This is the book description for Mindful Money Management: Memoirs of a Hedge Fund Manager:
Have you ever had an investment go against you? You bought a stock and it immediately dropped ten or twenty per cent. You bought real estate in 2007 and within two years you had lost 30%. How did you react? Were your prepared? Did you have a game plan? Were you prepared to buy more? Did you make a decision out of fear or out of faith? What are your hidden beliefs around money?
Mindful money management gives you a roadmap to success by one professional money manager:
-
How he overcame adversity in the stock market
-
What mindful practices he used along the way
-
His recommendations for how to deal with doubt, fear, stress
-
What happy habits he used in the most difficult times.
Mindful money management is a must read for those wanting to get access to many of the techniques Joel teaches in Prosperity Coaching. He can be reached at JoelSalomon.com.
In 2016, Joel shifted his focus to assisting individuals as a Prosperity Coach where he works closely with his clients to help identify and overcome the roadblocks standing in their way of personal financial freedom.
In 2012, Joel launched his own hedge fund, SaLaurMor Capital (named after his daughters, Lauren and Morgan). This was a dream that Joel had had from the early 1990s. Since inception he outperformed the hedge fund index and in many significant down months, he was able to consistently generate positive returns for his investors.
Prior to SaLaurMor, Joel was a portfolio manager at Citi where he managed a long/short equity and credit portfolio focused on insurers, asset managers, and specialty finance companies. Joel successfully grew that portfolio from under $100 Million in 2008 to $700 Million in 2011. In each full year as portfolio manager, he generated positive returns, including in 2008 when the market collapsed 40%.
Joel has spent over 20 years analyzing, rating, and reporting on global insurers. He has over a decade of experience investing in financial stocks, and working at insurance and reinsurance companies.
Joel was designated a Fellow of the Society of Actuaries in 1992 and has been a Chartered Financial Analyst since 1995.
