The Kick in the Pants I Needed (and you probably do, too)

As I read Larry Winget's book, I thought, "My situation is nothing like these people's." No, it's not; the only difference is I'm able to stay current on the massive amount of debt I have accumulated. I dug my hole the same as the people Larry talks about in the book. And he's right--I must want to live with debt, because I've done nothing about it.

This book was the kick in the pants anyone in debt needs. If you read it honestly, you will face up to your personal responsibility for creating your mess. Then you will discover not only the motivational, inspirational information that will help you determine to change your life, you will also find the practical instructions that can help you accomplish your goals.You're Broke Because You Want to Be: How to Stop Getting By and Start Getting Ahead

Eye Opening

I saw this book two days ago in BJs. While I was waiting for my family to finish shopping I sat down on a patio garden set and read one chapter. The chapter talked about - "You have to first give something in order to receive something" - which puzzled me. From a practical standpoint he explains that you have to first work and then you get money from your job. You have to first give up the fattening food to then lose weight etc.
Another section of the same chapter spoke about the concept of "prosperity, excess and stupidity." He bought a Porsche b/c he could afford it and to show off his prosperity; but since he and his wife had four cars in total he rarely ever drove it and it was just in the way in his garage. That's when he realized the car was an excess. The battery died all the time and the tires became rotten from lack of use. His wife suggested that he sell it; and so he did and purchased a pick-up truck which is a lot more useful for him than the Porsche b/c he could carry more things and take it anywhere. That's when he realized his stupidity in purchasing the Porsche.
Ok, that's all I read; it seems like a great book and I am looking forward to reading it once I finish some other books I need to read as well. Good luck.

A good place to start

Its not what we don't know but what we know but don't do that gets us into trouble. This book is a good starting point to turning your life around. It tells you the truth about making bad choices and offers no nonsense advice. Do everything the book tells you to do and you will get out of debt. His advice may not be flashy or glamorous or even pleasant but it works. Then you can turn to those other books about building wealth when you are debt free.

Great Advice

I bought the book and the audio version as well. The advice is down-to-earth and simple and just good common sense. The author presents the information in an easy to read format and is also great fun to listen to. The information is useful no matter what age you are. Good, simple steps that are applicable to everyone wanting to sort through their financial situation and move forward more positively!

a reality check on handling your money

this book was really amazing. Larry really gets to the heart of the matter. There is no magic cure to money woes, but he shows there is a reality cure. I would recommend this book to anyone no matter their situation or income. I have already started some of the tips and I am seeing an improvement in my daily life.
