About this listen
Today, we live in a world of 24-hour business television, high-speed trading, and volatile capital markets. Instead of asking your dentist for a hot stock tip, you need only turn on the TV to hear what the talking heads recommend or jump on the Internet to find thousands of web sites devoted to showing you how to make a quick buck. Don't listen to pundits and faceless Internet "experts". Consider instead the power of income investing. If you want true wealth building and the ability to retire on time, consider becoming a "snowball" investor. This type of investor focuses not on what the price of the investment is, but the income it produces. A "snowball" investor embraces a buy-and-hold state of mind and buys dividend-bearing stocks and bonds.
This book is not written for stock speculators, but for those investors that can embrace the concept of buying and holding income producing securities. The Snowball Effect was written to provide a winning investment strategy that will allow investors to survive difficult stock markets and actually retire on time. By listening to this book, you will;
- Learn how to reap income from companies each year through dividend & interest payments
- Learn how to reinvest those payments in a prudent manner to build your investment portfolio over time
- Learn how to sell covered calls against your investment portfolio to further enhance your income
- Learn how investing in micro-cap dividend stocks can not only provide income, but provide enhanced diversification to your portfolio
- Learn what bonds to own and which bonds to avoid
- Learn about the Top 100 dividend stocks that can serve as the anchor to your investment portfolio
Please note: The audio references supplemental material that is not included with the purchase of this audiobook.

Story
The Fed today is not our friend. Its "low rates forever" policy means we must look elsewhere for yield. Dividend-paying stocks don't help. Blue chips don't pay more than 2% or 3%. On a $1 million portfolio, that's less than $30,000 in annual income. Not enough. There's a better way. Income investing experts Brett Owens and Tom Jacobs show you how to safely double, triple and even quadruple these yields. Turn that 2% that stocks pay into 6%, 7% and even 8% (for $80,000 on that million bucks) without doing anything risky.

I went from $0 to $68,000 in dividend income with over $100k in sight and so can you! If you are like most people, you are tired of going to your nine-to-five job every day, and you are always looking forward to that next vacation. Your money comes in and is gone again just as quickly. You may have some money saved up for retirement, but that is still 25 years or more away. So in the meantime, you are stuck with the same people, in the same job, in the same house, with the same car, and the same two-week vacation for the foreseeable future.

Not worth the time even if it’s free
This the worst narrator I’ve ever listened to. He doesn’t even bother to correct the mistakes he makes while reading. At one point he had to restart a sentence 3 times but left it unedited. Also, he reads as if his mouth is full of food. It’s not reading, it’s mumbling. Would rather listen to a computer read. Anyway, was total waste of money and time. I couldn’t finish it. And regarding the book itself, it has a big name but where’s the meat?
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
