Book Description
The question was easy enough: Just how do you become successful in life? The answer, offered by those already there, was not easy. Nevertheless, more than 200 celebrities from movie stars to astronauts, from baseball players to romance novelists, from rock musicians to progressive politicians, gave it their best shot. In the end, what Ron Stovall and Joe Kraus, co-authors of the new book The Famous & Successful: Their Advice for All of Us found was that there are many paths to being successful in life. At the same time they found that there were common threads to that success. They found that these general assessments, shared by the majority of successful people, can turn losers into winners, lives of despair to lives of hope, individuals once poor in body and spirit to people rich in outlook and opportunity. The book, which took 13 years to solicit and compile results, is in essence a guidebook for anybody who wants to be successful in whatever they do. Even just a quick reading, the authors say, can turn lives around and point their ambitions in the right direction. The job then would be to keep going and going and going. They will know they have arrived when the day someone else comes forward to ask them - just how do you become successful in life? Now, just how did this project come about? Why was it launched and how was it that so many celebrities participated? The answer to these questions is a story in itself and fully explained in the softcover, 150-page book. It is available through Amazon, Barns & Nobel and other major bookstores.

Book Description
Life Insurance: Will it Pay When I Die? By: Thomas W. Young “Tom’s book brings to light the proper information about money and financial products that we, the consumer, need to know. Tom is a consumer advocate and he truly will teach you through this book how to maximize your money decisions. This is a “must read” book for anyone wanting to get the most out of their money decisions.” –Jody Victor, Past President, IBOA “If there ever was a right book at the right time, this one is it. Tom makes the case that the right time for dealing with the complexities of life style and money is always now. Tom’s book manages to bring to your attention a way to rethink the economics of life style. The notion that we can stop working “whenever we want to” doesn’t stand a chance without applying the princes Tom provides to the equation.” --D. Clayton, DMD If you’re like most people, you spend more time and energy planning your vacations than your finances. Many people are uninformed about their monetary decisions because they don’t understand how things like economics, finances, insurance, interest rates, and banking work. So they usually leave these areas lives to the “experts.” But what if these so-called experts don’t even have a full grasp of these concepts? In these cases, handing our money over to them can have tragic results. In Thomas W. Young’s years of experience as an investment and retirement professional, he has seen many people’s lives completely changed for the worse by their lack of financial knowledge. He wrote Life Insurance: Will it Pay When I Die? with the hope of helping readers avoid making bad choices that could eventually lead to financial ruin. Readers will come away with a better understanding of the life insurance industry and better equipped to make wise, sound, and beneficial financial decisions.
