Paperback. Zustand: Good. Fire Your Boss And Hire Yourself. Impossible? Not according to nationally bestselling author Stephen M. Pollan. As he says in this new and empowering book, "You don't have to accept your current work situation. You can be in control of your job and your stream of income, so you're never again subject to the whims, prejudices, moods, or circumstances of your so-called boss." In today's difficult work environment, gone are the days of finding satisfaction through your job, gone is the time when your job was secure, and gone are the days when your employer cared about you. This new environment requires new rules, and Pollan has provided surprisingly fresh and intriguing methods for finding "success" on the job. Pollan's bold and unique message begins with the idea that you must "fire your boss." By this he means you can no longer rely on your manager or your company for economic security. Instead, you must put yourself in charge of your working life. In this thought-provoking and counterintuitive career guide, Pollan presents a seven-step program and a series of exercises that give you the confidence, power, and will to achieve the life of your dreams. Once you have changed your mind-set and learned the new rules of the game, you can start the process of moving to a richer, more enriching, and more enjoyable life. And the best part about it? Your boss will love you for it.…

Hardback. Zustand: Fair. In his recent national bestseller, Die Broke, Stephen Pollan introduced a radical new strategy for spending and saving money in today's unpredictable financial environment. The natural result of Die Broke--indeed the reason to die broke in the first place--is the subject of this new volume. If Die Broke is about how we spend, save, and invest our money, Live Rich is the other side of the equation, the earning side of things. In it, Stephen Pollan shares the compelling observation that living rich has less to do with new worth or income stream and everything to do with freedom. The most powerful form of financial freedom comes from working for yourself (whoever your boss may be). Live Rich says all that's standing in your way of earning enough to live the life of your dreams is your relationship to money. Act rationally rather than emotionally when it comes to your income, and you'll find money can buy you happiness. The four tenets of the Live Rich philosophy, simply stated, are: Make Money. Too many of us have been fed the line that "work isn't necessarily about making money." Tell that to Visa next time they send you a bill. Don't grow, change. Be ready to change your work paradigm on a moment's notice, to morph from career to career several times as conditions--and you--change. Take Charge. In the twenty-first century, you must become proactive and start taking measured risks. Become a mercenary. Think for yourself as a free agent, responsible for your own security and always on the lookout for the next great job. Live Rich provides an explanation of Stephen Pollan's radical workplace philosophy as well as a detailed A to Z action plan--from "accountants" and "advertisement" to "Web sites" and "working capital"--that allows readers to apply the philosophy to every facet of their working loves and truly Live Rich.…
