New Amazon Best-Selling Book Offers Readers Advice on How to Break Free from Corporate America and Live a Life of Their Design

After the births of his children and his wedding day, author Paul David Thompson says the best day of his life was the day he got laid off from his corporate job. While that may sound counter-intuitive, getting laid off freed Thompson from living life following someone else's plan and building someone else's dream, enabling him to live a life of his own design. Thompson says, "I felt as though I was without purpose. I was searching for what I should be doing. I was rudderless. I knew there had to be something better. But I was just comfortable enough to not make a change. That's what is so insidious about working a 9-to-5 in corporate America. You're treading water and just getting enough oxygen to survive, but not enough to thrive. I wasn't living a life of purpose or significance. I was living a flat life, devoid of personal growth."

In his new book, Escape: Money Mindset to Freedom with Stocks, Real Estate, and Starting Your Own Business, Thompson teaches his readers how to live a life of their own design. First, Thompson teaches his readers how to figure out what, exactly, the life of their dreams looks like and how to get in the right mindset to pursue that life. There are three basic steps to success: investing in yourself, investing in your network, and investing in assets. Investing in yourself may involve developing more marketable skills, earning a better certification, or getting more practical experience. Investing in your network means that you are both investing in relationships that can help your career and investing in relationships with other investors, who can give you advice and share in your triumphs and struggles on your path to financial freedom. If you are the average of the five people you spend the most time with, those people should be people who support and motivate you.

Thompson outlines several paths to wealth by investing in assets. In Escape, Thompson covers simple stock investing, real estate investing, and building a business. Thompson shares specific techniques for building wealth, using his own journey to financial freedom to teach readers the easiest and least risky path to success. Thompson's advice is like a friend offering their hand to guide you down a path you're not familiar with, a navigator who knows the way.

Escape has become a #1 best-seller on Amazon in the Customer Relations and Econometrics categories. Thompson also hosts the podcast Ready Investor One, which teaches people how to use investments to live a life of their design.

Thompson says, "I want to empower working professionals to see what is really happening in the world. I want everyone to realize they don't have to fit their lives around their work; instead, workers can become investors and live a life of abundance, satisfaction, and joy."

Paul David Thompson is a full-time investor, speaker, and coach who no longer depends on a day job. He broke free from the chain of the corporate world by investing in real estate.

This is the right time for us to join forces with Ntiva, providing an avenue for DTS employees to advance in their careers, as well as offer our clients a stronger portfolio of IT services."

Immersion Active Defines Solo Agers’ Future Housing and Community Preferences in New White Paper

Currently, 22 percent of Americans over the age of 65 are considered "solo agers," which are older adults aging without the support of nearby family. Since they cannot rely on outside help for daily tasks, their preferences for future housing options may be less traditional than their coupled peers. To help community developers and builders understand and incorporate these preferences into future projects, Immersion Active, a leading marketing solutions agency specializing in connecting consumers with brands that bring value to their lives, has released a white paper titled "Predicting Housing Trends: How Solo Agers Will Impact Community Development." The free white paper provides critical information about who solo agers are, what they want from their homes and communities, and how much they are willing to pay to satisfy their housing needs.

To download the white paper, visit: info.immersionactive.com/solo-ager.

The white paper includes the findings of a September 2018 survey Immersion Active conducted with the Elder Orphan Facebook group, a 9,000-member group founded and moderated by Carol Marak, a well-known expert in the aging alone community. Key findings found in the white paper include:

"Society commonly groups all 55+ individuals together, however our needs drastically change as we age and solo agers are no different," said Joe Ford, president and senior digital strategist at Immersion Active. "We want to help builders and developers understand this population's unique housing, amenities, and community preferences so they can create outside-the-box solutions. Solo agers of today are the pioneers. They have the potential to shape the demand for senior housing options over the next decade."

Monster Energy’s Pat Casey and Andy Buckworth Take Second and Third At The Toyota BMX Triple Challenge

Monster Energy congratulates Pat Casey and Andy Buckworth on their second and third place finish at the final stop of the Toyota BMX Triple Challenge in Denver, Colorado. It's been 13 years since a Supercross hit Denver, Colorado, and with its return came the highest level of dirt riding at the Toyota Triple Challenge. The final stop of the year pushed progression even further with the biggest jumps ever seen at the series, and arguably the largest of any event. As always many of the best riders in the world, along with hungry up-and-comers converged on Colorado to see what they could get done.

The qualifying event on Friday wasn't open to the public, but the level of riding remains unchanged. Although the Denver setup did bring one huge difference: the jumps themselves. A 20-foot-tall roll-in lead straight into a towering 10-foot lip that had two paths, left or right, into two different landings that we're pitched the opposite direction. The odd, creative setup threw a lot of riders out of their comfort zone. One of those riders was Monster Energy's Casey, who went down hard on his third run of the day and was forced to sit out for the rest of Friday's practice. Fortunately, Casey was already pre-qualified to semi-finals based off his win in Anaheim. Twenty-six other riders weren't so lucky and had battle it out for the 13 open spots in semi-finals. At the end of the day, Monster Energy's Andy Buckworth, James Foster, Jack Borthwick and Monster Army's Bryce Tryon proved themselves to be worthy of the semifinal in front of a packed crowd.

They say Denver is the land of four seasons and Saturday's event proved just that. Overnight rain gave way to snow for the first half of the day and doubt began to creep in whether or not the event would even happen. Fortunately, around 1 pm the sun came out and the build crew used blowtorches to dry everything. The weather delay meant that the semi-finals were cancelled and the finals would feature all 16 riders in one "battle royale" of sorts. Read related news here.

With his knee still banged up and the jumps running a bit slower than the day before, Casey was definitely a bit shook going into the day. With just an hour or so of practice before finals, Casey dropped in and systematically built up his confidence. He got over the 360 that took him out the day before and by the time he took his run, he stomped a 360 triple whip over the first set followed by a cash roll over the second.

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/canine-camp-getaway-of-ny-dog-vacation.html

That combo earned him second place. After the event, Casey was glad to be on the podium.

"I just made sure I could 360 that first jump and then I was fine," said Casey. I love big dirt jumps and these events are one of my favorites of the year because of that—the bigger jumps, the bigger the tricks you can do."

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/texas-fertility-center-and-ovation.html

Buckworth came out firing in finals with his signature double backflip on the first set, but the first jump really made it more for him.

"That jump was something I wanted to double flip as a personal goal just because it was a challenge–and it scared me," said Buckworth. It was something that I was definitely sweating because I just didn't know what was going to happen, but we are there to roll the dice and it paid off in the first run." Click here.

His first run did pay off, but he continued to stomp the double flip in all three runs. Unfortunately, Buckworth went down on his third run on a front flip superman, which could have bumped him up from third place, but he was happy to be on the podium.

"At the end of the day, I was really stoked to be on the podium again, said Buckworth. It's the best feeling ever."

Tryon put up his best placing to date by scoring fifth place with a superman-to-barspin over the first set and a cash roll over the second.
