The Four Commandments of Financial Certainty
Rigging The Game shows you how to create and follow a path to the things you truly value while systematically eliminating the risks and financial uncertainty that commonly plague business owners every day.
Ended
No matter the industry or size of the business, entrepreneurs and small business owners everywhere face the same issue: financial uncertainty. This feeling of uncertainty comes from a mix of anxiety and powerlessness, and it’s compounded by a tendency to make decisions based on anything other than getting closer to the things we actually value.
This book will lay out the 3 reasons why some people seem to win all the time while others don’t, the 4 Commandments for achieving financial certainty, the algorithms necessary to make your new operating system work, and the steps to identifying our priorities and fully funding them on our ideal timeline. This methodology includes:
How to identify personal biases and evolve past limiting binary thinking
Actionable steps for turning goals into accessible checkpoints and allocating assets accordingly
Useful decision-making frameworks
Engineering your cash flow and aligning your bank account with your priorities
Dan Nicholson graduated Summa Cum Laude from Seattle University with emphases in both Accounting and E-Commerce Information Systems. Upon graduation, Dan was selected out of a pool of nominees from the nation’s top 50 accounting programs for an exclusive fellowship with the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), where he helped write a national accounting standard. Since then, Dan has worked in finance and accounting roles at Clark Nuber, UPS, WaMu, as well as Deloitte and Touche’s Audit and Enterprise Risk Services practices where he was primarily responsible for auditing both the financial statements and IT internal controls around the Treasury cycle at Microsoft. Dan has been named a top 40 accountant under 40 (globally) four times over.
This book is for entrepreneurs and small to mid-size business owners who struggle with uncertainty around their cash flow, and who want to minimize the risks inherent in running a business.
“Over the last few decades, I have helped gold-medal athletes, world champions, and Fortune 500 CEOs get clarity on their goals, create certainty around achievement of the outcome, and collapse the timeframe to get there as fast as possible. In Rigging the Game, Dan Nicholson has masterfully broken down how to get clarity around your personal definition of wealth, certainty that you achieve it, and collapse the time so it happens faster than you ever thought possible.”
- Dr. Jeff Spencer
“As a business professor, executive coach and philanthropist I have read over 2k books. Most are touted as the next big thing that is going "revolutionize the field of (fill in the blank)." Every so often one comes along that truly changes the landscape. "Rigging the Game" is the real deal." It contains theories that are on par with anything from the top business schools, yet it goes much further with providing actual steps you can take to ensure success in your business and your life.
Like any skillful surgeon uses a scalpel; Dan Nicholson uses his The Four Commandments of Wealth Building with precision and effectiveness that can restore your financial health.
The fix is in, and Rigging the Game is a real winner!”
- Randy Massengale.
"Dan Nicholson has created the single most powerful operating system to help business owners get what they want out of life. I use it and teach it to all of my clients"
- Nic Peterson
Dan cut his teeth in Fortune 500 companies and some of the most prestigious financial institutions in the country (like Clark Nuber, UPS, Deloitte, WaMu and a fellowship with the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, where he helped write a national accounting standard), and was recognized as a top 40 accountant under 40 globally.
After gathering all this experience, Dan leaned into his entrepreneurial ambitions and founded multiple small businesses, including Nth Degree CPAs. a Seattle-based accounting firm that was named among the top 10 national accounting firms. Since then, he has used his insights from over 3,000 conversations with entrepreneurs and business owners to develop methods for increasing certainty, minimizing risk, and engineering cash flow.

SOOP is a small virtual publishing company headquartered in Madison, Wisconsin, with a core team based in the US and additional contractors around the world.

Dear Author,
You worked hard to write your manuscript; finally, it's ready to release. You know that expert assistance is needed, but perhaps you didn’t realize that working with a publisher is no longer necessary—especially publishers who charge fees to produce your book upfront and "share" more of your revenue whenever a book is sold.
1106 Design is an author services company. We offer all the editorial and design services you’d expect from a publisher, transforming your manuscript into a market-ready book. But here's the difference: we help you secure print-on-demand printing and worldwide distribution in your name. This means you earn several dollars more for every book sold instead of a meager “royalty.”
We understand that your book is not just a passion project but also a potential source of income. That's why we offer a range of services tailored to your needs at affordable prices. Depending on your manuscript's word count and complexity, our packages range from $4,000 to $10,000. And here's the best part: after this one-time investment, every penny of net revenue from book sales goes directly to you, never to us.
If this sounds like a better way to publish your book, I invite you to browse our services, design samples, no-surprises pricing, outstanding customer reviews, and educational articles at https://1106design.com. You can download a free PDF of my book, "Publish Like the Pros: A Brief Guide to Quality Self-Publishing and an Insider's Look at a Misunderstood Industry," and request a free, no-obligation consultation.
1106 Design has been in business since 2001 and is rated A+ by the Better Business Bureau. We are a “Highly Recommended Expert” at IngramSpark.com and rated "Excellent" at Alli, The Alliance for Independent Authors, at SelfPublishingAdvice.org, where you can find a "watchdog list" of the best and worst publishing services companies.
How can we serve you today?
Sincerely,
Michele DeFilippo, owner
