Money Lessons for a Lifetime

Money Lessons for a Lifetime is a book you'll read for pleasure as well as personal improvement. Jim Jorgensen's heartfelt counseling, tell-it-like-it-is style, and real-life "tales from the front" keep you turning pages to discover more and more about how easy it is to grow wealth. You'll find yourself asking. "Why haven't I done that?" The answer to that question, according to Jorgensen, is always: "You can". Jorgensen vividly illustrates how people who have made some terrible mistakes got back on the road to prosperity again. You'll read stories about the power of the stock market that will make you vow never to succumb to the temptation of selling your stocks during a decline. You'll marvel at examples of pre-tax dollars invested in a 401(k) plan that double in value after the first year. Jim Jorgensen wants to share with you a few of the simple lessons about money he's learned along the way, from his father, from the rich farmers of his youth ("who paid with cash and drove big Cadillacs"), from the hundreds of people who have attended his financial seminars and have shared their stories with him. Money Lessons for a Lifetime isn't fancy advice for people with bundles of cash to invest. It's for those of us who want to commit to wealth, to grow rich, and to stay happy at the same time. Underlying all Jim Jorgensen's tales and anecdotes are eight specific steps to financial security, based on moderation and common sense. Follow them, make them part of your lifestyle, and you will be on the road to wealth for a lifetime.
