Charuka Abhayawickrama embarked on an educational sojourn to Australia at the age of 19 with dreams of acquiring a university degree. In a few short years, he completed bachelor of IT and master of computing degrees and found himself working with major industry players such as APRA, Insurance Australia Group, and Commsec-one of the leading retail stock brokers in the region. Driven by an innate entrepreneurial spirit, Charuka founded, managed, and eventually divested an array of businesses that spanned the hospitality, consultancy, and software development sectors.By the age of 45, Charuka relinquished the conventional 9-to-5 grind, having accumulated sufficient passive income through astute stock market investments-which he initiated at the tender age of 15-and shrewd property acquisitions in Australia. He has dedicated himself to ensuring that his wealth isn't just a fleeting family legacy. Despite being steeped in financial wisdom, he often finds himself in generational debates with his tech-savvy teenagers, who, influenced by the digitized world of TikTok and Instagram, regard his traditional financial philosophies as somewhat pass�.In light of these familial discussions and recognizing the skepticism that may surround 'old-school' wisdom in the digital age, Charuka authored this book. Whether you share his children's modern views on finance or you're a seeker of proven financial strategies, his book aims to offer invaluable principles distilled from both his triumphs and missteps. For Charuka, money may not directly buy happiness, but it certainly widens the array of possibilities on the path to a fulfilling life.
