Knowing how to get rich is easy; knowing why you don't just get up and do it is the hard bit.
Seven ordinary people addicted to bitching about their struggles to make ends meet and convinced that their lives will never be much more than sheer slog, enrol in a personal development course that changes their lives. A philosopher-cabbie, a cynical hard-nosed English woman and her estranged husband, a middling salesman and his boss, a cafe manager and a hairdresser find themselves at the mercy of a teacher who refuses to pamper them with the usual, empty get rich prattle. Mixing fiction, experience and teaching, he leads them through ruthless self-examination, preparing them to break through the Bitch barrier to the richer world beyond. Eventually, they face the most serious choice of their lives; either they will make the one, unbreakable, lifelong promise that will radically change the directions of their lives or they will remain forever in a state of self-induced inertia. Not all make it. Packed with common sense, original insights into human change, management and practical advice about money matters. Toney Fitzgerald keeps his own promise in the book; by the time you get to the end, you will no longer have an excuse to bitch.
