Publisher's summary
The book details an African American mother's rise from the poverty of being orphaned at age 4 with 15 siblings, the lessons her struggles and rise taught her children, and her approach to single motherhood and parenting. Her tactics and rationale are backed by scripture, practical application, doctoral level studies, research and professional journals. She dropped out of middle school and left home while pregnant at the age of 13. At the age of 19, she was a single divorced mother of 3, living in the worst projects in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Determined to give a better life and example to her children, she enrolled in High School Completion Courses and successfully graduated from College at the tender age of 23. She moved her children from the projects into a single family home and the middle class within months of graduating college. Paying off her home by the age of 45 and retiring at the age of 52, this book tells us of her discipline, humility, and continued generosity. Her lessons of self-determination, resilience, sacrifice, mental toughness, frugality, unconditional love, tough love with wisdom, humor, friendship and the strength to face all adversity in spite of the odds, stereotypes, and rampant racism serve her children well. She teaches that a life without excuses is a life without limits. If she did it, you too can succeed in spite of...

Most people know Dave Ramsey as the guy who did stupid with a lot of zeros on the end. He made his first million in his twenties—the wrong way—and then went bankrupt. That’s when he set out to learn what God had to say about managing money and building wealth. As a result, Dave developed the Ramsey Baby Steps and became a millionaire again—this time the right way. After three decades of guiding millions of others through the plan, the evidence is undeniable: the Baby Steps not only work for everyone, but they’re proven to work fast.

Story
Moving to America in 2008, Finnish journalist Anu Partanen quickly went from confident, successful professional to wary, self-doubting mess. She found that navigating the basics of everyday life - from buying a cell phone and filing taxes to education and childcare - was much more complicated and stressful than anything she encountered in her homeland. At first she attributed her crippling anxiety to the difficulty of adapting to a freewheeling new culture. But as she got to know Americans better, she discovered they shared her deep apprehension.

The truth shall set you free. Ignoring it will cost you a fortune. It has become clear that we are living a lie, and it has brought devastating results: Bankruptcy among churchgoers is equally as high as for those who don't attend. Financial misconduct is destroying marriages, families, individuals, and churches. A record number of churches are in foreclosure.

Story
How important is luck in economic success? No question more reliably divides conservatives from liberals. As conservatives correctly observe, people who amass great fortunes are almost always talented and hardworking. But liberals are also correct to note that countless others have those same qualities yet never earn much. In recent years, social scientists have discovered that chance plays a much larger role in important life outcomes than most people imagine.
