This is a book for people at every stage of life. It is a book for young people who are just starting out on the journey of life. Just as young internet-savvy people use the net to tap the experiences of others with products or travel locations, so I hope you will find the life experiences of these people equally fascinating. Wisdom does not have to come when we are old; we can find it much sooner. This is also a book for those in mid-life, like me, who want to ensure that we discover what matters before it is too late. It is also a book for those in their later years, who wish to reflect on their life experiences and discover ways to pass wisdom on to those who follow.
