25 To Life: Jailbreak Your 9-5 & Escape to Financial Freedom

Rate this book
"Twenty-five to Life" is the terminology used to refer to prison sentences for criminals. Many governments believe the worst sentence for a criminal is to spend the rest of his or her life behind bars. However, many more people in the world are living out their own prison sentences, just not behind bars. They serve their sentences in cubicles, behind desks, and in the trenches of mediocrity, constantly grinding day in and day out, struggling to keep themselves afloat. These prisoners are not wearing black-and-white striped jumpsuits, but instead are adorned with suits, ties, smocks, and work uniforms. Ball and chains are replaced with mountains of debt we carry on our shoulders wherever we go, a heavy reminder of the reason we trade the best 40-plus years of our To make a living with the hopes of retiring and enjoying our "golden years." Today, at just 25 years old, I have created a new meaning for 25 to Life. Instead of a life sentence in the work force, I escaped. I challenged the system, the way things were "supposed to be," and in a short four to five years broke out from my personal life sentence as an employee. Now, 25 to Life is a life based on complete financial freedom at the age of 25, having my entire life ahead of me to live life to the fullest, while helping others escape their own life sentence. Believe me, if I can achieve this, you can as well. I encourage you to open your mind as you open this book. You just might open up a door to opportunity and change that will allow you to escape your 25 to Life.

Following a traditional moderately orthodox Jewish upbringing I studied art for five years, gaining a BA at Saint Martins in 1981. For the next fifteen years I enjoyed success both as a representational/expressive painter and then as a commercial illustrator. In 1993 I began work on my academic book, King Saul - The True History of the First Messiah which was published by the Lutterworth press (Cambridge) in 2007 to critical acclaim. My first novel, The Sons of Kohath was published in 2014. In addition to my writing, literary editing, fine art and illustration skills I am also a professional 'art photographer' and am proficient with the very latest Adobe Photoshop software. I am currently producing a series of commercial limited edition, highly produced photo-art images using these processes. In 1991 I married ex Sadlers Wells ballerina Dido Nicholson and a year later we purchased a 'finca' (a small holding) in southern Spain where we primarily farm grapes and make traditional Malaga Montes wine. From 1993 until today--except for a two year spell in Israel from 2009-11) we have divided our time equally between London and Andalusia.

Escaping your life sentence

This is an excellent book that truly gives a great understanding of the network marketing industry. Written in an inspiring format, it opens up a new way of thinking about earning a living and to make changes in how we can live our life and truly escape the rat race which we all have been told is the only way to earn an income. It can serve as a great tool to share the business with other people.

Adam Green is a smart, duplicatable, and YOUNG mastermind within the field of network marketing. I came across his story online and I watched his video, which ultimately lead me to wanting his book. His book was just as inspiring as he was "in the flesh"; I only wish it had more of a step-by-step guide to recreating his success (for that I have found, The Compound Effect: Jumpstart Your Income, Your Life, Your Success by Darren Hardy). Regardless, his words are inspiring and it is the perfect (super quick) way to fix your attitude and to receive a pep-talk about how 'you can do it, too'. I highly recommend this text and once it makes sense, I will purchase it for my business partners.

"Usually, our success is not based on empowering others, but making ourselves look better and more valuable compared to our co-workers. Network marketing flips the game, and allows you to empower others around you to succeed, because when your people win, you win."

"To make it an even more beautiful model, the only way you are ever compensated is when the high quality products and services wind up in the end user's hands, bettering the individual's life. You make money when you help people, which to me feels like the best business in the world".

Love Adam! Love his book! I've been lucky enough to meet him at our convention in 2015 in Grapevine Texas and hear him speak from the heart to others. This book has given me some additional tools to create a life for my kids that I would never be able to obtain otherwise.

This has to be one of my top chosen books to read about network marketing. It's short, easy to read, and really makes you think, (I can do this too). I will definitely be reading this book over and over again, to keep reminding myself that with faith, and perseverance, I too can achieve success.

This is a great little book to show people the benefits of a network marketing business. I was only a little disappointed as I was hoping it would have tips and tricks for growing your business as well, since I am already in network marketing! Would definitely share with someone though that isn’t.
