Many of you have read the About the Millionaire Nurse page above which gives an overview of the origin of this blog and my mission.
I want to spend a few minutes of your time on my goals and techniques:
- Motivate: I want to give my readers the reasons to go to the trouble, yes I know it is a lot of trouble, to get a handle on their finances.
- Educate: I want to give my readers the tools to help them reach their financial goals.
- Castigate: If you need embarrassing, yelled at-yes I will even stoop to using guilt-to get you motivated.
- Masturbate: Yes, it rhymed, I needed to wake you up, and thinking about personal finance is sometimes something you do when you are alone, and in the dark too.
- Renovate: If you are like me, what you are doing now, may not work as well as it should. Be open to new, different and improved ways to manage your money.
I think that is enough of that.
So what are the main barriers to my effort?
I think the main barriers are twofold:
- Getting the word out-you can’t help those who don’t know you exist-so send the link to this blog to all your friends and co-workers.
- Earning your trust-this I can only do by providing you with information that you find useful/helpful in your quest to get your family/personal finances in control and helping you to learn to build wealth. I will try to be consistent and persistent.
Seth Godin, the author and leadership guru, in his blog this week, had a post on “The People you should listen to.” I agree with his assessment that many people listen to folks whose agenda is different from yours-so be careful who you select for this honor.
If there is anything I can do to help satisfy your concerns about my agenda, then let me know. This is a two-way street and I am open to suggestions and constructive criticism.
