Yeah!” —http://rainn.posterous.com/i-wrote-down-the-lyrics-to-john-mayers-say
1. He who dies with the most toys doesn’t win.
A lot of people mistakenly believe that if they could live like the small minority of wealthy people they see on television… They’ll tell you that life is defined by the sum of your material possessions and how “large” you live — whether you can afford it or not. Don’t believe them. The ironic truth is that a rich life is defined by the things money can’t buy.
2. Taking on debt today sacrifices your ability to make choices in the future.
Limit your debt obligations, you’ll not only maintain more control over your life as you get older, you’ll also avoid the chains that prevent you from ever attaining financial freedom.
3. You can achieve financial freedom regardless of how much money you make.
Don’t fall into the trap of thinking that one has to be “rich” to attain financial freedom. There are lots of people earning millions per year who aren’t financially free, just as it’s also true that there are folks earning less than $40,000 annually who are financially free.
4. Those who believe in personal responsibility control their own destiny.
It takes real courage and integrity to look inward and take responsibility for all of the troubles that are a direct result of your own making. When you take ownership for all the decisions you make in life, you build confidence and self-respect. From that confidence comes an inner-strength from knowing that you and you alone control your own destiny.
5. Slow down — life is a marathon, not a sprint.
One day you’re going to leave the nest and you’re going to want everything at once. Unfortunately, your paycheck will probably be such that, by the time you’ve finished deducting money to fund your retirement and other savings accounts, you simply aren’t going to be able to afford much. That means hard choices will have to be made — and so it’s going to be very important that you understand the difference between wants (like concert tickets or a big screen television) and needs (like groceries or the rent). Patience is a virtue. Rest assured that, over time, your salary will rise — and with it, so will your purchasing power.
6. Violating the natural order of life can be costly.
A big part of our financial success is based upon the decisions we make in life. As I see it, there are four key milestones in life: 1) getting a good education, either through college or via on the job training; 2) establishing your career; 3) marriage; 4) kids. If you follow those milestones in order, you’ll greatly increase your odds of achieving financial freedom. However, if you take them out of order, you’ll quickly discover that life not only gets more complicated, but also gets significantly more difficult financially.
7. The harder you work, the luckier you’ll get.
The real wellspring of success is found through lots of hard work coupled with a serious passion for whatever you do — so make sure you find a job that you really love. If you’re fortunate enough to do that, the odds are good that you’ll end up making your own luck.
8. You won’t be young forever, so take advantage of youth while you can.
Did you know that thanks to a little thing called compound interest, even folks with modest incomes have a good chance of becoming millionaires? That’s because, given enough time, compound interest becomes a force of monumental proportions; Albert Einstein dared to call it the most powerful force in the universe. That’s why it’s important to start saving as early as you can.
9. Always strive to spend less than you earn.
Remember that the easiest path to a life of financial freedom is to always spend less than you earn. Do that, and many of the other lessons I just shared with you will naturally take care of themselves.

A few weeks ago, I gave in to the ubiquity of George R. R. Martin’s best-selling fiction series “A Song of Ice and Fire,” the origin of the HBO series “Game of Thrones,” and picked up the first volume. I’m now somewhere in the recently published fifth volume, “A Dance With Dragons,” and I’m ready for an intervention. Please help. I feel as if I’m being stitched, nerve by nerve, into a possibly infinite tapestry. I want to put the book down, but if I do I’ll instantly forget who killed whom and why, who is related to whom and how, and who has broken troth and who remains trothful.
What is “A Song of Ice and Fire” about? Some say it’s a fantasy full of knights, tourneys, turncoats, direwolves, dragons and dirks, lightly salted with actual heroes. Some call it a potboiler full of cliffhanger soup. You could argue that it’s about heraldry and courtly fashion, for Mr. Martin never misses a chance to describe a costume, a banner, wine or a meal. The narrative intricacies mount and mount. “Plots within plots,” one of the characters thinks, “but all roads lead down the dragon’s gullet.”
It would be one thing if “A Dance With Dragons” was the final book in the series. But Mr. Martin has at least two more planned: “The Winds of Winter” and “A Dream of Spring.” Given his current rate of publication, they might come out in 2018 and 2026. I see no reason why the series should stop at seven. Surely Mr. Martin, like one of the “maesters” in his novels, is training a sworn circle of apprentices to continue “A Song of Ice and Fire” into the distant future.
Why do I keep reading? Because beneath Mr. Martin’s descriptive pyromancy, these are novels about characters bending under the force of worldly and unworldly circumstances, and Mr. Martin’s characters bend in interesting ways. I read to find out what happened to the heroine left behind a hundred pages ago. I read because if I don’t read, I’ll never get to the end, where real life resumes.
