After revisiting some Jim Rohn audio, I felt compelled to share what was swirling around that gray matter of mine between the ears. That audio led me to create what I’m not referring to as the P’s and C’s to living a prosperous life. When I think about what it takes to live a truly […]| Gen Y Finance Guy
Let’s get something straight. Money is a tool! By itself it is nothing more than paper and metal, but it is a powerful means to many different ends. It provides the one who has it with optionality.
