Cheap Houses: A Memoir of Poverty and Reinvention in Rural America

Some children grow up believing the world is fair. Others learn to survive before they are old enough to understand why they have to.

Stevie G. Davis was born to a teenage mother and abandoned by his father before birth. His childhood unfolded in the coal camps and small communities of rural northern Alabama, where his family moved from one cheap house to another in search of work and a place they could afford. The houses had cracked walls, little insulation, and few comforts. Hunger was never far away, and every dollar mattered.

As a boy, he picked cotton, hauled pulpwood, baled hay, cut fence posts, and accepted whatever work he could find. He wore hand-me-down clothes, carried paper-sack lunches, and stuffed cardboard inside worn-out shoes because new ones were a luxury his family could not afford. Poverty was not something he recognized at first—it was simply life.

Everything began to change when he discovered a set of "Future Cards" describing the emerging world of computers. To a boy who had never seen one, they represented more than technology. They represented possibility.

At seventeen, Davis enlisted in the United States Air Force as a medic. Through persistence, self-education, and a willingness to embrace every opportunity, he built a career that eventually led him into medical information systems. In 1992, he was recognized as the United States Air Force Medical Information Systems Non-Commissioned Officer of the Year before continuing his journey into corporate information technology.

Yet success never erased the memories of the cheap houses that shaped him.

Written with honesty, humility, and the eye of someone who remembers every detail, Cheap Houses is more than a memoir of poverty. It is a story of resilience, family, sacrifice, fear, reinvention, and the quiet determination to build a different future without forgetting where you came from.

For readers who appreciated the emotional honesty of The Glass Castle or the perseverance found in Hillbilly Elegy, Cheap Houses offers an unforgettable journey from hardship to hope—proving that while our beginnings shape us, they do not have to define the rest of our lives.

Capitalism: A Pillar for People, Community, and Our Ways of Life

    

Capitalism: A Pillar for People, Community, and Our Ways of Life

By William M. Togbah

What if the future of capitalism depends not only on how markets grow, but on how widely opportunity is shared?

Economic systems are often discussed through statistics, policies, and political arguments. William M. Togbah takes a more human-centered route in Capitalism: A Pillar for People, Communities, and Our Ways of Life, examining capitalism through the people and communities expected to live within it. Rather than treating capitalism as a settled idea, Togbah presents it as an economic model that should be reconsidered for a changing, increasingly interconnected century. 

Africa plays an important role in that discussion. Togbah argues that conversations about capitalism often overlook developing economies, particularly places where governments and public services may have less capacity. His examination considers how private enterprise, individual initiative, competition, and different levels of government regulation affect economic life across African societies. 

Yet the book reaches beyond a defense of one economic system. Its chapters move through women’s empowerment, the growth of the middle class, technology, education, multinational business, and job creation—subjects that bring economics closer to everyday concerns. Education receives particular attention as a path toward specialization, productivity, knowledge sharing, and greater economic participation. 

That perspective gives the book particular relevance for today’s writers, thinkers, students, and socially conscious readers. Discussions of inequality, employment, education, and development can easily become abstract. Togbah continually returns those discussions to human outcomes: whether people can find work, develop useful skills, participate economically, strengthen their communities, and imagine better possibilities for the next generation. His exploration also draws from interviews concerning education, wealth disparity, public safety, and other social concerns, alongside his own experience of economic inequality in Liberia. 

For contemporary society, perhaps the book’s most valuable invitation is not that every reader must agree with its conclusions. It is that economic ideas deserve closer examination when they shape education, opportunity, work, identity, and community life.

Readers interested in African politics, global economics, development, education, and the continuing debate over capitalism will find plenty to consider in William M. Togbah’s Capitalism: A Pillar for People, Communities, and Our Ways of Life.

Listen in as we discuss his book, Making Peace With Life, Dr. Rob Alex takes you on a deeply human, refreshingly honest, and surprisingly humorous journey through the chaos, beauty, heartbreak, energy, and wonder of being alive.

This isn’t a book about chasing perfection.

It’s about embracing the full spectrum — the ups, the downs, the middle ground, the transitions, the questions, the endings, and the beginnings.

Inside these pages you’ll explore:

• Why there is no real “finish line” in life — and why that’s good news
• How life’s hardest moments often become your greatest teachers
• The metaphysical energy that connects you to every other life on the planet
• Why your life is both a tiny drop… and an entire universe
• How music, memories, impact, and love glue everything together
• Why asking better questions may matter more than finding answers
• How to stop defining yourself by age, status, or comparison
• And why your life has unlimited value — even when you forget it does

Blending psychology, personal development, metaphysical insight, and everyday humor, Dr. Rob Alex writes like the friend who hands you cosmic wisdom and a high-five at the same time.

This book will not give you all the answers.

It will give you something far more powerful:

Permission to breathe.

Permission to question.

Permission to adjust.

Permission to live fully.

And most importantly —

Permission to make peace with life exactly as it is… while still growing into what it can become.

The High-Growth Contractor:

The No-BS Blueprint to Go From $500K to $1M, $10M, and Beyond

You don't have a lead problem. You have a system problem.

