Personal Finance Author Cara MacMillan Announces Book Proceeds to Benefit Development and Peace

    OTTAWA, ON, July 15, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Cara MacMillan announced today that 10% of the revenue garnered from the sale of her book, It Is Only Money - And It Grows on Trees!, will be donated to Development and Peace, a group of Catholics in Canada who serve as advocates for the poverty-stricken people of the world and actively seek out new and effective ways to bring about social change.

"We have a responsibility to help the world's poor and disadvantaged, either by urging governments, corporations and others to implement change, or by donating time or money to support development efforts," says MacMillan. "I want to show my readers that I am prepared to practice what I preach. I firmly believe that only by working together can we hope to improve our environment and our world."

MacMillan is a thought leader in sustainability and financial management. She has the privilege of teaching and learning with courageous individuals who are committed to making a difference for themselves, their world, and future generations. Her book It Is Only Money and It Grows on Trees! is a narrative that explores how the concept of money differs throughout various world religions and cultures. It also looks at ways in which readers can increase their own wealth through consideration of these practices.

"It Is Only Money is a well-written and imaginative multi-cultural look at acquiring wealth... the author explores the role of money in Hindu, Christian, Jewish, Muslim and other religions, and discusses how the biblical story, The Parable of the Talents, can be used as a way to explore one's own talents and ability to actively make money. MacMillan's thoughts on passive income streams, investments, and finding one's passion as opposed to merely doing a job one hates are well-presented... It Is Only Money is highly recommended." - 5 Stars, Readers' Favorite

"Honestly, this is one of the only books that deals with finance and money that I could not only read cover to cover, but also understood and enjoyed reading...Totally a five-star book!" - Dhwani Swadia, There and Their
