Looking back on my life I realize I gained a very significant amount of extremely helpful knowledge through the life lessons I experienced.

Those Life-Lessons are more important than the formal education I received.

I also realized that if I had this knowledge earlier in life, my life would have been much easier.

Each one is directly related to what everyone encounters on a day-to-day basis. Each one is immediately helpful.

This book is significant for anyone. 17 year-olds as well as those in their 20s, 30, 40', 50's, 60s and on.

The specifics in this book will help you recognize numerous situations and help you in making decisions about life rather than look back at 71 and wonder ". . .why is all this knowledge valuable only to me. I wish someone would have talked to me {and I would have listened} about these "Valuable Lessons of Life."
