I haven't seen Big Spender yet, although I've been planning on checking the tv listings to see when it comes one. I’ve heard some awesome things about this guy.

I went to his website a couple of days ago and read his blog. He is just as harsh and helpful in his blog answering emails as he is on his show. http://thenewlifeilead.blogspot.com/2008/01/extra-hours-ahead-of-me.html He is awesome and I am so glad that he is doing his best to help others. Thanks for the review of his book. Can I get in line to read your copy? (hint, hint) XOXO AKB I just blogged about Larry Winget the other day.

I enjoy the series on A&E. I appreciate the fact that he isn't afraid to call people out on what the are doing wrong. Kind of like a Dr Phil for the PF crowd ;) I will have to check this out.

The no-nonsense attitude and tell it like it is method is something I like. People like Donald Trump and Gordon Ramsey are known for being very direct with their opinions. I need my wife to read the books too for us to get anywhere. I might have to check out this book. The no-nonsense attitude and tell it like it is method is something I like.

I was hoping you'd review the book since you're doing an amazing job of getting out of debt and if you had something negative to say about the book and the message then that would impact my decision to read it.

Being debt free is a great start, your miles ahead of most people. My only investing advice is to keep it simple and consistent and regular. Time is your friend, debt is your enemy. Besides that a few blogs (besides this one)you may want to check out are www.simpledollar.com and www.wisebread.com both are excellent starting points. good luck Kuwaiti Woman are you an American working in Kuwaiti?

I enjoyed reading your review of the book but I was wondering if you would recommend it for a person like me. I'm always broke and don't have a background in personal finance, but I'm trying to change that around in 2008. Thankfully I am starting out debt-free but haven't got the first clue about investing. Does it have any useful tips for a newbie? I found your blog through blog hopping. I enjoyed reading your review of the book but I was wondering if you would recommend it for a person like me.
