The Necessity of Finance (2013) Book Trailer by Dr. Anthony M. Criniti IV (aka “Dr. Finance®”) How to Buy The Necessity of Finance Book: For more information about Dr. Anthony M. Criniti IV (aka "Dr. Finance®") and his #books, please visit: https://drfinance.info/books or ask your local bookstore for a copy About The Necessity of Finance Book: The fundamental principles of finance have very simple origins and one can trace their roots to the beginning of human civilization. But as a subject, finance has evolved—particularly in the past fifty years—into an extremely complicated and potentially confusing form. The Necessity of Finance: An Overview of the Science of Management of Wealth for an Individual, a Group, or an Organization seeks to provide a comprehensive and concise orientation for those seeking a more understandable presentation of the complex nature of finance. Using everyday terms and readily grasped concepts, Dr. Anthony M. Criniti IV, a former financial consultant and current university-level finance professor, sets out to detail the necessity of finance; to clarify the definition, purpose, and goals of both finance and economics; to explore financial concepts in a straightforward manner; and to stimulate interest and understanding that will lead to ongoing investigation. Finance, although highly interrelated with many subjects, is a separate field of study that is often confused with other areas, most notably economics. With world wealth accumulating to its highest point in history, the necessity to understand this subject on its own terms is more crucial than ever. The Necessity of Finance highlights the need to engage with finance as a separate science, clears up the confusion with related subjects, and coins the word "financialists" to identify the scientists in this dynamic field. Starting with a discussion about the need for finance, and moving forward to establish the definition, purpose, goals, and history of both finance and economics, presenting in the process the basic terminology necessary to understand these subjects, The Necessity of Finance will equip the beginner to intermediate level financial student with vital information and a clear approach for continued study. In addition, its unique perspective will be of value to the advanced student and the practitioner. Topics addressed include: What is the difference between money and wealth? What is the difference between investing and saving? What is risk and return? Major financial questions are also analyzed, including: What kinds of investments exist? What are the different techniques for selecting investments? What role does ethics play in finance? Finance is not an easy subject for the average student. While The Necessity of Finance does not replace the need for required college textbooks, it will serve as an indispensible supplemental learning tool that may clarify expectations of future financial journeys, whether it’s learning in a university or actively investing in the marketplace. In this extremely useful overview, Dr. Criniti demonstrates that finance is a very promising science that will benefit those who commit themselves to its study and practice.

The Survival of the Richest (2016) Book Trailer by Dr. Anthony M. Criniti IV (aka “Dr. Finance®”) How to Buy The Survival of the Richest (2016) Book: For more information about Dr. Anthony M. Criniti IV (aka "Dr. Finance®") and his #books, please visit: https://drfinance.info/books or ask your local bookstore for a copy About The Survival of the Richest (2016) Book: The Survival of the Richest: An Analysis of the Relationship between the Sciences of Biology, Economics, Finance, and Survivalism is Dr. Anthony M. Criniti IV’s remarkable follow-up to his acclaimed book, The Necessity of Finance. Exploring in greater depth how the sciences of economics and finance are necessary for their respective entities to survive, this book integrates some of the hardest concepts of several very important fields of scientific inquiry. Deriving serious conclusions on the future of humanity, this provocative work is divided into five parts that discuss the science of survival, survivalism’s connection to economics and finance, the relationship of biology and various reformed natural selection processes to wealth, and the role of humans as the ultimate universal manager. Dr. Criniti provides a comprehensive overview of survival; clarifies the proper order of prosperity; shows that being wealthier increases your probability of continuously surviving and prospering by providing you the greatest options to obtaining survival essentials; indicates that wealthier entities have the option to help other economic or financial entities (including nonhuman ones) survive and prosper, particularly through the concepts of the survival and the prosperity by a third party; demonstrates the inevitable relationship between biology, economics, finance, and survivalism; demonstrates that both individuals and populations of species evolve; summarizes, reforms, and adds to existing evolutionary selection processes; confirms that the management of money, and the technology that it can buy, is an advanced, necessary stage in the process of evolution—that is, the evolution of evolution; demonstrates that the survival of the richest is a more accurate concept than the survival of the fittest; and shows that all humanity should have the united goal of maximizing our wealth for our survival on this planet and beyond. This seminal work delivers a powerful analysis of the current human predicament as well as a call to people around the world, urging them to begin making better decisions. In the vein of Charles Darwin’s The Origin of Species and Jared Diamond’s Guns, Germs, and Steel, this book is designed for the well-educated—though it is equally valuable for the layperson interested in helping to protect the planet.
