Obviously, I am trying to screw you in some way by providing links to the same exact resources I have used to take control of my life so the government is requiring me to include this disclosure. And if you are in any way offended that I might make a few cents of the products I recommend then please go to your local book store and spend more money than you would have by following the links I provided.
I borrowed the follwoing disclosure from my new hero
Tim Ferriss with his permission. If you really want to learn about taking control of your life I advise looking at his site.
Borrowed disclosure that applies to my site:
This website is not primarily financially driven. I put it up in 2009 to provide information about taking control of your life.
That said, beginning December 1, 2009, the FTC requires bloggers to provide disclosures whenever there could be hidden interests or unspoken biases related to recommendations.
First, the obvious: I am a lifestyle coach and engineer.
Second, the less obvious: Per the FTC rules, if I interview someone and they grab the bill for lunch, I would need to specify this. Ditto if I use an Amazon link that gets me 8 cents instead of an Amazon link that gets me 0 cents. If someone gives me a comfy t-shirt with a logo and I wear it in a photo, same deal. Disclaimers all over the place.
This would be tedious for me and a continual eye sore for readers. But rules is rules.
To cover my ass and preserve your reading experience, please assume that, for every recommendation, link, and product I use, the following all hold true:

This would not happen because I love my wife and I would never do anything to hurt her but it is funny.
