Summary: Here's some money wisdom...
Review: Here's some money wisdom for you, don't waste your money on this book. This is the first thing I've ever read by Suze Orman. She sounds like a fruitcake. All she talks about is religion and other bologna. Her book has nothing to do with money other than flaunting her wealth. I'm not sure why she calls the book Money Wisdom, other than to exploit the public's hunger for financial information. After reading this I would never consider reading anything else she writes. I can't believe PBS let's her on to do free infomercials. Sample of her advice: put ten grant a year in a 401k and with 9% interest you'll have lots of money in 20 years. DA! That's not advice that's a spreadsheet. Advice is telling people where to get the extra ten grand and the guaranteed 9%. I'm just glad I got this book from the library instead of wasting my money. Now that's money wisdom.

Summary: Finance or Psychotherapy?
Review: I was hugely disappointed with this audiobook. I was looking for financial advice and got second rate Psychology. Suze Orman appears to be a frustrated Psychotherapist, since the book focused almost entirely on psychology, emotion, spirtuality and God. Financial issues were an afterthought. She appears to have little or no knowdedge or credentials when it comes to Psychology, but that didn't stop her from grandiose speculations on Religion, Psychology and Philosophy. If you are looking for useful information on finance go elswhere. I found nothing useful that I could take away from this book and I am person who can typically find something of interest in almost anything. Qualifiers: 1) I am speaking only of the audiobook; 2) her other books may quite different and useful; 3) I did not carefully research the book to determine if it would likely contain specific financial advice; 4) her psychotherapy might prove useful to someone (just not me).

Summary: Save your money -- Big Disappointment
Review: There was nothing new in/on this tape that wasn't covered in 9 Steps to Fiancial Freedom and Courage to be Rich. If you really want a tape of Suze Orman's that is useful and worth every penny, I recommend You've Earned It, Don't Lose It. You've Earned It gives solid financial advice where this tape answers no "money" questions. Combine You've Earned It with Eight Steps to Seven Figures and you will be getting some good financial advice. The basic theme of this tape was be pure of heart, pure of mind, and pure in intent and your mind will be clear to concentrate on making money. Ah-huh.

Summary: Well, it worked for me
Review: With all due respect to the review written by Ms. Orman, regardless of the fact that this interview was not originally produced to be sold as an audio tape, it came at exactly the right time in my life. I needed to hear everything on that tape at the moment I picked it up. So even if I am the only person who benefited from the making of the tape, I am very grateful!
