Humorous Financial Thriller Makes Sobering Observations on the Status of American Finance

The Estate of my Uncle Sam, a new book by Phillip Meyers, uses fiction to comment on the very real finances of federal, state and local governments

Paradise Valley, Arizona (PRWEB) May 13, 2007 -- The Estate of My Uncle Sam is a wake up call for a nation whose identity has become associated with trillions of dollars in debt. Emerging from retirement after a diverse career in accounting and finance, author Phillip Meyers delivers a wake-up call in his fictional political commentary on the status of the United States as a "debtor nation."

Hoping to prevent nationwide financial collapse, Meyers taps into his extensive experience in private capital formation and business development, as well as governmental regulation and budgetary issues, to create a fictional scenario in which he illustrates how easily American financial markets can crumble. The Estate of My Uncle Sam offers practical insight into governmental expenditures, budgeting, and accounting, using the forum of intrigue, secret societies, and the number one cure-all, humor.

The Estate of My Uncle Sam illustrates how careless not only the federal government has become with expenditures, but how this has trickled down to state, local, and even individual levels, invading financial theory and practice like a disease.
