Book
Book: Building Enduring Wealth For Retirement. A guide for achieving financial independence and for creating a faith-based financial plan.
Book Synopis
Each chapter of the book addresses one component of the WealthBuilder Mindset as it relates to retirement planning. The goal is to help readers create a systematic and repeatable process so that they retire “to something” instead of “from something.” Each chapter introduces tools for readers to open their eyes to financial blind spots related to retirement living
Throughout the book, I will also reference wisdom taught by the greatest financial planner ever. His name is Jesus Christ. To the best of my ability, I ask Him for advice on all my plans. He has never failed me. He’s the one who gives me true wisdom, patience, and guidance in my personal life and professional career. In that spirit, I will illustrate to the reader that WealthBuilder Mindset gets a major boost should you allow The Wonderful Counselor to participate in your planning and decision-making.
This is not a religious book. It is a “how-to” book. I pray that the words of scripture mentioned herein will support the WealthBuilder Mindset and that the references will give you inspiration and foundational guidance for your journey. As it is written: “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV).
