That’s exactly what Prosper! offers: a blueprint for taking control of and improving your destiny. It outlines practical, actionable investments of your time & resources that will ensure you enjoy greater prosperity in your life, whatever the future may bring. In Prosper!, Martenson and Taggart will explain: The trends mostly likely to shape your life over the next 20 years and why developing resilience offers your best chance for thriving, even though society may suffer from the changes these trends may bring.
