Hardback. Etat : Good. Why aren't I as wealthy as I should be? Many people ask this question of themselves all the time. Often they are hard-working, well educated middle- to high-income people. Why, then, are so few affluent. For nearly two decades the answer has been found in the bestselling The Millionaire Next Door: The Surprising Secrets of America's Wealthy, reissued with a new foreword for the twenty-first century. According to the authors, most people have it all wrong about how you become wealthy in America. Wealth in America is more often the result of hard work, diligent savings, and living below your means than it is about inheritance, advance degrees, and even intelligence. The Millionaire Next Door identifies seven common traits that show up again and again among those who have accumulated wealth. You will learn, for example, that millionaires bargain shop for used cars, pay a tiny fraction of their wealth in income tax, raise children who are often unaware of their family's wealth until they are adults, and, above all, reject the big-spending lifestyles most of us associate with rich people. In fact, you will learn that the flashy millionaires glamorized in the media represent only a tiny minority of America's rich. Most of the truly wealthy in this country don't live in Beverly Hills or on Park Avenue-they live next door.…

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. This is the amazing story of who Ebony Magazine dubbed A Dynamic Duo and who Black Entertainment Television (BET) named one of the Most Inspirational Stories of 2013-the mother and son who exceeded everyone's expectations and carved their own path to success as the first mother and child to earn their doctorates together, from the same school on the same day. Born to an imprisoned teenager, Vickie lived a good life with her adoptive mother who loved her unconditionally, but whose staunch traditional beliefs about not talking to children about certain realities of life left Vickie vulnerable to boys who knew what to do with a child in a woman's body. Years before she could drive, drink, or vote, Vickie was raising a son and trying to figure out how to break the curse of incarceration and secure a future for her family. Instead of limiting herself to low expectations and becoming a statistic, she became Dr. Vickie McBride. As a small child, Maurice knew that Vickie was his mother, technically. Grandma was really mama, and Vickie was his best friend. Some of his fondest memories are of his childhood before Vickie left home, but some of his worst are of his life with Vickie, miles away from his mama. In Vickie's home, punishment for infractions, both real and imagined, was swift. Eventually, Maurice dropped out of high school, spent time in jail, and had a successful music career. However, the need for a good education grew as his career as a rapper faded. Despite the negative labels, he fought against his past mistakes and became more than anyone had imagined. He became Dr. Maurice McBride. Drs. Vickie and Maurice McBride came from nowhere and are now here, sharing their story of an unbreakable bond and incredible forgiveness that will motivate and inspire people of all ages for years to come.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. If you are among the many who think of billions, or a hundred thousand, or tens of millions of years ago as all just a very very long time ago, The Big Bang to Now: All of Time in Six Chunks will be an enlightening surprise. Terry Sissons divides time into six chunks - fewer numbers than are in a telephone number - to create a review of the 13.7 billion years of all of time. The surprise is that learning just these six chunks can transform one's understanding of time from grand confusion to quite amazing clarity. The Big Bang to Now is not packed with dense pages detailing what scientists have learned about our past. These details are important, but learning too much detail before one sees the big picture often leads not to knowledge and understanding but to bewilderment. The Big Bang to Now tells the story of time in less than 100 key events, and with a large amount of reassuring white space. Each page describes just one important event, like the Big Bang, the creation of our solar system, the emergence of life on Earth, man's first appearance. A facing page bullets important points and ongoing questions that are alternatively fun, fascinating, and thought-provoking. As a result, the book leaves the reader with a coherent structure within which new discoveries and learning can be fitted into the larger context. It also makes it possible to answer many questions without looking up the answers at all. Questions like: -Did early man hunt dinosaurs? -Was the universe ever completely dark? -Where did the atoms and molecules that make up our bodies come from? -Did hunter-gatherer societies have writing? -When did we start to use the wheel? Or start to wear clothes? Or domesticate animals? -Will Earth ever have another Ice Age? If so, when will it happen? How long will it last? -Why are some animals extinct? What causes extinctions at all? Whether you think our past can help us make better decisions for our future, or want to decide if the discoveries of science deepens or contradicts religious belief, it's a book that reveals a sometimes baffling, sometimes brutal, always amazing universe.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. It's a Bedroom not a Board Room provides communication skills for ambitious couples. As a psychologist for over 30 years, Dr. Lois Nightingale discovered that ambitious and outcome-focused couples often had more difficulty connecting with loved ones at home. When they faced challenges at work, they focused on a solution and found an answer. But these skills only seemed to increase problems at home. When they finally landed in therapy they were on the verge of ending another relationship, financing a divorce, or facing the thing they hated most: failure. It was as if they were trying to find their way around New York City with a map of Chicago. The map was accurate, but if misapplied it was frustrating, even dangerous. That's what many ambitious couples do when they use the work skills they've come to trust, at home in their personal relationships. Dr. Nightingale shares specific strategies she teaches driven personalities and their partners. Her communication tactics are presented against the backdrop of her own family's business history and her own personal relationship journey. Now you can read the tips she shares with clients who ask why their personal relationships are falling apart when they're so effective in other areas of their lives. Put these skills into practice and watch your relationship improve.…
