Suze Orman's Twelve Steps

Now without starting with the nitty-gritty, I want to introduce to one of my many money gurus I follow and, you guessed it, a main contributor in O and on the Oprah show. I found these steps while searching through Oprah's website and feel like Suze's Twelve Steps to Wealth are a good place to start.

I would like to take the time now to talk about why a person would consider to be wealthy. Wealth comes in many different forms, not only monetary wealth. And as always wealth is totally measured by our own definition. We choose to have abundant lives of wealth, love and joy...no one else chooses this for us. With wealth we are making the right choices in our lives and are able to give back to our communities. We are living authentic lives!!

For me basically, when I got to a stage where I had a two year-old child to take care of, rent to pay, living on my own in a country thousands of miles away from the only home I had known and the rain was pouring down as I waited for the bus to come...I had to make a choice. I could let all of this get to me, stress out and feel like the victim here or get over it and figure out a way that I would never get to this stage in my life ever again.

So each person that I have met since has brought me new ideas and books that have led to new ideas and inspirations. Here is one of Oprah's people that I would like to share with you. Enjoy and take a good look at the Twelve Steps Suze Orman has to offer. Tell me what you think. We can have a coffee & discuss our wealthy topic (this all said with a very New York accent :-).
