The "Thousandaire" status equates to financial wellness. By completing a series of financial steps, one confers the status. These tasks challenge readers to take their finances to the next level. We all went to school and learned the 3Rs: Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic, but no one ever taught us the ABCs of Money: ASSET MANAGEMENT, BUDGETING, CONTROLS. The Thousandaire Challenge is dedicated to helping you become an expert at the fundamentals, which will catapult your success in all future ventures. It sets a high standard for everyone to attain. Here is your definitive guide to prosperity. You'll learn to maximize your purchasing power, benchmark true financial health, and eventually become a Thousandaire. Stop harassing phone calls, declined credit applications, stress and anxiety due to lack. Increase your understanding of money, how to manage it, and how to avoid the debt trap. I grew up in the ghetto where poverty and lack grew, rampantly. I was the youngest of seven to a single mother, who worked three jobs. She didn't have time to teach us about money, so we had to learn what not to do, by observation. I vowed never again to succumb to poverty and lack.I later went on to receive Distinguished Military Honors and graduate Cum Laude with a BBA in Accounting from Prairie View A & M University of Texas with ZERO DEBT. Most of my adult life I've coached individuals to financial well being, and just before deploying to Iraq in 2003, I discovered the Thousandaire Principle. I introduced my troops to the precepts and they loved it, and I have been sharing the teachings ever since. Live with Power.
