Last week I reviewed, You’re Broke Because You Want to Be by Larry Winget. I enjoyed the book, and I like Larry’s style. Since I like free stuff, here’s some great places you can visit to find out more about Larry:
LarryWinget.com - Larry’s main site. There is a link to Free Stuff where you can get some audio downloads.
Larry’s Blog - tidbits from Larry. I especially like his rant on saying “thank you”.
Big Spender - Larry’s show on A&E. On the site, there are some video clips you can watch for free.
Larry Winget Quotes - a large collection of Larry quotes, some are thought-provoking.
10 Questions for Larry Winget - an interview with Larry at AllFinancialMatters.
Big Spender Recaps - Beachgirl does an amazing job of recapping the Big Spender episodes.
Lastly, I am giving away the autographed copy of You’re Broke Because You Want to Be that I received to review.

I had never heard of Larry Wingate until a few bloggers began to review his book. I have looked at his website and A&E to read about him. I think he is my kind of guy.
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 8:14 am
I’m always up for a good read. Thanks for offering this to someone!
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 8:18 am
I loved the show Big Spender, I was so disappointed when it wasn’t on this past Saturday
It would be very interesting to read his book!
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 8:21 am
Hi.
I was only recently turned on to Larry a few months ago, when I caught an episode on A&E - geez, where have I been?? Since that time, I’ve been trying to find out more info on him. Thanks for the links and the information!
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 9:12 am

Did know about him before you. Interesting what his says versus what we would like to say and don’t. I would like to read his book.
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 11:08 am
I’d love to read this book. I wish A&E would air his show more often - it hits home too much, even though the only debt we have is a mortgage.
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 11:23 am
I would love to read the book! Please pick me!
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 12:29 pm
I’m in. And keeping my fingers crossed.
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 12:45 pm
Larry ROCKS!
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 1:03 pm
Sounds like a great book. I wonder if people who are quite blunt are having success because we as a culture are sick of being patronized?
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 1:13 pm
Thank you for offering the book on your site!
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 1:27 pm
I borrowed Larry Winget’s book from my library, read it in a day, and now want my wife to read it. I’d love to have a copy to highlight and make notes in.
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 1:35 pm

A&E? I don’t spend money on cable!
I’d love to win the book and learn about this Larry fellow. Oh, and not be broke anymore!
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 3:33 pm
I would benefit soooo much from this book!!
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 3:59 pm

I love this guy…
Thanks for having the contest!

My husband loves “Big Spender” (okay, so I do too). Since we’re almost in the pit of paying 2 mortgages, we could definitely stand to have that book…
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 7:21 pm
In for a chance . . . Thanks
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 8:28 pm
Not only is he smart.. but he’s hot! Except those crazy boots. But hey… if he can recover from bankruptcy - several times - I’ll gladly read his words of wisdom. Thanks for the offer!
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 8:36 pm
I’d love to get this book. Maybe my husband would read it.
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 8:52 pm
I always miss Big Spender and the station never replays at another time. I guess I’ll have to start getting up earlier
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 9:15 pm
me. me. me. I’d love to get the book.
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 9:59 pm
I would really love this book. A&E hasn’t shown any Big Spender shows the past few weeks here so I need a Larry fix, really badly.
Thanks in advance!
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 10:29 pm
finally a realist!
Posted: January 15th, 2008 at 10:35 pm

I’m tired of being broke and I will work on being wealthy
Posted: January 16th, 2008 at 10:47 am
I just wish A&E showed Big Spender more often. Since that isn’t happening I’d love to read his book!
Posted: January 16th, 2008 at 10:52 am
Wow, I really liked that “Thank You Rant!” Seems like this would be a good book to read!

I’d love to get that copy of Larry’s book. Is his show still running? Just ran into it one day and love it!
Posted: January 16th, 2008 at 3:35 pm
I would love to read the book. Love YOUR site BTW!!
Posted: January 16th, 2008 at 9:20 pm
I’d love to be entered for this book. I’ve been enjoying the Big Spender show for a year or so but have never read any of his books. I also saw him on a Millionaire Inside episode and he was great!
Thanks!
Posted: January 16th, 2008 at 10:37 pm
I read one of Larry’s other books, Shut Up, Stop Whining, and Get a Life, and it would be great to read this as well.
Thanks for running a great blog!
Posted: January 16th, 2008 at 11:47 pm
