      About the Author

      Prologue

      This book is written to help you better your life by becoming a better person. I believe you can change and better your situation. My goal is to encourage you to make changes for the better.

      I do want to acknowledge that while this book is written to help anyone it can, it is not aimed at people who are in dire straits due to circumstances beyond their control. Sadly, we live in a world with many inequalities and prejudices, and this book is not intended for victims of those circumstances. Nor is it aimed at those who have been victims of injustice. This book is for those whose difficult situations are a result of their own choices. However, the principles in this book can help people learn to cope with their situations and deal with people they come in contact with.

      This book will make you smile, laugh, and think twice. Its goal is to open your eyes so you begin to see your situation realistically, become motivated to change in areas of your life that need improvement, and improve the overall quality of your life. Please enjoy.

      Section I The Reality

      1. Reality Hurts

      Choices. Choices. Choices. That is the bottom line. That is what we will consider in this book: choices. We will see how the choices you make today will affect everything from you to your family and from today to many tomorrows. Little choices are just pebbles on the trail to where you want to go, and where you want to go is what you have to decide. Will you take the trail to Brokeville or to a life of success and financial freedom?

      This book will help you look at yourself honestly. It will help you look at decisions, and it will give you a formula you can use to make wise ones. It will identify attitudes Brokeville is famous for and ones needed to move out of that town.

      This is a book to be read in an honest manner. Are you broke? Do you know someone who is? Do you want to make sure you are never broke? Then this book is for you. Read it with the intent to change where you need to change. Doing the same thing you have always done will only get you what you have now. If you want to better your life, choose to do so. Congratulations in taking the first step by reading this book. Now take the second step and apply the advice.

      Folks, I only want to help you. Day after day I meet broke people—people who live within pennies of their paychecks. And within minutes
