highly recommended

Excellent book on how to be a good steward of your resources.

This book provides rational steps on how to wisely use your resources. It also may help those who are considering early retirement. Conserving resources helps preserve our Planet, but if everyone practices the philosophy of this book (an unlikely event) the economy could suffer. This is a book everyone should be familiar with, and it was fun to read.

You'll never see money the same way again!

This book was instrumental in my re-imagining of what money is and what it means to my life. As a result of reading this book, I now have a very healthy money-outlook, and can easily make choices that would have been quite difficult before. I recommend this book to everyone, whether you have money or not!

A must

Brings sanity to money decisions. I loaned it out to a friend, her mom grabbed it, and I am going to need more copies, one to give my son and one for me. I am already implementing the principles, what a relief from all the things I think I "should" be doing with my money. You will see me debt free and living on my new 14 acre plot in 5 years or less.

Too much hype

This is a good book and I think it will be worthwhile to follow the steps that the author set out (I plan to do this), but some of his suggestions are just over-the-top (e.g. bargaining for everything, including your groceries or clothes, calling every store in your town to find the lowest price on whatever item you want to buy). To his credit, I don't think he expects everyone to follow every one of these tips, but just puts them out there as ways to save money. The basic lesson of this book is nothing earth shattering: stop spending and start saving. I really appreciated the context that he put this lesson into though: spending money equals spending life energy. When explained in that manner, one might hesitate to spend several hours of one's life on a trendy item of clothing that will only get worn twice! My one major complaint about this book is that it's hard to read all the way through and I got tired of hearing the author repeat over and over how the book would change your life. I suggest reading it in chunks as you put the plan into action, and gloss over the boring bits in favor of the actual lessons and the real-life examples.
