Beskrivelse

What do you hold on to when everything you built starts to fall? Three friends. One impossible idea. Thirty million dollars raised overnight. And a question none of them thought to ask until it was almost too late. In the summer of 2017, Charlie, Jack, and Nik leave MIT believing they can change how the world moves money. Within months, they are exactly the kind of company that gets written about. Within two years, they are nearly destroyed by it. A Story About Everything That Almost Broke Hold On for Dear Life is a literary fiction novel about idealism, hubris, and resilience - and the long, difficult work of finding your way back to why you started. What waits inside: * A friendship that almost doesn't survive success * A love story three years in the making * A market crash, a hack, a kidnapping * A debut novel by a real Wall Street and crypto executive Have you ever bet on something the world told you to walk away from? Have you ever built something with the people closest to you and watched the building change them? This isn't a book about cryptocurrency. It's a book about what survives when everything else burns - and what it costs to find out. Among the best literary fiction books written at the intersection of ambition, friendship, and financial ruin - this is fiction for adults who know that the hardest losses aren't always measured in money. If Normal People stayed with you, if Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow lingered for weeks, this is the next book you cannot put down.

episode Rogue Vengeance (Colt Hawkins) cover

Rogue Vengeance (Colt Hawkins)

Rogue Vengeance: A Colt Hawkins Thriller (Book III)    Paramilitary Operations Officer Colt Hawkins and Task Force 24 are stranded behind enemy lines in a Russian-Chinese black site when the White House aborts their CIA mission, Sky Thunder, fearing exposure of a weapons platform that could blind U.S. satellites more than mission failure. Team member Jesse Williamson vanishes into a Chinese black prison. CIA Director Marcus Durham is ousted; successor Dwight Prescott buries the fallout. Disavowed, Colt retires to Montana to marry NASA Director Dr. Liberty Starr, vowing to escape the shadows. But betrayal runs deep. Presidential Advisor Landon Halston, China's secret asset, orchestrated the sabotage. On Colt's wedding day, Senior Colonel  Shun Chang's death squad strikes- leaving Liberty comatose and Colt fueled by rage. Rogue, Colt hunts the espionage network infiltrating U.S. universities and tech sectors, exposing compromised intel behind Sky Thunder. Framed as a suspect, former teammates Bob Beard and Mike Rose extract him. Proof reinstates Task Force 24 as assassins invade American soil. The hunt spans Spain (gutting Chang) to Taiwan amid Beijing's "exercises." D.C. impeachment erupts over the cover-up. With Jesse in hell and an invasion looming, Colt launches a brutal rescue mission in China. Outnumbered and bloodied, they escape as missiles arc toward Taiwan. The President resigns; Speaker Kandyce Morgan ascends amid U.S. asset strikes. Politics crumbles to war. Colt didn't choose it- but rogue vengeance sparks global inferno. Series Overview: Gritty tales of the CIA Special Activities Division's elite paramilitary operators. Former Tier One Colt Hawkins- honorable, battle-tested- leads unbreakable teams through covert ops, espionage, and sacrifice against global evils. Genres: Thriller, Action/Adventure, Special Ops, Strong Women Leads, Paramilitary, CIA.📖 Available on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4uXqDbj [https://amzn.to/4uXqDbj]

episode Numeral M: Volume II cover

Numeral M: Volume II

In my previous book, Numeral M, I shared techniques to help potential homebuyers meet their savings goals. Numeral M: Volume II continues with more ”All In” and “Split It” techniques to save larger amounts from $7,800 to as much as $20,800 in one year. New “Bi-Weekly” savings plans have also been added in simple language to meet the needs of everyone regardless of their pay schedule. Discipline is the only requirement. You can do this, don’t give up. A little about me … I was born and raised in St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands. I have worked in the mortgage compliance industry for over seventeen years, the last two as a Regulatory Analyst and Advisor. I am also certified as a CFCP and a MCPC. Throughout my entire career, I have come to understand that there is such a tremendous need for simplified educational materials as reflected in this book. My readers have requested that I create a simple, easy to understand way to save. This book gives you just that, using actual techniques and numbers. I leave it up to you, my readers, to choose which ones will work for you and go for it. Remember to discipline oneself and don’t give up! If this book is able to help just one person, it was worth it! See you on the next read and many blessings on your savings goal journey! 📖 Available on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4dW28oR [https://amzn.to/4dW28oR]

Expanding one's mind into learning before doing is an excellent idea and way to go. This book is not only a great asset to you, the potential tenant, but also to the landlord. It will provide helpful insight on certain criteria that you need to know prior to becoming a tenant. A little about me… I was born and raised in the beautiful U.S. Virgin Islands. I have worked in the mortgage compliance industry for over 17 years, the last two as a Regulatory Analyst and Advisor. I am also certified as a CFCP and a MCPC. Throughout my entire mortgage compliance career, I have come to understand that there is such a tremendous need for simplified educational materials as reflected in this book, for first-time home buyers or anyone planning to own a home. I felt that it was my obligation to help educate anyone planning to purchase a home or property, by providing them with the information they may not have known or have heard of in an easy-to-understand way. My hopes to all of my readers is that you use the insights provided in this book to take the reins on your purchase. Go into your potential purchase with knowledge and understanding, remembering to never be afraid to ask questions or question something that does not look right. Always trust your gut! To my readers thank you for stopping by and I wish you many blessings always on your journey! See you on the upcoming read! 📖 Available on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3RKzxdw [https://amzn.to/3RKzxdw]
