Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine what you would do if your brother died at a very young age, and then your father died just a few years later. What if your family struggled financially for years because your father had no insurance. His death resulted in you having to move and live in a motel near your new high school, and you had to buy meals at the local diner because your mother was hundreds of miles away. Further, your mother suddenly decided to move you, at age fifteen, to Germany, where you couldn’t meet the basic requirements needed to attend school at your grade level. Suppose then, you decided to come back to America on your own accord, at age sixteen, and make your way with no family to support you. What would be your chances of making it on your own, let alone achieving success? This is a brief glimpse into Gary Heuer’s childhood. Fortunately, he did survive. He joined the army and overcame his family and life’s challenges. This all happened because his family never prepared for the contingencies of life. There was no insurance, no savings, and no planning. With this realization, Gary decided to become a financial advisor with one of the largest Christian-based insurance companies in America. His story of overcoming life’s obstacles and achieving success is one of courage, stamina, and perseverance. His autobiography is an in-depth look at what happens to a family when tragedy strikes, not once or twice, but multiple times. His heartbreaking story of endurance and steadfastness is one that can inspire and motivate any reader to stay the course and work through their issues. His story shows what a determined spirit can accomplish, if you never give up.
