Top 3 Value Bombs

1. You do not become successful. You are successful; success is in the process, not the destination.

2. To achieve financial freedom, you must establish a second machine, the money machine.

3. Claim your financial freedom; it is your birthright. Most of what you know about money is learned by observation, not formal education. Legacy is not just leaving things behind; it is leaving something meaningful within others.
