Summary: I would recommend it........
Review: I checked this book out of the library about two days ago... I finished and dropped it off yesterday. I would recommend this to anyone who feels at a lost when it comes to saving money......
I am going to caution that if your credit card debt is already in collection some of his principles will be hard to follow to the letter... Bascailly he want the reader to go on a credit diet... use only 90%of the income pay instead of the full 100%....Personally I am in deep debt....however I have begun my journey to freedom by writing down all of my accounts,listing them in a large book which is divide into two. The first half is for account that will be paid off.... the second is for monthly payments such as rent,insurance and utilies..... I am reading several other books and taking notes.... once I begin to build my wealth account I will transfer some of the funds to a low risk investment...

Summary: Great Help for those of us that need it!!!!
Review: Some might think this book a little touchy feely, but I think that it is the perfect blend of process and support. Working through it not only makes scense, but it tells the eader what the true meaning of wealth is.

After reading this book, I went out and began working the program. I am only two months into it and already I feel like I'm taking charge. And, I get to watch my money grow while still taking care of business. This process works!

Now, say I'm feeling like falling back into my old spending patterns and think about giving in, I can pick up this book and read the "self help" side and then I become empowered again.

I am not usually interested in financial matters (thus my problem), but once I read this book, I really started paying attention to how money works.

Summary: I can finally get out of debt!
Review: This is the year I do it. Finally a book that understands what people have to go through to pay bills. I'll be able to pay off my debts AND put more money in the bank this year than I have in the last few years. Even when I was earning more money.

John Fuhrman makes it simple to understand why budgets don't work and how changing the way you think about money is the most important first step.

I've read all the finance experts and while they have great information, there is no way to take advantage of it until I get out from under all this debt. Then I can use their information to secure my future.

If this is the year you want to eliminate debt from your life and start really building a financial future, this is the one book to own.
