BOOK REVIEW
WHAT WE DO
The arrival of Covid-19 and the pandemic changed the world. I had no idea how much it would change my life. The company I worked for faced problems never seen before. Suddenly, my co-workers and I were laid off. Health insurance and many other economic concerns confronted me immediately. Most difficult of all was a divorce I did not anticipate. Financially I was devastated. After working all my life, I never thought that I would face such difficult challenges .I also went through drastic changes emotionally. At times I felt like my problems were insurmountable. Fortunately, I found Michael O’Brien and read this book. Mike’s clear thoughts and common-sense approach helped me alter my thinking. Once I met Mike and his staff, I started seeing that there are financial solutions. His guidance made me realize that there are many ways to approach and solve my problems. I sometimes re-read portions of his book to get on track again with positive thinking. I’m so grateful for his efforts and advice.
