Mic Drop Moments:

🎤Trevor at (01:56) - 30 million books sold. That’s incredible.

🎤Sharon at (04:25) - My hand took off across the top of the page and wrote “Why not?” And that is still my philosophy today.

🎤Sharon at (08:28) - If instead of spending your time for money, if you invest your time to buy, build or create assets that generate money, that’s the pathway to financial freedom. My most favourite phrase on earth is “Assets are sexy!”

🎤Sharon at (13:05) - Sometimes you have to close the door for another door to open. Sometimes you have to close a door in your life to allow space for new opportunities.

🎤Sharon at (13:55) - When you are out there seeking employment pay attention to who you are, what you want and how you spend your time. Because sometimes you have to close the door for other doors to open.

🎤Sharon (16:02) - This is 2009, when we passed the credit card act which prevents credit card companies from soliciting college student bills.

🎤Sharon at (17:32) - Everybody watching and listening, you are perfect just the way you are. God created you, you are the only one he created like you.
