Get Back On Course to Your Unique Life with Money as Your Ally

New Book, "Ahoy, Money! How to Chart Your Course to Genuine Financial Freedom," Offers a Refreshing Alternative for Facing Practical Money Issues that Stress Us All Out

DURANGO, Colo., May 30 /Xpress Press/ -- Although the book's title, "Ahoy, Money! How to Chart Your Course to Genuine Financial Freedom," and its main character (a sea captain named Micke) are useful motivational analogies, this book is more than a lesson in navigating financial waters. "Ahoy, Money!" provides sensible, pro-active approaches toward achieving genuine relief from money worries and stress.

"This is the first book that helps readers become self-aware of their relationship to money and how to then make practical and constructive changes in all eight aspects of their finances. Learning how core values inform financial decisions helps individuals make the most of what they have -- which quiets their money worries. 'Ahoy Money' offers transformation through money -- not just more information about money," says author Paul Lemon.

The 218-page book entertains as it teaches; intermingling inspirational poems and stories with worksheets and checklists that help readers identify opportunities for financial improvement. For example, the chapter titled, "Avoiding Deadly Hazards," helps readers recognize high-pressure financial sales and product pitches that steer them off course financially.

"Ahoy, Money!" also helps readers:

-- Recognize money baggage (the causes of conflict and stress about money).

-- Take an honest financial inventory (actually assigning a concrete score to how they're doing in 8 aspects of money management -- Life Clarity, Document Organization, Cash Flow Awareness, Debt & Credit Management, Saving & Investing, Risk Management, Tax Planning, and Mortality and Estate Planning).

-- Prioritize and make change based on what they really want and not what others say they need.

-- Determine how much monthly savings are required under different retirement options.

-- Set up a simple budget that makes this new way with money "stick."

"Too many people are passengers on their own financial ship," Lemon says. With the help of "Ahoy, Money!" readers can reclaim their ship's helm and traverse the Sea of Money.

"Ahoy, Money!" offers hope and practical success with money. For those who want to expand their money mastery skills Lemon offers his "Ten Weeks to Financial Awakening Personal Financial Management Course." The "Ten Weeks Course" tackles the nitty-gritty details of organizing financial papers, setting up a budget using Quicken(R), managing investments, buying insurance, and much more.
