Larry Winget – 123 Book Meme Style

I’ve been tagged by Catherine to participate in the 123 Book Meme.

The rules?

1. Pick up the nearest book (of at least 123 pages).
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. Tag five people.

The book closest to me right now is It’s Called Work for a Reason (aff. link) by Larry Winget. This is one that I won from All Financial Matters. I’ll be reviewing this book shortly, but if you are interested in hearing more about Larry, I reviewed his book, You’re Broke Because You Want to Be last month.

Ok, now back to the meme. Here’s what we find on page 123:

Do they promise faster service or better pricing? No, they just promise better service. I like it.

For context, Larry is talking about DHL and their new ad campaign. Larry is a bit no-holds barred when it comes to talking about companies and how they run their businesses.

Now it’s my turn to tag a few people:

JW at Need to Be Debt Free
Jesse at The Penny Saved
DebtKid at DebtKid.com
Grace at GRACEful Retirement
Boomie at The Wastrel Show

Tricia,
Thanks for tagging me. I just happened to be reading a great book and had it next to me when I checked your website. It’s fate.

Tricia, I bet you have a virtual cabinet stuffed with virtual awards, so I’m adding another one. I nominated you for an excellent blog award on my blog.
