A 9-step self-help book on financial freedom. You either have an open mind to changing how you view money and your time, or you hate this book after the first couple chapters. The reviews are evenly split.
I think the reason I liked the book was because I'm a minimalist at heart, just trapped in this miserable rat race like so many others because of the mortgage/auto/student loan debt cycle. It validates my stance and encourages me to continue.
This book is very popular and highly recommended by many personal finance bloggers... I read about 1/3 of the book and it feels repetitive, and pushy. I‘m guessing this for people who enjoy “boot camps” and other repetitive and insulting activities. I am not one of those people.
Really helpful book full of great tips and ways to have a better relationship with money.
I can't do it. There's some useful content, but it's mixed in with repetitive writing and more emotion than practicality. Maybe if I were in a different life place I would've loved it, but as it is I'm on a financial plan and don't want to make it more complicated. Decided to put the "life energy" (they convert ? into life energy for your non-budget) into other books.
Continuing my nonfiction reads, "Your Money or Your Life" is next on my stack. It's been mentioned in a couple of personal finance articles in the New York Times and CNBC recently. Has anyone read this and if so what did you think?
When I was younger, this book helped me keep all my money from flying out the door. #💸 #emojinov @RealLifeReading
