In today’s society wealth seems to be measured by how big your house is, how many cars you have, and what kind of designer clothes you wear. It seems our success is measured by how rich we look. Many of us have used excessive debt to fund that image and consequently have found ourselves on a never-ending tread mill-keeping up with all our loan payments. In his debut book, Mastering Money Management, Steven Vanderhoof opens our eyes to effective money management and how real wealth is accumulated. He provides an easy to understand format for diagnosing your individual circumstances and articulates a solid framework to build upon to effectively Master Money Management.

Hi!
I'm 14 years old, and I love to write and have always been told I havea great talent for it. I wanted to get some opinions on some of my ideas for books, so I'm posting some of my best summaries. Tell me which ones sound the best and if they are good!
Thanks!

Welcome to the Jungle: Sophie Ferraris, daughter of the top modeling agent in the world, lives a glamorous life in NYC until her mother’s agency gets caught in a national controversy when two of the models die of anorexia, and Sophie is caught between speaking up for what she believes in and standing behind her mother. (Present-day New York City)

Vanity Crash-When fifteen-year-year old reluctantly spotlighted Anne, eldest daughter of the wealthiest family in the small town of Bourne, New York, finds evidence that her family’s immense wealth is the result of murder and lies, she and her new friend Celia must solve a mystery of time, beauty-and furtive murder.
(1940s Bourne, New York)

Blonde Secrets (Series) - Maggie and Madison, two rival sisters at their prestigious high school, are forced to band together when they witness the murder of a coach. (Present day Washington, DC)
Hi!
Thank you for all the people that have answered this and given me feedback.
I wanted to ask someone, though, about something.
Christine H, can you please give me a little more detail? I really appreciate your constructive criticism, but I want to know what I could do to make them better. I mean, honestly, they are the least cliche ideas I've heard, in my opinion. I've never in my life read a book like Welcome to the Jungle, Vanity Crash, or Blonde Secrets, so I was just wondering what it was about them that made them so cliche.
I'm not mad or upset or anything, I just really want to know more to make them better!

You have some good ideas there, but I think Christine is thinking that each of your ideas are one book, when they really are several.

Here's the rundown on writing. Make sure that your family and friends are not just paying you lip service when they say your writing is great and you have a talent. From what I see in your ideas, you have a pretty good grasp on the English language, spelling and grammar.

First you have to have a plot. Nevermind the characters for now. The plot and the point of view POV are two of the most important parts of a novel, or short story.

Once you have that down, then you'll think about who and what your characters are. You’ll need a protagonist and an antagonist. Do you know what those mean? Will one be a female? Will one be a male? Maybe they’ll both be either female or male.

What you’ll need to do is get your hands on a book about writing a novel. Go to your bookstore or library and look one up. I have over $300.00 dollars invested in books that are helpful to a writer. You will also need to have a firm grasp on the English language in spelling and grammar.

Once you write your book, you’ll want to make sure that it’s edited properly. NEVER let a family member read your work unless they can give you an honest opinion. Lip service does neither you nor your writing any good. You’ll need an honest opinion.

You’ll need a copy of Writer’s Market. In there you will find literary agents, both their snail mail and email addresses. You will have to write a query letter and give the agent a synopsis of the story. Know this: Any mistakes in grammar or spelling will be an automatic reject. This also goes for your manuscript.

The books you buy from a bookstore or borrow from a library regarding how to write should also include how to format your manuscript and a sample of a query letter.

There’s a lot more to it than just sitting down and writing a story.

Good Luck!

THE BILLIONAIRE WHO WASN'T
[How Chuck Feeney Secretly
Made and Gave Away a Fortune]

This book is about a man that made billions of dollars, just to it away. He donated apprx 4 billion (All of his wealth) to charity. This guy now buys his suits off the rack, uses a plastic bag for a briefcase, sports drugstore spectacles, wears a $15 plastic watch, and flies coach. He owns no house and no car. He wonders aloud about the need for more than one pair of shoes. When he's in New York, he likes to dine on chicken pot pies at grubby midtown dives.

He is my amongst a few of my idols, what are your views on him?
Someone said they've never heard of him, goes to show how acknowledged he was for his acts.

the publicity-phobic Feeney told BusinessWeek in a rare interview in 2003. "The seats are the same in a cab. And you may live longer if you walk." As New York Times columnist Jim Dwyer once said, this is a man whose life is like Donald Trump's, only backwards.

[Quote]
"I had one idea that never changed in my mind — that you should use your wealth to help people. I try to live a normal life, the way I grew up," Feeney said. "I set out to work hard, not to get rich."

It sounds like he knows who he is and has his priorities set straight. He does what he believes without being concerned of what other people think of him or his ways. He's a self made man with a Robin Hood take on life. Not so extreme of course, but same philosophy I'm sure. He's a simple and happy man, I admire that. I don't envy that because I'm sure he's not the type of person who would want to be envied, but I admire his nobility, uniqueness, rationality, priorities, kindness, and spirit. In my eyes, the man has class. Although, $15 for a plastic watch is to much! haha, you can get a plastic sports watch at Target for $9.99! Just saying is all Well, my opinion on this probably isn't half as good as others on here, but I tried. Sounds like an interesting person to read about, I may pick the book up sometime. You have a great day alright?
