This book really makes you re-examine what it means to have money. It will make you change the way you look at earning money and the way you look at spending money.
This book could really change your life-- as long as you have the ability to be extremely organized and detail oriented. (Which, sadly, most of the time I don't). Like its spiritual cousins, "What Color is Your Parachute" and "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People", "Your Money or Your Life" is full of great advice that is almost impossible to execute. "You don't have to understand it," say the authors, "Just do it." I guess you can consider me Ye of Little Faith. Sorry, but I like to understand how things work before I pour huge amounts of my time into them.
That said, you can learn some important things from this book, even if you don't do the 9-step plan. For example, I learned that "rewarding myself" for doing a job I hate should be factored into my wages for the job, as well as money spent on "decompressing" or "escaping" from the reality of the job. That was actually a huge breakthrough for me. So while I still think the 9-step plan is kind of odd, I would still recommend this book because it offers a fresh perspective on money that is sorely needed.
Enjoyed this book thoroughly!
