Why "pearls of wisdom"? My mom says she always felt she had an old soul, and her mom was full of practical tips for navigating through life, so "pearls of wisdom" became a theme for them. From relationship to investing tips that never wear with time, this book is a compilation of my mother's "pearls of wisdom," some of which you may have already heard in your own home. We know you were raised with common sense and that many of these insights will sound familiar to you, but we thought memorializing them in writing could make for a helpful resource at different stages of your life. About the AuthorsEveryone's mother seems to be dispensing logical, sound advice on a regular basis, but if you were like me growing up, much of it went in one ear and out the other...even after the tenth time you heard it. My mom and coauthor of this book, Elena Chase, has been divulging unique and beneficial insights ever since I could talk. Amidst wanting to complain about her nagging, I now have come to realize that I live by this unwritten motherly advice code, which falls somewhere between verbalized logic and conscious choices in trying to be a decent, responsible adult. Of course, some of her pearls of wisdom relate to more specific aspects of life, such as, "Always buy stocks of companies with products or services you understand and use frequently," or "Purchase purses with zippers so nothing accidentally escapes it in the car or on public transportation." However, the majority of her helpful hints have been guideposts to making wise choices in life and striving to achieve goals.
