    My overall review is that you need to know that I have 0 debts and have 0 debts for years. I learned the hard way buy going into debt, getting out of debt and learning to live a simple lifestyle with 0 debts. If I do not have cash to buy something I do not buy it is my only rule.
    Now, if you are in debt and need helpful information to really save you money, and then this is a great book with simple helpful tips and tricks to get you to save even if you “think” you already know how. I am a huge fan of Dave Ramsey and this book will talk about what Dave Ramsey tells as well.
    This is an information book that anyone can take at least one tip and save money and that is what we all want, to save money. I highly recommend this book to anyone who needs to get out of debt, stay out of debt and help others do the same.

    Bob, you were right! You do get to the point with your book. I appreciate that! There were several ideas that I have already tried and have discovered that they really do save money. However, there also were several tips that were brand new to me. I like #19 about tools, and I totally agree! If you can discover even one idea to save money, it makes this book timely and worth it! Thanks again for providing this resource!

    I found this book to be very easy to understand. The money saving ways were practical and doable. Several of the ideas I had already done and a couple of others I am in the process of trying and still others that did not apply to me. I became debt-free a few years ago and it felt great! But I’m always looking for ways to save. The debt snowball method is the main one I used in getting out of a $17,000 debt that was mostly due to an unexpected medical crisis my husband experienced. It takes discipline to save money and get out of debt. The one idea that I would have liked to see more detail was the one about cancelling cable. Being that I’m not very tech savvy I would like more understanding of how these other tv options work. But, other than that, this was a good, short-enough book to read for some simple ideas. Also, I follow this author by receiving daily emails that are usually short and informative.
