Tekst achterflap

Fourteen hours a day. Five shops. Twenty-five employees, paid to the last cent, every single month. And Michel Caes paid himself last. Always last. Until there was nothing left to pay himself with. Not once, in thirty years. He told himself it was generosity. It wasn't. It was fear — the fear that earning money meant taking it from someone else. A belief nobody ever spoke out loud, installed long before he could question it, in a house where "money's tight at the end of the month" was simply how things were. The Dutch have a saying for it: doe maar gewoon, dan doe je al gek genoeg. Just act normal — that's crazy enough already. Don't stand out. Don't be more than the people beside you. Michel followed that rule for fifty years. It cost him a business. A marriage. Years with his children he can't get back. This book is what he wishes someone had told him at twenty: money is not evil. Having it doesn't make you someone else. It just gives you more of what you already are. The Invisible Ceiling isn't another book about getting rich. It's the map of everything quietly standing in your way. It's time to lift it.
