1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. So much wrong with this bookBy morganchick1990I will give this book that there are a few good ideas. But this is not the book for you if you are serious about becoming debt free. It doesnt tell you how to save on essential; it talks about getting luxury items at a lower price. Some of the info in it is just wrong. Its poorly researched; disrespectful to many industries (the section on the farmers market it just plain offensive); and on the whole not very helpful.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. So soBy Brittany83it has some good points and tips; but at the end of the day its not exactly showing you how to truly live within a budget. its basically saying "go out and buy these key items that are costly and youre good". Well; that doesnt exactly solve the budget issue now does it?3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. horribly writtenBy Brandee ZukowskiCouldnt even get through this book. It was so awful; not at all helpful. Mostly it was common sense.
