NOBODY IS COMING. IT'S TIME TO SAVE YOURSELF.

You have been lied to.

You were raised on the "Fairness Fallacy"—the idea that if you are a good person, good things will happen to you. You were told that "it takes a village" to raise a family and build a life.

Here is the cold truth: The village is gone.

The world is indifferent to your struggle. It does not care about your bad luck, your exhaustion, or your "potential". Your "friends" are likely just customers who pay you in attention until you stop being useful. If you are waiting for a savior, a government check, or a stroke of luck to fix your problems, you are going to die waiting.

The Army of One is not a book about loneliness. It is a manual for solitude and strength. It is a tactical guide for the man or woman who has realized that the only person coming to the rescue is the one staring back in the mirror.

Written by Dean Elkins—a professional handyman, former funeral director, and self-made builder—this book strips away the fluff of modern self-help and hands you a crowbar. It teaches you how to stop outsourcing your safety, your happiness, and your future to a system that is designed to keep you helpless.

Inside, you will learn:

The Transactional Trap: How to audit your social circle, spot the "Energy Vampires," and purge the people who only call when they need a favor.
The Myth of the Village: Why the "herd" is dangerous and how to replace it with a Stronghold—a fortified unit consisting only of you, your spouse, and your children.
The Arsenal of One: Why "I don't know how" is no longer a valid excuse. Learn how to become a Generalist who can fix a running toilet, secure a Wi-Fi network, and survive a crisis without calling a professional.
Financial Armor: How to achieve "The Position of F*** You"—the financial state where you can walk away from any toxic boss or situation because you have a "Moat" of cash and zero debt.
Emotional Kevlar: How to use the "Gray Rock" method to starve narcissists of attention and turn insults into useless data.

You cannot build a fortress if you leave the gate open. You cannot win the war if you are waiting for permission to fight.

Burn the map to the village. Start building your Stronghold.

Welcome to the Army of One.
