"Although this book is about why the rich go broke, the core message is why people go broke and why so many are never able to achieve their financial dreams. Unlike the thousands of traditional 'how-to' personal finance books that use traditional methods that rarely induce change, these stories elicit something deep within that allows you to achieve lasting financial freedom and peace of mind you want, and you deserve. There are two ways to share knowledge: you can push information in, or you can draw information out with story. A good story, well told, can change the world. After 25 years in the trenches guiding thousands of individuals and small business owners, John MacGregor opens the vault to share 10 incredible stories that have the power to transform your financial life forever."--Amazon

Excerpt: ...happy, pleasant scene with mingled feelings, and tried to think out what was the daily life in this sequestered mill; and if my paddling did for a time become a little sentimental, it may be pardoned by travellers who have come among kind friends where they expected perhaps a cold rebuff. The romantic effect of all this was to make me desperately hungry, for be it known that bread and wine and Beethoven will not do to dine upon if you are rowing forty miles in the sun, So it must be confessed that when an hour afterwards I saw an auberge by the water's edge it became necessary to stifle my feelings by ordering an omelette and two chops. The table was soon spread under a shady peartree just by the water, and the Rob Roy rested gently on the ripples at my feet. The pleasures of this sunny hour of well-earned repose, freshened by a bunch of grapes and a pear plucked from above my head, were just a little troubled by a slight apprehension that some day the miller's sister might come by and hear how had been comforted my lacerated heart. Again "to boat," and down by the shady trees, under the towering rocks, over the nimble rapids, and winding among orchards, vineyards, and wholesome scented hay, the same old story of constant varied pleasure. The hills were in front now, and their contour showed that some rivers were to join company with the Reuss, which here rolled on a fine broad stream, like the Thames at Putney. Presently the Limmat flowed in at one side, and at the other the river Aar, which last then gives the 164 THE LIMMAT AND THE AAR. name to all the three, though it did not appear to be the largest. This is not the only Aar among the rivers, but it is the "old original bar," which Swiss travellers regard as an...
It was a strange and pleasant life for me all the summer, sailing entirely alone by sea and river fifteen hundred miles, and with its toils, perils, and adventures heartily enjoyed. The two preceding summers I had paddled alone in an oak canoe, first through central Europe, and next over Norway and Sweden; but though both of these voyages were delightful, they had still the drawback, that progress was mainly dependent on muscular effort, that food must be had from shore, and that I could not sleep on the water.