Most contractors aren't running a business — they're running a stressful job with trucks, missed calls, half-written estimates, and no idea which jobs actually make money. The High-Growth Contractor hands you the operating manual.

Justin Smith built Contractor+, the operating system contractors use to run and grow their businesses. In this no-BS blueprint he shows you how to stop thinking like a technician and start running like an operator — and scale from $500K to $1M, $10M, and beyond.

Inside, you'll build:

• The Two Pipelines — sales and production — so no lead, estimate, or job ever falls through the cracks.
• The numbers that tell the truth — the handful of metrics that reveal what's actually profitable. Revenue lies; margin doesn't.
• Speed-to-lead — why the contractor who answers first usually wins, and the 5-minute rule that makes it automatic.
• Estimates that sell — good/better/best, financing, and follow-up that turns quotes into signed jobs.
• Financing as a growth lever — how "as low as $/mo" turns more nos into yeses and lifts your average ticket.
• The Local Trust Machine — reviews, Google, and local SEO that make you the obvious, safest choice.
• Neighborhood Domination — the step-by-step playbook that turns every finished job into your next three.
• Plus paid ads without burning cash, the review & referral flywheel, production that protects profit, and who to hire, when.

It closes with a 90-Day Growth Reset — an exact, week-by-week plan to install the whole machine.

Part growth manual, part sales training, part wake-up call. If you're good at the work but tired of chasing jobs, this is the book that turns your trade into a business.

Stop chasing random jobs. Build the machine.

Impossible to Say No

   

 

Impossible to Say No: The Integration-Led Growth Playbook — Turn Partners Into Your Cheapest, Stickiest Growth Channel

Everyone thinks an integration means instant traffic. It doesn't.

You ship the integration, post the announcement, and wait for the flood of users. Nothing comes. Then a newer app pushes your listing down the partner's directory and even the trickle dries up.

Here's the truth almost nobody operationalizes: an integration isn't a feature you ship — it's a channel you operate. Run it right and it's the cheapest, stickiest growth channel you have. Customers who connect your product to their other tools churn dramatically less, and every integration a customer adopts is another root a competitor has to rip out.

Impossible to Say No is the execution manual for Integration-Led Growth (ILG) — written from the chair of the smaller vendor who thinks it's presumptuous to ask a bigger platform to promote them. (It isn't. You just have to do the homework.) Inside:

• Be impossible to integrate with — an API, docs, and an MCP server so partners (and AI agents) can plug in without a meeting.
• The Silver Platter — the full co-marketing enablement kit you hand your partner (positioning, co-branded landers, ads, demos, KB + support, offers, press, email, cinematic + UGC video) — and how to build it with AI in about an hour.
• The Grand-Slam Partner Offer — two offers (their customers and the partner) engineered to be impossible to refuse.
• Pick the right partners with a triage matrix, sell the champion inside the partner, and give first.
• Co-marketing that lasts — launch and evergreen; the mutual Slack "war room"; measuring integration-sourced revenue; and reviving dead integrations that quietly stopped sending traffic.

Part strategy, part field manual, part wake-up call — for founders, PLG operators, and partnership leaders who want the cheapest leads and the stickiest customers they'll ever get.

Stop shipping integrations and hoping. Start running the channel.

The Perpetual Raise:

A Crowdfunding Strategy for Founders, Operators, and Investors Who Care About the Payday

Everyone celebrates the raise. Almost nobody asks the only question that matters.

Did the capital create real enterprise value — or did the round just create a higher number on paper?

The startup world worships the mega-round: raise as much as you can, as early as you can, at the highest valuation, from the biggest names. The Perpetual Raise is the opposite discipline — a capital operating system for founders who want to keep control and actually reward the people who backed them.

The sequence is simple and ruthless: Raise. Deploy. Prove. Report. Reprice. Repeat. Exit. Raise the smallest meaningful amount that funds the next milestone. Deploy it fast into the highest-confidence use. Prove the result. Then — and only then — reopen at better terms.

Justin Smith built Contractor+ on under $750,000 raised from the crowd and zero venture capital. In this book he shows founders, operators, and everyday investors how the new rules of capital actually work:

• The real legal lanes — Reg CF, Reg A, and Reg D 506(c) — explained at a strategy level, without the legalese.

• Raise-to-deploy vs. raise-to-survive: the moral line most founders blur — and how to write a use-of-proceeds you can be graded on.

• The Iceberg of Capital Cost — the platform fee you see, and the interest, dilution, investor-acquisition cost, and control you don't.

• Eleven real crowdfunding case studies — RAD Intel, Legion M, RISE Robotics, Miso, Gumroad, Monogram (crowd → Nasdaq → acquisition), Boxabl, Knightscope, Arrive AI, BackerKit, Solectrac — the wins, the warnings, and the line between a markup and a payday.

• The Investor-Whole Doctrine: customers first, investors second, founders last — and why that order is a point of pride.

• The Milestone Stack and a five-year architecture for building a company an acquirer actually wants.

This isn't hype. It's a field manual — hand-drawn diagrams, honest numbers, and a doctrine you can run this quarter.

Investors don't get paid from screenshots. They get paid from cash. Go earn your next round.
