What follows is the Foreword I wrote for Orrin Woodward’s latest book. It’s a great read, and obviously one I would highly recommend. Congratulations on picking up this book. I guarantee you have never read anything like it. What follows in these pages is jolting, thoroughly researched, and painstakingly reasoned out. At first it may…

The following excerpt was taking from the book, Financial Fitness, written by co-author, Chris Brady. There are some financial problems you need to beware of: the danger zones of personal finance.

Chris Brady and Orrin Woodward went above and beyond the call of duty when they created the Beyond Financial Fitness Program. With decades of experience building businesses, investing, managing personal finances, developing security and prosperity for their families, and mentoring others to do the same, it’s safe to say that Brady and Woodward have the credibility…
