  The Forest Pilot - A Story for...

  The November sun that had been red and threatening all day, slowly disappeared behind a cloud bank. The wind that had held steadily to the south for a week, now shifted suddenly to the northeast, coming as a furious blast. In a moment, it seemed, the mild Indian Summer breeze was changed to a fierce winter gale. 
  	The little schooner yacht that had been riding in the bay not more than a half mile from the jagged, rocky shore line, began dancing about like a cork. For a swell had come driving in from the ocean just as the wind changed, and now the two tall masts waved back and forth, bending in wide sweeps before the gale. Unfortunately for the little craft the change of the direction of the wind exposed it to the storm’s full fury. 
  	The captain, a weatherbeaten old Yankee who had sailed vessels of his own as well as those belonging to other people for forty years, was plainly worried. With a glass in his hand he scanned the shore line of the bay in every direction, occasionally giving a sharp order to the four sailors who hurried about the deck to carry out his commands. 
  	The only other persons on the yacht were a man and a boy who had been sitting together beside the forward mast when the wind changed. The man was a tall, straight figure, with the erect carriage that sinewy, muscular men who are accustomed to hard work retain well into old age. His face, with its leathery skin, which contrasted sharply with his iron gray beard, was softened by a pair of deep blue eyes—the kind of blue eyes that can snap with determination on occasion, in contrast to their usually kindly expression.

  The world has changed.  
  The antiquated concepts of money, savings, and retirement are no longer valid. The tired advice of diversify, set it and forget it, or invest early, often and always, has been tried, and it has failed.  
  Rather than scrimping and saving or grinding and hustling while you wait for one day, someday, Money Unmasked shows you a radically different and reliable approach to creating an exciting and compelling future without compromise.    
  Money Unmasked unveils the truth about making, keeping, and growing your money and enjoying life along the way. Rather than trading time for money or speculating and taking risks, Money Unmasked shows you how to plug financial leaks and tap into hidden capital so you can utilize the Cycle of Creation to profit up front and take control of your financial future. 
  Gunderson unveils an entirely new philosophy, a new way of being that can change your family’s financial destiny while immediately improving your quality of life—since you keep more of the money you make without cutting back. 
  By tapping into your Money Persona, you see beyond the constraints of scarcity, you can accelerate results, reduce risk, have more energy, and start making better financial decisions. And by learning how to profit from your ideas up front—without risking or borrowing a single dollar but instead making money on the buy—you can collect a quick win on your ideas and start creating immediate cash flow. You can lower risk, improve return, and be profitable from day one. 
  If you are ready to fully understand money, create wealth, and live a life you don’t want to retire from, it’s time for Money Unmasked.
