Acknowledgments
None of us can claim sole discovery of everything we have learned in life. Most of what I’ve learned as a student and share in this book comes from what I’ve been given from various mentors, teachers, and business partners. It seems that people were placed within my circle at important times so that I could receive vital lessons along the way.
Many people have mentored me personally. Others I have admired from afar. To those who have helped me personally, I wish to say a word of thanks.
Thanks to Brett Eliason and Noah Davidson for their mentorship in paper assets over the years.
Thanks to Robert and Kim Kiyosaki and the Rich Dad Advisors for lessons of context. I feel privileged to serve on the Advisor team.
Thanks to Mike Denison and Alfred Quinn for their contributions to this book. Mike and Alfred help me to say what I want to say when I can’t find the words.
Thanks to Mona Gambetta for sharing her talent and expertise in the creation of this book. Making the jump from teaching to writing was a challenge for me. Mona made it possible.
Thanks to Cindy Geddes and Jennifer Costanza for proofing and editing.
