“Tom Young lays out a solid approach for all of us. Many authors can write but Tom writes and thinks along with the reader. This is a must read.”

- Jody, BOO YAA! MMP

“With being a Former Congressman I have met Tom over the year through the people I work with. I have found that he has a great way of thinking about money, how to manage it and shows you that what he says can be mathematically proven. He is a man that can make anyone understand the way you can make your money work better for you. He is someone that is above the rest and I feel that this book will be a great read and will help anyone get ahead in their life if they just listen and do what he tells them to do.”

-The Honorable Bob McEwen
