      Dedication

      This book is dedicated to Mother Tanksely who gave me most of the materials. Mother Tanksely has been an inspirational in my life. I have learned a lot from her she really have great wisdom and knowledge. As we talk on different issues, her age shows the insight she has obtained over the years. As I think back on some of her words she is truly blessed with Grace, Wisdom and knowledge from the Lord.

      I also dedicated this book to my mom Pearly Wilson. She has always talked to me about saving for a rainy day. If only I had listened to her wisdom I would be in a better financial position today. We have the power to change our lives and have control over our money. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. Matt 6:21

      To my father-in-law Homer Rupert my mentor. Whenever I had an issue with anything he would take me to the bible, he would say, Here is where our answer lies. He taught me if we turn to God for the answer and trust in him he has all ready solved our problems we just have to be patient and we will be blessed. Homer taught me a great lesson before he died. That lesson was to get my house in order. When he died my mother-in-law did not have to do any thing. He had every thing set in place for her. This made her life much easier when he passed. Thanks to these people and their influences in my life which made it possible for me to write this book.

      Prayer:

      Dearly Heavenly Father this book is written out of love and care for those who are hurting financially and spiritually. The poor, the young people, who are growing up to face a world of much disappointment, hurt and pain in their lives. Dear Lord let this book shed some light of wisdom and knowledge and understanding on how to live a better life. The scripture says in Proverb 4:5 Get wisdom! Understand on how to live a better life. God my prayer is that all who read this book will be richly blessed in the name of Jesus. Amen

      Take control

      This book is written to enlighten you to take control of your life, money and plan for the future. If we can acquire some knowledge of how to spend, save and invest our money we will be able to live comfortably while leaving a nice nest egg for our children. We should all ways try to leave the next generation a little better. The bible says to leave an inheritance to your children and your children’s children.

      If we can understand the power of money how to use it positively, you can set up an empire. Such as Donald trump, Bill Gates just a few men that started with nothing and ending up owning major business. You can have the same thing just a little hard work and discipline will carry you a long way. I am hoping the information you get from this book will give you wealth of knowledge of using your money much wiser.

      This book is gear on a Christian base to help you be a better steward with what God have left you with. We have a mint here on earth but if we do not take good care of the environment, our homes and take control of our finance we will lose it. Use what God have given us or we will lose it to greedy money hungry people such as the different loan companies, high interest’s banks, credit cards companies and the political arena that have the power to change the way we live by changing the laws of the land. If we do not speak up for what is right then we will lose our rights. But if we pull together as a community, invest in our on stores, gas station and other business. Yes we can make a different in our neighborhood when we come together as people who wants better for our children future.

      We have the power to change our own lives take control of our money through the word of God. Read the bible and ask God to direct your path under the spirit of the Holy Ghost. You will see through out this book if we are going to achieve our goals we must seek God. We must think, plan, set goals, save put back an emergency fund and take charge of your future. Taking priority over your life and getting rid of the heavy burden that weighing you down which could be bills, family issues, money or just plain stinking thinking.

      We need some Christian foundation, understanding on how to handle different issues, such as connecting with God, Paying bills, how to budget, and put family first. Once you get your priority in order setting goals and starting paying cash for all of your items you will see how much more money you will save and have to spend on family.

      The bible says: In Proverbs 22:7 The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is the servant of the lender. (KJV) No one should be a servant to another person because lack of knowledge. We have the same power and the same chance to have what everyone else has.

      I was born in Houston Mississippi a little small town 30 miles south of Tupelo Mississippi. We live there until I was four years old then we move north to Indianapolis, Indiana. My dad had come up before we did to stay with his brother until he got a job and a place for us to stay, a year later he sent for us. I am the second oldest out of four children. There was my older brother Luther, then me, my youngest brother Samuel and my sister Melody.

      My childhood life was all right I guess. However, we didn’t have what most of the kids had in our neighborhood for clothes we were wearing hand me downs. We did not have the latest name brand clothes or those special Tennis shoes, but we were clean. I can remember we got tennis shoes when school started and kept them though the year
