Customer Reviews

Unlike any other Money book

This is an amazing book. No other book has made a deep and lasting difference on my finances because they all missed something. This book teaches both principles and practical steps, and uses real-world examples (from people they have worked with) to drive the points home. I understand more, and as a result, I'm actually living better. My money can no longer kick me around. The authors have told me how (and why) to control my money, and it's fun! No budgeting, because budgets are negative and don't work in the real world. Instead, they have shown me how to spend my money well. Their preferred spending method has a nice side-effect of also tax-proofing me along the way. It's very rewarding. The further I get in the book, the more exciting it gets. Their taxinformation is ethical, easy, audit-proof, and will save me a ton of money (and effort) on my taxes. The authors are passionate about helping people control their money instead of being slaves to it. As I have read and used their methods, money has become a tool instead of a slave master. I haven't "arrived" yet, but my power to control money growing, and it's a good feeling.

Powerful Stuff!! Dare You To Implement It And Stick To IT!

This book is great. I will read it over and over for the rest of my life. Its entertaining and yet dense enough to be used as reference material well after you finish it. Amazingly organized. The subject matter progresses just as it should and the real life examples really bring the lessons to life. Empower yourself and think about your future and that of your children. Plan and never be in want. Not a strain to implement. Good for any situation. Go!!! That you folks at Money Mastery!!! I am now aware.

Best Kept Financial Secret In America.

WOW: As a working mom, I like to read finsncial books to help my family. This is clearly the best financial and tax planning book that I have ever read, as the other reviewers have also noted. It is clear, concise, simply written, and chuck full of financial and tax planning strategies. There is an especially good tax section by an IRS attorney that was immensely helpful for my small business and for people who are thinking of starting a small business. For example, I didn't know that I could deduct all my dry cleaning and laundry expenses after a business trip. The discussion on deducting my entertainment and golf was particularly interesting.I have read many financial books including the Rich Dad/ Poor Dad series and "The Millionaire Next Door" by Stanley, and this book blows them all out of the water.Trust me: This book is one of the better kept financial secrets. Its too bad these authors don't promote it more because it is fabulous. If there is any one financial book that you should read and give to your children, this one is it!

Outstanding advice

I have to agree that this is an outstanding book that outlines the principles needed to master your financial life. Definitely 5 stars. This book is especially relevant to those starting in business. Get the book.
