Messages about money are passed down from generation to generation, worn and chipped like the family dishes.

I simply want you to give to yourself as much as you give of yourself. By taking care of yourself financially, you will truly be able to take care of those you love.

Money is such an amazing teacher: What you choose to do with your money shows whether you are truly powerful or powerless.

Put your financial life on autopilot as a form of 'forced' saving.

You are to set your own value, communicate that value to the world, and then not settle for less. Sound daunting? That's just because it takes you out of your comfort zone. You have got to stop being an obstacle on your own path to wealth and security and happiness. You must understand that valuing yourself is well within your control.

You can have all the money in the world. You can be a multi-billionaire, but if you do not have your health it means nothing. Your health is the No. 1 important thing in your life.

Live below your means but within your needs.
