Man On Fire - One CPA's Mission: To Change The World

Tom Corley is no ordinary CPA. Sure, like many other CPAs, he works hard for his clients in minimizing their taxes, managing their wealth and advising them in their businesses. But unlike any other CPA, Tom has a burning "man on fire" mission. Tom is out to change the world, or at least most of America.  "Ninety-five percent of Americans struggle financially. They eke out a living. They live from one paycheck to the next. They are barely getting by. They are hanging on by a thread. And the saddest thing is that this reality perpetuates itself from one generation to the next. It's what I call the generational cycle of financial failure and I'm out to change that. This disenfranchised group, which makes up most of America, has never been taught by their parents or their schools how to be financially successful in life."

Tom is absolutely convinced that his message, his "discovery" will change the face of America. He is so convinced that he has spent the past 18 months sharing his message with everyone and anyone who cares to listen. "Over the past year I have spoken to perhaps thirty groups made up of high schools, business organizations, churches and entrepreneur groups. I have written a book, articles and blogged over 150 posts this past year. I have spoken to everyone I know. I am literally going door to door to tell my story and share my message."

What exactly is Tom Corley's message that has him so fired up? "I have uncovered the secret to financial success. I have unlocked the key to unlimited wealth creation. I have discovered the holy grail for becoming wealthy." Tom's story began about six years ago when a client, in desperation, requested a meeting with Tom. This client was a small business client who was struggling financially. The fact was, he was failing financially. His bank had just shut down his line of credit and converted the balance into a term loan. With no more available line of credit this small business client was, for the first time in the company's history, unable to make payroll. Nearly twenty employees and their families went without a paycheck that week. "This client was looking for a hail-mary pass in the fourth quarter with three seconds to go in the game and I just could not help him," Tom says. The client then, out of sheer desperation, asked Tom a question that altered the course of Tom's life. And that question was: "what am I doing wrong?"  "What the client was really asking me", Tom says, is "why am I failing financially?"  What are other successful businesses doing that I am not? What secrets do they possess that I don't?"

This question took Tom down a path that has lasted over six years. "What I decided to do is embark on a research project to find out what wealthy, successful individuals do every day that sets them apart from everyone else. I knew that I would have to get into minutia, their daily habits. I never thought it would lead to an obsession which took up so much of my time," Tom indicated. Over a five-year period Tom asked hundreds of wealthy and poor individuals what became known as his "twenty question list". For another year Tom analyzed the answers from each group and that is when he nearly fell off his chair in his basement office. "I made an incredible discovery. I found a pattern that repeated itself over every question," says Tom. "What I discovered was that each group's response to each question was similar within the group but when I compared one group to the other, their responses were vastly different. In fact, the differences in their responses between the two groups were so different, I knew I had made an historic discovery. I knew right then and there that I had uncovered the secret to financial success."

Tom has since created a training program to teach businesses and their employees these secrets to financial success. Tom has also written a book called "Rich Habits", which shares these secrets to financial success in an entertaining story format. "I wanted to share my Rich Habits but in an entertaining way. I wanted to tell a story of the Rich Habits as opposed to lecture on them. And I accomplished that."

Tom is very confident that what he has discovered will change the world. "I believe my book, Rich Habits, is perhaps the most significant treatise on creating unlimited wealth. I am absolutely convinced that my discoveries will change the very face of our nation. I see it rejuvenating America's stagnated economy. Rich Habits is like putting your financial life on steroids. In time, Rich Habits will be seen as the second most significant book ever written. Second only to the Bible."
