So many financial dreams are thwarted by the failure to act upon good intentions.

Rather than saying, 'My checking account is a wreck,' change it to 'I will learn how to track my spending and balance my checkbook.'

... show respect for your money ... Then your money will think and care about you in return.

Who would you want to be giving you advice? Somebody who doesn't have any money?

Liking who you are and liking what you do can make you an incredibly successful person.

What happens to your money directly affects the quality of your life -- not your stockbroker's life or your banker's life, but YOUR life.

Money doesn't bring courage, I learned. It's the other way around. Once I took that lesson to heart, I began to rebuild my life.
