I've been attempting to follow the Rich Idiot's guide since May of this year - well - it did get me started on this blog, and stumbled upon this related web-site: The Rich Idiot Game. An interesting concept to say the least. The game takes tasks - or to-do items - from the Rich Idiot book and puts them in game form. You complete the tasks and earn points for doing so, such as: write a mission statement (100 points), contact a financial planner (500 points). Alas they started - as of October - charging $14.95/month to play the game. Boo-hoo. Why does everything cost $14.95/month on the web, anyway?
I can't really recommend joining unless you want to try it out for yourself - buyer beware. They still have a few kinks to work out. For the clever of us; maybe we can design our own games.
Lesson learned: If you make your tasks a game, it's not so bad (maybe you can reward yourself).
Bonus lesson learned: You don't have to make tremedious strides towards your goal everyday, just do one or two little things.
