I spent 31 years on the side of the table that profits. This book puts you on yours: a simple system and a spreadsheet to decide what to buy, what to cut, and what to say when you call to lower a bill.
A company doesn't run on willpower. It runs on a few numbers someone checks every week. I learned that in 1998, two weeks from not making payroll. Your household can run on the same five numbers.
I sold pipe and water heaters to contractors on credit. I know how a sales pitch is built — I built them.
Plus the full table of contents, with page numbers.
Chapter 2 shows you how to find the bills you can cut, with 12 word-for-word phone scripts. Move the slider to see what a 3% cut would be worth in a year.
I started with one truck in 1987. In 1998 I lost $180,000 in one afternoon and came two weeks from not making payroll. That's when I started checking five numbers every Sunday night. In 2018 I sold the company. The next morning I bought forty suits.
No. It's education about spending and decisions. No stock, crypto, tax or legal advice.
The book opens soon. Leave your email and I'll send you the link the day it's live — one email, nothing else.
Chapter 1 gets you your rating — it's built to take about an hour. Setting up the spreadsheet takes a weekend. After that, about twenty minutes a week.
I sold at fifty-five and started the second half. The five numbers work at any age.
One household, one copy. Chapter 6 is written for the two of you.
No. It's a digital download, so all sales are final. If a file doesn't open or you paid twice, write to us and we'll fix it the same day.
I'll write once — the day the book opens. Until then, keep an eye on your five numbers.
