Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This book is unhelpful at best and downright insulting at worst. Some of the tips: Stop eating out. Rent your boats and Atvs instead of buying them. Make a budget. Track your spending. Teach your kids to manage money. Plan finances with your spouse. Shop at thrift stores. Really? If I'm trying to save money I think I'd already be doing these things. This is common sense. I'm not sure who the audience of this book is...it's telling me to skip the valet service. Because that will save me money. It also mentions frequently that I should not give in to the urge to buy that top that goes with those shoes, or that handbag, or that other top from the catalogue. Are women the only ones that read money saving books? It also claims that you can plan healthy eating by buying frozen dinners instead of eating out. Frozen dinners aren't good for you. These are terrible ideas. If you're looking for common sense ideas you probably already know or of you are well off and don't realize that you can rent boats or park your car yourself then read this book. It can help you save money, I guess. Otherwise I would suggest How to Manage Your Money When You Don't Have Any. That book will teach you how to MANAGE your money so you can then properly save it.
