There's an inexorable link between life and money. In life we have goals and dreams and we have things and people that motivate and inspire us. But once we are inspired we almost always need money as a tool. If we want to be parents, if we want our dream home, if we want to be of service, there is no way to escape the life/money link. In Life and Money, I've embraced the link. Rather than apologize for wanting money, I encourage readers to embrace their dreams, goals and values and to put money in its proper perspective, to view it as a tool. Like any other tool, the user will need to understand its use, its strengths, its weaknesses and the steps required to maximize its useful life. In life and money I hope to provide those steps in a way that inspires the reader to learn more.
