This book came highly recommended from LinkedIn connections and I must say it didn't disappoint.I didn't finish the book yet but it has already changed my business money mindset. The logic is so simple and clear cut, Mike doesn't make you run through hoops to understand it.Simply stated, if you own a business and you find yourself strapped on cash (it's ok. we've all been there when we bought this book) then this book will show you a better way.Start actually seeing money from your business instead of continuing to be lost in a cycle of making money and using 95% of that for expenses. It's time your business pays you something after breaking your back for it for too many years.And I'll admit, I HATE money matters. I'm a copywriter and anything creative is my thing. Money? Math? I'm outta here before you can find the sum of 1+1. But I'm actually getting through this book and loving every minute. Why? Because Mike understands that Math Haters like me need the Math Talk wrapped in fun otherwise our ears are closed. So he packs in so much humor, I find myself chuckling at his wisecracks and down to earth tone. If a Math Money Hater can read it, you know it's gotta be cool.I also love his little action steps. I'll admit that I'm not doing every action as I go along (since I simply can't wait to read the next chapter) I do love that he broke it down like that and I can go back and do it one baby step at a time.I already opened a new bank account and did my instant assessment which wasn't so bad cuz I only recently started freelancing. I'm pumped to start my business on a solid road map, knowing that I'm gonna make MONEY FOR MYSELF. Cuz I have a rocking system in place to make sure of that.Thank you Mike for writing this! And making my Money Situation more manageable and hopeful looking.Cheers,Chaya Matty Appel
