Why aren’t you dead yet?
“The Noticer” by Andy Andrews:
Six points to Willow, a
seventy-six year old lady, who
had given up hope that she
had anything left to
contribute. (See chapter 6, pp.
83–85).
1. God has a purpose for each person
2. You won’t die until that purpose is fulfilled
3. If you are still alive, you haven’t completed what you were put on
earth to do.
4. If you haven’t completed what you
were put on earth to do, your very purpose hasn’t
been fulfilled.
5. If your purpose hasn’t been fulfilled, then the most important part of your life is still ahead.
6. You have yet to make your most important
contribution.
ARE YOU LIVING WITH PURPOSE?
Four Ways God Will Not Use Money in Your Life
IF I ONLY HAD MORE $$$
God doesn’t use money to:
1) To cause fear and anxiety in your life.
2) To divide spouses, family, or friends.
3) To insulate you from problems.
4) To raise your standard of living or to look down upon others.
World’s way versus God’s Way
The Worldly Purposes for Money
1. Buy whatever we want: Toys, toys, and toys!
2. Use it to measure our success over others.
3. Find security.
4. Gain independence - get out from under authority.
5. Simple acquisition - get as much as possible.
God' Purposes for Money
1. Provide for our needs.2. Confirm direction to your life. 3. Fellowship to bring Christians together. 4. Demonstrating supernatural power. 5. Used for the Three T’s: Tool, Test, Testimony
4 Bad Habits that lead to ruin
BAD HABIT #1: Discontentment
BAD HABIT #2: No Budget/ No Plan
BAD HABIT #3: Failure to understand basic economics
BAD HABIT #4: Too much debtBad habits destroy wealth!
Is the world corrupting your thoughts?
“Money is the root of all evil.”
“God helps those who help themselves.”
“Being poor brings me closer to God”
“Riches provide evidence for God’s blessing.”
“Problems are the evidence of sin in your life”
None of these are BIBLICAL…
Four foundational beliefs
These are four common beliefs after interviewing over 100 faith-based millionaires
1. God Created Everything
3. We Are God’s Trustees
2. God Owns Everything!
To become a millionaire you MUST think like one!Are you a:
1. Passionate Income Earner –doing what you love
2.Generous Giver – using God’s money to bless others
3. Wise Investor – carefully multiplying the wealth entrusted to you
4.Cautious Debtor - committing to only use debt as a last resort
5.Prudent Spender – spending only on things in line with your values
It’s tough to be proficient in all 5 areas without a team. Who’s on your team?
To become a millionaire focus on these 5 characteristics…
In 1960, a man named Srully Blotnickbegan a study of 1,500 people over 20 years. After 20 years 1,057 remained,
83 were millionaires. Top 5 Characteristics:
1. Persistence
2. Patience
3. Willing to handle both the “nobler and the pettier” jobs

Invest like a millionaire
Faith-Based Millionaires typically
invest in:
• Stocks – large cap, mid cap, small
cap, international, and emerging
markets
•Fixed Income – bonds
• Real Estate
• Precious Metals
• Private companies
Changes for 2011: Become a cautious debtorMost Faith-Based Millionaires:
• Use debt cautiously – as last resort
• Only if you have means today to
pay back.
• Restructure current finances to get
out of debt much faster…
• Often borrow from “themselves”
instead of from banks, mortgage
companies, and other financial
institutions.
•View debt in a negative light
Changes for 2011: Become a prudent spenderFaith-Based Millionaires typically:
• Buy items in line with morals
• Are willing to pay for value
• Comparative shop
• Don’t often purchase for “status”
• Often reuse, buy discounted, or even used.
• Become wealthy by controlling both sides of the balance sheet: income and spending.
• Want to increase spending? Increase your income first. Spend less than you make…
Try to view each spending decision in light of your net worth. Will this purchase increase or decrease my wealth. Will it provide sufficient value?
Lesson 1: Millionaire MindsetChanging habits, changing mindsets!
False belief 1: “My success happens at someone else’s expense.”
Discontinue habits that are destroying wealth…
Create habits that move you closer to financial freedom…
Look at past, examine present, project your future…
Abundance versus scarcity…
Lesson 2: Build a proper financial foundation False belief 2: “I should buy term and invest the difference”.
Instead I will show you how the rich buy no/low commission dividend paying whole life insurance to maximize the cash value and retire tax free!

How to find the ideal market, using the right message, communicated with the proper media, utilizing the correct measurement.
Lesson 5: Where to invest - morally
False belief 5: “My 401k or IRA is the best place to save - who cares if it violates my faith and values?”
Instead we will look at why mutual funds, IRA, 401Ks, and annuities are horrible investment vehicles and what you can do about it!
How to align your faith, values, and morals in the investment process.
