The Can Openers Challenge
Dear Colleagues & Friends,
I need your help.
I wrote a book called Can Openers. It is available for sale on Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, and it will soon be available as a Kindle edition.
I am donating my proceeds to charity. I will be 100% transparent. I must pay taxes on the royalties, and then the rest goes to charity. I receive $5.48 in royalties on the purchase of every book. I will need to pay about $1.64 of that in taxes. The rest ($3.84) goes to charity. I will post the royalty and donation statements on my blog page (halwardblog.com).
Why am I doing this? Because I want you to read my book. I worked for two years on it. I can’t give it away (it costs almost $10 just to publish) - but I will do anything I can for you to read it. So, I’m donating my proceeds to charity.
This is where I need your help- I need you to purchase the book, and share the good news with your friends and colleagues.
When you buy the book, you’ll learn all about how I married my best friend (The Vows We Took, page 58), my wonderful daughters (The Single Worst Financial Move I Ever Made, page 92), the greatest dog in the world (Darwin, page 26), and that I’m not smart enough to use electric appliances (Can Openers, page 87).
The book is available at

Take the Can Openers Challenge. Buy the book, take it to the beach or the bathroom, share the good news with your friends, and tell Oprah about it.
Thank You,
