased my character and my skills.

Along the way I collected broad principles into a document that became my personal guide to investment decisions. This is not just about what to do with stocks and bonds, but what to do with time, buildings, and resource allocation within my own businesses.

Others have found my thoughts on this subject helpful, so now I’m making my personal investment manifesto into a book. It might be called “Return on Everything: Making Sound Investment Decisions with Your Time and Your Money”.

I’m announcing it now, when the first draft is only half written, for two reasons:

1) It’s a public commitment that I will finish it.

2) I want to give you the chance to be the first to read it and give feedback.

If you’d like to do that send me a message at mark@aardsma.com. I’ll send you a pre-release copy when it’s ready. Thanks!
