We’ve finally finished the editing and reformatting of How To Be Rich and Happy and as you read this it is winging it’s way to the printer. The picture you see on the left is the front cover as it will be on the book. By the end of June we should have the first 3,000 copies in our hands and the Rich and Happy Giveaway will be underway.
Today I wanted to share something with you that a few people have commented on and asked about. On the back cover of the promotional copy we have been distributing to the media and people we think may be able to help us, is a very condensed version of How To Be Rich and Happy. In fact, if you can apply ALL of the things on the list to your life you probably don’t need the book!
I’ve been asked where it came from and what’s it all about. The truth is it started life as an idle doodle when I had some spare time a couple of years ago. Every now and then I’d think of something else and add it to the list.
Then almost by accident I saw a pattern emerging that you can now see below, so I doodled some more until it became almost a perfect inverted pyramid. There’s no deep philosophical meaning to the shape, it just looks kind of cool.
We’re looking to change the rules when the books arrive in June. If you’d like to know how, check out “If You Live By The Rules, You Die By The Rules” a post inspired after reading Trust Agents by Chris Brogan and Julien Smith.
