Do you know what happens when the inflation rate is more than the interest you earn on your savings? YOU LOSE MONEY.Currently, the top rate you can earn from a nationally available savings account in the U.S. is 0.50%. On the one hand, this means that saving $10,000 will leave you with $10,511 after ten years-a mere 5% increase. On the other hand, with the inflation rate at 6.2%, this means that you are losing 5.7% of your money every year in real terms.Inflation hurts savers because it erodes the purchasing power of the money they save. So, if your goal is to increase your wealth, you need to pay attention to investments that can help you beat inflation. And such investments are plentiful in the stock market. For example, the S&P 500 has delivered an annualized 10.7% growth rate for the last 30 years. This means that investing $10,000 in a fund that tracks the S&P 500 will leave you with $27,636 after ten years-a whopping 176% increase.As you can see, unlike what most people believe, participating in the stock market is one of the best ways to grow your wealth and beat inflation.

This book is based on a true story. In August 2008, two men from Nantucket went fishing for the day on the twenty-six-foot boat the Queen Bee. As they made their way back to shore, a wave tossed both men into the water. They were rescued by the Coast Guard, but the boat was believed to be lost at sea. In January 2012, the boat was discovered floating off the coast of Spain.

What would a life without sadness, anger, defeat, love, and vulnerability truly represent? It represents a life lived in fear. Every human is hesitant of showing their true, raw, authentic selves; fearing they will never be accepted. No matter what difficulties a person has faced, what age, what stage in life; every person will relate to the emotions felt in this piece. This book will make you question whether or not your life is meaningful, what positives/negatives you put back into the world, what life events/people have sculpted you, if you give into your demons or flood them out with light. Alex has courageously displayed all of his darkest thoughts for the public to see in such an artistic fashion.

Just as Neil Gaiman¿s The Graveyard Book reworked Kipling¿s The Jungle Book for a modern audience with a liking for the supernatural, Devilskein & Dearlove is a darker, more edgy, contemporary reworking of Frances Hodgson Burnett¿s classic The Secret Garden. An orphaned teenager is taken in by a reluctant distant relative, and in her new home makes an unexpected friend and finds a secret realm. It has shades of the quirky fantastical in the style of Miyazaki¿s (Studio Ghibli) animated films like Spirited Away and Howl¿s Moving Castle (originally a novel by Diana Wynne Jones).Alex says ¿As a child The Secret Garden was one of my first favourite novels - one of the first I relished reading by myself. Although Devilskein & Dearlove is very different, it was inspired by that novel and its themes.¿¿Alex Smith¿s quirky imagination knows no bounds.¿ - André Brink
