“The Opportunity Tree” is a companion volume to the bestselling, "Time: the Ultimate Investment.” It teaches essential principles in a story that entertains as well as revealing all you need to know to start your own business. From initial idea to substantial cash flow, learn how to recognize opportunity, follow its path and turn your passion into a profitable life.

Here's the story (It may sound familiar):

Dan Benjamin lost his job, lost his dignity and is about to lose his house. He’s conscientious, hard working and smart, yet he still can’t find a job. He thought he had all the answers but learned the hard way he was sadly mistaken. All he can do is hang on and hold out for a break. Every step forward sees him knocked two steps back. Then Dan learns he's been blacklisted for something he didn't do -- and it's emblazoned all across the newspapers.

Dan keeps plugging along, living life in quiet desperation. Then a strange dream spurs him forward and he meets a fluffy bunny magnate, a chemistry teacher and a festival vendor who help him recognize a small business opportunity that's been staring him right in the face. Trouble is, he's not quite sure how to start a business of his own. It would be a home based business, so his risk is minimal – which is good because he doesn't have any money for a business start up right now anyway.

Hesitantly, Dan steps onto the path leading him to what looks to be the new business enterprise of his dreams. Can he hold on until he finds success or will he lose everything in the process? He's not sure about this entrepreneurship thing.

Written by a veteran banker and business owner who has worked with over 250 start up and expanding businesses. It's a realistic example of what you can expect when starting your own business.
