This book is designed for book clubs with the hope to inspire and encourage at-risk youths and gang members to be more open, transparent, and vulnerable about their life experiences, which can transpire to be a major healing process. La'Ron has been given an amazing opportunity while incarcerated to work alongside some amazing community partners, which has also shined light on a problem. There are those who wish to support incarcerated individuals but don't feel relatable or don't understand the gang culture which overpopulate prisons. This book is guaranteed to help close those unrelatable and generational gaps. La'Ron's goal is to have volunteers, mentors, facilitators, self-betterment clubs, etc. use this book as a guide to help create real, raw, relatable, and uncomfortable conversations. ______________________________ La'Ron was the first convicted lifer in the state of Nebraska who was allowed to visit young men under the age of eighteen at the Nebraska Correctional Youth Facility (NCYF). La'Ron and eight other men were the first adult lifers in the United States who were allowed to live at a youth penitentiary as Intentional Peer Supporters. ______________________________ A fraction of the proceeds from this book will be used to buy more of these books to send across the United States to our at-risk youth--to places such as youth organizations, group homes, alternative schools, juvenile prisons, county jails, and to requested women and men in adult prison.

Smart. Funny. Fearless."It's pretty safe to say that Spy was the most influential magazine of the 1980s. It might have remade New York's cultural landscape; it definitely changed the whole tone of magazine journalism. It was cruel, brilliant, beautifully written and perfectly designed, and feared by all. There's no magazine I know of that's so continually referenced, held up as a benchmark, and whose demise is so lamented" --Dave Eggers. "It's a piece of garbage" --Donald Trump.

Unfortunately, that means there’s no more rising—the only way to go is down. Every day, you see a story of someone who retired early and how they achieved that. This is how you know that FIRE is at its peak. Any investor knows that when you see the news in print, you cannot invest because it is too late. But it is usually a great time to sell. Investors try to forecast the future. Building true wealth is not just about making money. At some point, you have seen happy poor people and miserable rich people.

The central thesis of the book is that in order to evaluate monetary policy, one should have a clear idea about the characteristics and functions of money as it evolved and in its current form. That is to say that without an understanding about how money evolved as a social institution, what it is today, and what is possible to know about monetary phenomena, it is not possible to develop a meaningful ethics for money; or, to put it differently, to find what kind of institutional arrangements may be deemed good money for the kind of society we are in. And without that, one faces severe limitations in offering a normative position about monetary policy. The project is, consequently, an interdisciplinary one. Its main thread is an inquiry of moral philosophy and its foundations, as applied to money, in order to create tools to evaluate public policy in regard to money, banking, and public finance; and the views of different schools on those topics are discussed. The book is organized in parts on metaphysics, epistemology, ethics and politics of money to facilitate the presentation of all the subjects discussed to an educated readership (and not necessarily just one with a background in economics).
