This book not only tells how celebrities have been successful, but it also describes how everyday people have achieved their success. It contains useful terminology and how-to sections on creating personal spending plans, preparing for home buying/real estate purchases, starting your own business, and more.
This book has inspired me to revisit my own personal goals and start taking the necessary steps toward achieving them.
This is a great book to be shared with youth too!
