FEBRUARY Book Club - January Review (Rich Dad Poor Dad) February Introduction (The Monk Who Sold His Farrari)

Hello and welcome to our February edition of Virtual Book Club with Andrew Little, Sales Representative with the Jen Scholte Team. I hope everyone had an excellent start to 2021 and found some time to get outside and enjoy the sunshine as well as time to cuddle up by the fire with a good book. Thank you to everyone who has joined or is following along with us. 

For the month of January we read Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert T. Kiyosaki which explores the topic of Personal Finance. Originally published in 1997 this book has been on the top sellers list and sold over 40 Million copies. This book has stood the test of time and is a…

This piece was written by Melissa Barrett, Sales Representative with the Jen Scholte Team. Melissa is enthusiastic about staying active and is always sure to keep The Jen Scholte Team accountable for their daily steps and inspired by her can-do attitude! Here, Melissa shares how she keeps positive and motivated during our most recent lockdown and hopes that you will join in on the 'get outside' movement.

We’re here. We’re all in this together, but separately. Something we’ve been hearing and saying for nearly a year now. But what does that mean?...

But what if I told you that you…

This piece was written by Debbie Bullock, Sales Representative with the Jen Scholte Team. Debbie moved from England to Canada in August 2012 with her family. Debbie has travelled extensively throughout Europe, Australia and the US - and after a month of local travel in Ontario settled in Collingwood and hasn't looked back. Debbie has a keen interest in home styles and shares key styles noted in her travels in this blog. 

If you’re anything like me, you find home styles fascinating. The size, layout, exterior, colour, textures, type of building materials, windows all ‘talk’ about the home. On a trip to Australia some years ago, we visited friends who lived in a “Queenslander” and that’s when I first fell in love with this style of home!

JANUARY Book Club - Rich Dad Poor Dad 

Happy New Year everyone! For those of you who I have not had the chance to meet, my name is Andrew Little, Sales Representative for the Jen Scholte Team. 

A new year brings new goals and one of my personal goals for 2021 is to read one book a month related to Finance, Business, Personal Development or Investing. In the past, I have always favoured audiobooks and podcasts over reading hard copies of books due to the fact that I can listen on the go while driving between appointments. This year I have decided to make reading a habit and incorporate 15-30 minutes of reading into my Morning and Evening Routines. 

To start us off for the month of JANUARY I am going to be reading Rich Dad Poor Dad by…
