Myvesta Book Recognized By The Washington Post
"The Path To Happiness and Wealth" is January's book of the month
For Immediate Release: December 30, 2002
ROCKVILLE, Md. — The Path to Happiness and Wealth is nationally syndicated Washington Post Columnist Michelle Singletary's January selection for her Color of Money Book Club. Steve Rhode, president and co-founder of Myvesta, a nonprofit financial management organization, wrote the book to help people find a new path to internal prosperity and happiness.
In a column announcing her selection, Singletary wrote: "I like this book because it's not so much a nuts-and-bolts blueprint on how to pay off your debts but a conversation -- sometimes stern, other times warm -- about the need to understand how the mismanagement of money can be demoralizing."
The Path to Happiness and Wealth inspires people to start their journey to personal success. Rhode teaches readers to discover their true self through practical, emotional and introspective exercises, tips and challenges. His approach focuses on the whole person, changing negative money habits into positive steps that invigorate life and financial goals. An approach echoed in his work at Myvesta.
"Rather than concentrating mainly on debt repayment plans, Myvesta now offers a wide range of programs and services, including support groups, alternatives to bankruptcy and a comprehensive financial-management service in which people can pay to have a professional manage their day-to-day finances," Singletary said in her column.
