I share the story of an actor who is giving away his $714 million nest egg. He says he just wants a normal life and peace of mind? Would you still have peace of mind if you had millions to your name? If you aren't confident you could, then you may be sabotaging your ability to increase your wealth.
PLUS we talk about how you can leverage your unique knowledge by creating a course, writing an ebook or developing a membership site.
Questions this week:
Do you have any suggestions on what I could do 348 days in advance of a move to another state?
I'm creating a course. How long should an online course be?

If you feel like someone has done you wrong - listen in. How often I see people chasing the snake in their own lives. The company folds or you just simply get laid off. The immediate reaction may include anger, resentment, bitterness, and backstabbing. These lead to discouragement, frustration, guilt and depression. Be aware that all of these reactions and feelings focus on the past. Turning around and looking to the future opens up confidence, boldness, and enthusiasm.
Questions:
1. What does one do, when they finally realize, after 33 years in the wrong profession and now 55 years old, that they should have chosen a totally different profession?
2. My son is 16 and will be going off to college in a couple of years. His career aspiration is to own businesses. Do you think it is too early to get him some coaching/mentoring in this arena?
3. Hey there Dan, My friend and I are working through the 48 days book and we both are suffering from somewhat profound depression issues. We are currently working on those issues and wonder what the next step would be and how can we best utilize the material in the book?

A listener wants to know if it's possible to blend purpose and passion with making money. Not only is it possible - it's essential. Without purpose and passion you will burn out. Making money alone is not enough compensation for investing your time and energy.
Questions:
1. Is it possible to make money and stay true to your purpose?
2. They saw promise where I perceived uncertainty. They saw opportunity where I perceived deception.
3. I just need to let you know that I've used LinkedIn about 90% of the time in my career and it has been very efficient and effective.
4. I still don't get it, though. "what I love to do and do best" is writing software. That's not unique at all.
5. I'm in a rock band. How can we be more confident in our pricing and our worth?

College Graduates will be homeless slaves with massive debt...the story continues
Two years ago I wrote this piece that continues to get input. In this week's episode I share current questions from college graduates who feel trapped by virtue of their college degrees. But no one is trapped. We all have so many options to take our personal talents and move into our dream position.
I'm not dissing getting a college degree. I have more degrees than anyone needs, but not with the idea that it was going to get me a particular job. I have those degrees for the sole purpose of learning and engaging with others.
Questions:
I'm on day 25 of the 48-day plan, I sent introductions via Linked In, but now that I'm getting ready to send my resume and cover letter to these contacts, I'm realizing I can't send them through Linked In and their e-mail addresses aren't available. What do you recommend as my next step?
I've got a degree in teaching but don't want to be a teacher
I am a 45-year old attorney (married with four children) working for a non-profit making $48,000/year. I owe more in student loans than I did when I graduated 11 years ago.Should I go back to work for a toxic employer because I need the money?
My son has a 2 degrees, one in Communication Speech and one in Theater. He considers himself an actor and does short films in our state as a side which doesn't pay. He has $83,000 in school debt and can't see himself climbing out of the black hole anytime soon, if ever.

They say ignorance is bliss. And sometimes I hear from people who wish they had never had their eyes opened to bigger possibilities. Do you think it's time to give up on your dreams? Or do they keep pulling you to new adventures and new levels of success? Check out this week's quotation - yes, I think your dreams are "the blueprints of your ultimate achievements."
Questions this week:
1. What do you do when circumstances, family situations, etc. keep you from the things you would really like to do?
2. This past week has left me feeling hopeless and I'm tired of waking up every morning in my house with my parents. I'm also losing my motivation and just want to settle and give up on my stupid dreams
3. How do I do a job search if the position has already been posted?
4. "You just have to figure out what unique value you have to offer" - how do I do that? I just don't understand.
