This post is actually the same one that appears today on my Self Help Blog, so if you’re one of the super-sexy, ridiculously beautiful, unspeakably cool and intelligent people who reads both of these blogs - you can skip one of the posts. You know who you are cool beans….both of you.
A week ago, I had the supreme pleasure of reading an e-book, When Money Talks, Listen! by Rich Ezzo. It took only about an hour to read, and that included one trip to the coffee maker and about 10 distractions from Alexa (our cat) who knows she’s the center of the universe. Just try telling her differently.
I’m not a person who sits still well, so I actually began reading with every intention of bookmarking the pdf and finishing later in the day. However, I didn’t realize just how pulled into the delightful fiction I would become. I finished it in one sitting and loved every minute
When I first received a copy, I thought it was a Get Rich Quick-type of publication. Nothing wrong with Getting Rich Quick or any other way, mind you - but my mind just doesn’t chase after dreams of wealth. It has grand plans, mind you, which include saving the world, but I’m not a wealth chaser. I figure that if God ever wants me to be rich, He knows where to find my purse.
Needless to say, when I began reading When Money Talks, Listen!, I was overjoyed to find that Rich Ezzo isn’t money hungry either. He, too, is hungry for things far more important than money.
I absolutely love this e-book. Why wait a week to write the review? Simple. I wanted to see if the impact it had on me was a keeper. After reading the last word of the e-book, I totally agreed with the subtitle which promised to forever change the way we thought about money. I had so many thoughts running around my mind that I had to install a stop light to stop some while others made their way into the picture - then you yield them as a few new ones arrived in town. I had a mental traffic jam, which only goes to show how slow the traffic usually is.
It has been a week and the impact is the same. I truly do look at money differently and have even done a few things differently this week. This is an e-book you’ll want to read, I guarantee it. I often recommend books to my daughters, and this is one that I didn’t just “suggest” - I left it open at the bottom of the computer and told each one, “Read it, you’ll love it.” Like a lot of the meals I fix for them, I didn’t tell them how good it would be for them, just how good it was!
I honestly don’t want to give anything, whatsoever, away about this story, simply because I want you to have the same experience I did. The e-book is less than $10 and will take only about an hour to read. As I’ve said many times on this blog as well as other blogs I publish, I would never recommend anything I didn’t wholeheartedly stand behind. Whether it’s a movie (Sweeney Todd), an author (Dean Koontz), a drink (Panera Bread’s Iced Green Tea), a cause (World Vision), or a way of life (Starbucks) - I would never point someone in a direction I wouldn’t go myself. More telling than that, I’d never recommend something to my readers that I wouldn’t recommend to my daughters.
I urge you to visit the author’s web site, Myster Money, and to download the e-book. You won’t regret it. When you finish the story, keep scrolling (or, better yet, print it out), there are several cool things you’ll want to check out, including lessons that pertain to the story.
We all need more unexpected, life-challenging surprises in our life - they keep us on our toes and keep life interesting. This is one of those special little treats that’ll honestly help you start your year off right. You may even get a head buzzing traffic jam in the process.
One last word, get the e-book.
