Do NOT buy this book!   It isn't a book yet.  There's 95 pages of stuff, and maybe in the next few months I'll flesh it out a bit. Or maybe it will be years.  We'll see.

During my last kickstarter I offered it as a stretch goal.   So I am putting it here for those folks.   And, I figure, if somebody is willing to part with 15 bucks then they can look at an unfinished book too.

$15.00

Paul,

I know you told me not to buy it, but I couldn't help it. It was very important that I knew something. I thought I'd have to figure it out by reading it all, but you answered it early on at the end of one of the paragraphs right there in black and white, word for word what I wanted to know, and allowed me to enjoy reading the rest of it, which made me very happy that I gave you $25.00 for an unfinished book. BTW smooth adaptations, thank you.

I love you man.

Sincerely,
Evelyn

Paul,

It was on page 50, I was on a roll. I finished the book. So where is the forum thread for this book? I can not find it.

Wow, I'm the first one to post? ...Cool.

The alert for your last comment ended up in my spam folder so sorry it took so long to acknowledge it. I probably should check the spam folder more often. Lol

Thank you, Evelyn

Paul!

This so powerful and the mentality I try to approach stuff with:

He said “This is not a loan. This is a gift. If you happen to give me a slightly larger gift some day, I will re-gift it to somebody else in the family that would like to try their own business. But I wish to be clear: you owe me nothing.”



Also this is killing me and should be the new advertising campaign for KS:

every time a kickstarter is funded, a douchebag banker gets a kick in the nuts



I am just a couple pages in and already loving it.

Thanks!

Here's a few smooth edits:

Page 14, bottom line - "andy" should be "any."
Page 23, second paragraph - “Their gone!” Should be “They’re gone!”
Page 27, near the bottom - “result it that it does” should read “result is that it does”

Page 2 first paragraph

"I ended up going to a bank to a bank..."  

either you went to multiple banks, or you doubled your thought...
