Product Description
by Dave DeVries (Author)
Think Different. Build Assets. Live Free.
Why do some people with average incomes retire early while high earners stay stuck? It isn't luck. It's how they think about money and what they consistently do with each dollar. In Greenlight Millionaire, Dave DeVries, CFP(R), CKA(R), RICP(R), distills decades of advising and real-life experience into a simple, sticky framework: green lights (assets) move you forward, red lights (liabilities) hold you back, and yellow lights demand wise caution. Through clear teaching, memorable stories (meet Joe Wealthy and Ben Broke), and practical "Wisdom Keys," you'll learn to spot which decisions accelerate your journey and which quietly sabotage it.
This isn't another "one true strategy." It's a mindset and a map you can apply to your path, whether you're investing in the market, real estate, or a business. You'll discover why your first $100,000 is the hardest (and how to get there), how to align money with purpose, and why stewardship, not spreadsheets, is the real engine of long-term wealth.
No gimmicks. No hype. Just timeless principles, told with Midwest clarity and a values-anchored perspective, so everyday people can build real, lasting wealth and a life they actually want.
In this book, you'll learn how to:Identify true assets vs. liabilities so every dollar either builds wealth or buys back your time.
Avoid the most common "red-light" traps (debt, lifestyle creep, impulse spending) and replace them with systems that compound.
Treat your home as a "yellow light," making smart ownership decisions without confusing it for an investment that pays you.
Break through to your first $100,000, then accelerate with goal-linked, tax-smart strategies and automations.
Seek mentors and practice stewardship, aligning money with faith, purpose, and multi-generational impact.
If you're tired of noise and ready for a simple way to think, act, and win with money, this book gives you the green light.
