80 I CHAPTER FIVE

                                                fun along the way. I have to tell you, Robert thinks big. He thinks
                                                the world is his island! When it comes to selling books, he could be
                                                right. And his determination to educate people financially hastaken
                                                on global dimensions. Rightly so. It's a global problem. But the
                                                solutions can start with you, and with us.
                                                    We're a good team, Robert and I. I finally found someone who
                                                thinks asbig as I do. And don't fall for Robert's "Donald Trump builds
                                                skyscrapers, and I have a duplex" or some nonsense like that. He's
                                                highly accomplished, very successful and he is most definitely a
                                                global thinker.

                                                What Motivates You? ·

                                                    But let's focus on something more important - namely, what is
                                                the most important thing to you? Is it your family? Their well-being?
                                                Their future and yours? Then you're reading the right book. Robert
                                                and I both have things that are very important to us. We've been
                                                willing to go to great lengths for them. Therefore, we believe we
                                                have something in common with all of you.
                                                    Suppose your family and your well-being is threatened. What do
                                                you do? You prepare yourself, you equip yourself for what might
                                                happen.
                                                    I don't want to be a financial fearmonger, but I have to tell you
                                                that things aren't looking so great. Our financial security is shaky.
                                                Just because you can shop at Saks today or online tonight doesn't
                                                mean that everything is just fine and that there's nothing to worry
                                                about. Don't fall for that comfort-zone happy state. Don't be
                                                shortsighted.
                                                    Robert has spotlighted some very real problems that face us all
                                                today:
                                                       1) A growing trade deficit
                                                       2) A growing national debt.
                                                       3) A falling dollar
                                                       4) Baby boomers without money
