When I received an invitation to participate in this blog tour, I thought "sure, why not". My husband and I are anti-debt and rarely carry a balance on a credit card. I thought it might be a nice refresher on things that we had already incorporated into our routine. Of course, we too have struggled financially, even without credit card debt. Our struggle is to stay out of debt and the reason I went to work after being a stay at home mom for 16 years. I now work 4 hours a day, just for a little extra income and to take care of life's emergencies. (Of course, it is for the school district my kids are part of, that way I am home when they are home.)
I was impressed with the thought and knowledge that went into the making of this book and the financial expertise that Brett and Ethan gave to Tristi. The book is written as if we are sneaking a peak, or listening in, on a financial planning meeting. Brett and Ethan are giving Tristi advice and she is asking questions. You can see the whole process playing along as if you were watching it on a screen.
My husband is thrilled that I read this book. I am the one who balks at the idea of putting more money into savings, because I am stressed about not having it to spend if we need it now. From this book I gained some wisdom at putting more money away for the future. When I went outside to talk to him while he was doing some yard work, and let him know that I was all for having more money put into savings, he was very excited. If nothing else this book gave me a better perspective on being a little more financially savvy. My husband kept on asking me questions about my progress in the book and wanted to know what I was learning. I have placed it on his nightstand so he can read it at his leisure.
Tristi has a great website where you can see her progress from her new financial knowledge. You can visit http://www.milliondollardiva.com and get a copy of the book for free, you just need to pay the $5.95 shipping and handling.
I usually write my reviews on Goodreads immediately when I finish the book. Here is what my first impressions were when I finished.
This book has many practical applications that are realistic and easily explained. There were many times when I found myself nodding and thinking how "I could do that." Not only does this book give great advice for finances, but I was able to relate the information to other areas in my life where I need improvement. The book talks about balance. How your finances are in the center, and the other areas of your life circle around your finances. I am continually striving to create balance in my life and the times where I am the most out of control are when I am struggling financially. My husband is grateful that I read this book. I had a few chats with him about what I/we could do better and make our financial future a little brighter. Thanks Tristi, Brett, and Ethan for giving me something to think about and strive for. |
