b'i would like to dedicate this book to my wife, nanci.When nanci and i first started on this adventure some 20 years ago, we really had no idea where it would take us. ive always believed that money is simply paper and that real happiness doesnt come from having money but from living your life and working to make your dreams come true. nanci and i have been partners in that endeavor for a long timeand each time i pursue a new enterprise, i have no doubt about the fact that none of what ive achieved would exist if it were not for her.To me, life is a continuous sequence of dreams and opportunities. nanci is the light that brightens my heart during my most perilous moments. she is the piece of my soul that once was missing.she makes me whole; she is my world, and so much more.'
