We did it!... And I need your help

This is one of those emails I’ve imagined writing for a long time.


My book — 'How to Become Financially Indestructible' — is officially out on Amazon.


Not “coming soon.” Not “pre-order.” Not “one day.”


It’s live! It's there.

It's a testament and a tribute to my parents - who gave me the financial education at an early age. To all the wonderful people who proofread early drafts, who critiqued and who pre-ordered in advance. (Thank YOU all! Pre orders shipping in the next few weeks. :)


And before I tell you why I would like you to buy it, let me tell you what you’ll get from it — because that’s what actually matters...

This book was written for people who:


• Make money but feel like it disappears

• Worry they’re one bad event away from financial stress

• Don’t exactly always trust the system, their bank, or their accountant

• Want clarity, confidence, and control over their money

Want that financial education they never got in school

• Have kids (or plan to) and don’t want to pass financial anxiety down to them


Inside the book, I break down — in plain language — how to:


• Stop bleeding money without being in “budget hell”

• Build a financial foundation that doesn’t collapse under pressure

• Use the rules of the system to your advantage instead of being crushed by them

• Make smarter decisions around debt, investing, taxes, and protection

• Think like the financially resilient, the financially savvy — not the financially stressed


This isn’t theory. It’s built from:


• Growing up with parents who were bank managers who gave me the financial education 99% of people never get

• Watching, learning and studying how the wealthy actually behave and think about money

• The experience of making many mistakes myself and learning from them

• Helping thousands of real people fix real financial messes and turn their lives around 


And so much more...


If you read this book and apply even 10% of it, you’ll be better off than most people for the rest of your life.


Now here’s the part I’m going to be very real with you about:

Buying this book — especially in the first little while — matters a lot.


Because Amazon doesn’t care about how meaningful the book is or what's inside. It cares about momentum.


Every purchase, every review, every bit of early traction tells the algorithm:

“This book deserves to be shown to more people.”


And if that happens, this message gets in front of families who genuinely need it. Those are people I will never meet otherwise.


So yes… buying the book helps me.


But more importantly, it helps move the mission of ending financial misery forward. It helps spread something I KNOW will reduce stress, fear, and financial misery for a lot of people: A financial education that's permanent 


If my work has ever helped you…

If you believe in what I’m building…

If you want to support this mission in a real, tangible way…


👉 Please grab your copy on Amazon today.


And if you’re willing to go one step further:

Making a short, honest review on Amazon when you're ready (even a few sentences) makes a massive difference.


From the bottom of my heart — thank you for being here, for reading, and for supporting this chapter of my life.


This one means more than you probably realize.


Thank YOU, 


– Michael Santonato

Congrats on getting your book published — that’s a huge milestone and it sounds like it comes from a very meaningful place. The topics you’re covering are really important because many people struggle with managing money even when they earn well. Interestingly, when I take short breaks from reading about finance, I like solving brain games using https://letterboxanswer.vercel.app which helps keep the mind sharp while relaxing. It’s always nice to balance serious learning with a bit of mental exercise. Wishing your book great success and lots of readers!

Congratulations on reaching this milestone! Achievements like this show the dedication and hard work behind the project. As you move forward, it might also help to share practical resources that make community interactions easier—especially when coordinating events across different time zones. For example, tools like https://discordtimestampgenerator.vercel.app can help members quickly generate accurate time codes so everyone sees the correct local time. Small additions like this can really improve communication and participation within the community.
