Download or read book The Perfect Way to Survive a Storm written by Akeem Simmons and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of creating The Perfect Way to Survive a Storm is because I know this book can possibly help, enlighten, and inspire others. The goal is to teach financial strategies on how to survive a storm, personally or naturally caused. This book is like a blueprint to help prepare, discipline, and educate readers on steps to better, financially and mentally, prepare for a storm. The core focus of this book was to mentally help others be financially successful before, during, and even after a personal life storm. The double entendre is, even if a natural storm took place, readers will be mentally prepared, financially to challenge the storm. This book is based on true life experiences and goes into great details on what the artist went through, and most importantly, how the author got out of the storm. Imagine being in a situation with not many people to turn to, nowhere to go, and only a limited amount of income to work with. In this detailing story, this author explains times he had to sacrifice places and possessions to keep from losing everything. Daily rough times of sleeping in different places, borrowing money from bankers, and working with strangers to accomplish goals. Placed in highly stressful environments, somehow the author managed to keep his calm, faith, and patience to weather out the storm. Lots of drama, reoccurring events, dreams of almost making it out, with more problems ahead. Some events inspired from Hurricane Michael.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insane spending by past and current administrations has led us into staggering debt. Paying back the loans and interest gathered in the attempt to spend our way out of that debt has become impossible. The demise of the dollar is looming, poised to die in a flaming, downward spiral. When it hits bottom, this nation will fall into chaos like she has never seen before, plunging into a third-world status. Food, gas, and most everything else will become drastically more expensive, coupled with a rise in crime. The "New Normal" for our nation will be upon us as these changes take place. Hollywood has painted an image of this nation's future as an apocalyptic world filled with mutant, "Mad Max"-type biker gangs and zombies-and the masses have bought into it. In this book, the author refutes this and takes examples from history as well as from a Christian, biblical standpoint showing what you can do to prepare.

Book excerpt: In the midst of the Blizzard of 1978, the tanker Global Hope floundered on the shoals in Salem Sound off the Massachusetts coast. The Coast Guard heard the Mayday calls and immediately dispatched a patrol boat. Within an hour, the Coast Guard boat was in as much trouble as the tanker, having lost its radar, depth finder, and engine power in horrendous seas. Pilot boat Captain Frank Quirk was monitoring the Coast Guard's efforts by radio, and when he heard that the patrol boat was in jeopardy, he decided to act. Gathering his crew of four, he readied his forty-nine-foot steel boat, the Can Do, and entered the maelstrom of the blizzard. Using dozens of interview and audiotapes that recorded every word exchanged between Quirk and the Coast Guard, Tougias has written a devastating, true account of bravery and death at sea, in Ten Hours Until Dawn.
