Why this book, this month

"I've built and sold businesses for 40 years, and the rules in this little book are the ones I keep coming back to. Pay yourself first. Make every dollar work. Guard it from loss. It's short and it reads like a story, so you'll finish it. November is the month we stop wondering where the money went and start telling it where to go."

Arkad says "a part of all you earn is yours to keep." Why does paying yourself first feel so hard, and what usually gets paid instead?
Which of the Seven Cures for a Lean Purse are you already doing? Which one have you been avoiding?
The camel trader says a man with the soul of a slave can't pay his debts. What does it mean to have "the soul of a free man" about money?
Where in your life is there a "hole in the purse"? What would guarding it look like this month?
Withstand · Own · Win: what money storm have you withstood, what part of it do you own, and what would winning look like by next November?
