Mary Ivins weaves together her inspiring survival story with how she transformed herself and her relationship with money to become a Certified Financial Planner. Using herself as an example, she walks the reader through useful steps for developing solid financial security. Ivins' book is much more than the usual steps for becoming wealthy." Dr. Al Siebert, author of The Survivor Personality.
