    About this ebook

    To become financially independent, your money has to make more money. Besides having money, women should have a very good quality of life. In 10 Steps to Achieve Financial Independence, Shaku Atre puts these ten steps succinctly—starting with Good Lifestyle Habits, acquiring outstanding education, saving some money each month almost religiously, managing credit card debt (a credit card is really an instant loan card), striving to own your own home, getting the right types of insurances, making sure that your children get an outstanding education and are not loaded with student loans to start their adult life, becoming an entrepreneur if you have passion to start your own business, however small it might be, and putting together a team of associates who will complement your own skills. With all of these steps taken in time, cautiously but not timidly, you are bound to be successful. Once women learn how to take calculated risks there is no stopping them. And once you have reached the pinnacle of success, you can help other women to achieve the same.

    Shaku Atre

    Shaku Atre is an accomplished entrepreneur and a passionate advocate for helping women around the world develop skills to gain financial independence. Using her own micro-lending money, she has helped a number of young women become successful entrepreneurs in the U.S. and in India. She is a computer technologist who has worked with IBM, the FBI, AT&T, and many other prestigious organizations worldwide, and was a partner at Price Waterhouse Coopers. With her relentless drive to learn new skills, she has achieved her goal of financial independence. Currently a resident of New York City, Shaku grew up in a village in India, in a culture where women generally have a second-class status in society. Her chutzpah and drive for independence in every form stem from her upbringing and education. With the encouragement of an independent-thinking and supportive mother in India and an “adopted” mother in Germany, Shaku has fought her way past sexual and cultural biases.

      10 Steps to Achieve Financial Independence

      Step 1. Adopt good lifestyle habits.

      Step 2. Acquire an outstanding education and develop skills, discover your passion, and then try to find a job that fulfills your passion.

      Step 3. Always try to save some money each month, and don’t touch the savings unless it’s a matter of life and death.

      Step 4. Get a credit card, and use it only for purchases you can pay off in full when the invoice arrives.

      Step 5. Buy your own home so you don’t have to pay rent and you build equity over time. Invest a portion of your cash each month in the stock market, and hold on to the stocks to allow them to appreciate. Diversify your assets with real estate.

      Step 6. Obtain the right types of insurance, including medical insurance and long-term care insurance.

      Step 7. Prioritize your children’s education: save for their education before they are ready to attend college.

      Step 8. Start your own business with the help of a team of experts who will help you to succeed and grow.
