5.0 out of 5 stars Wish I'd read it years ago! 6 April 2010

By Tinker Bell

Format:Paperback

I loved this book. It is well written and easy to read. Obviously aimed at the female reader but I'm sure there are a few men who could use some tips from this too. I have already put many of the suggestions into practice, and it has really opened my eyes to the merits of paying off the mortgage and living as debt-free as possible. I only wish I could have read this book years ago as I might have been rich by now! A brilliant gift for a student, and should be given to every young female with their first pay cheque! The accompanying website is also worth a look. Money very well-spent as it will save me a fortune in the long-run. I feel my finances are already more organised than ever before, and they can only get better now that I know not to bury my head in the sand over debt and monthly budgeting.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book has changed my life 29 Mar 2011

By alexi

Format:Paperback

I wish this book was around when I was 17 and starting to take control of my finances ( although control is probably the wrong word). I might have resisted overspending at university and ending up in huge debt which then set me on my back foot at the start of my working life. Reading this book was like a revelation, I could hear my own experiences in the voices of many of the women. I think that the authors have an amazing grasp on how women see money and spending, and somehow understanding that there is a reason that I behaved in a certain way made it much easier to change what I was doing. I now get a buzz from saving rather than spending, and I read the money sections in papers which I used to put to the bottom of the pile as they seemed as if they were written in a foreign language. I feel empowered and excited about my relationship with money, and the best thing is that I will get to pass on this knowledge to my 2 daughters when the time comes. I'm going to buy them both a copy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good practical advice 9 Dec 2009

By Melissa Lee

Format:Paperback

I bought this book a couple of months ago now when I was having a bit of a spending spree on books! I've always been fairly in control of my finances but this book offered some good pratical advice and is written in a very informative yet humourous and non-patronising way. It motivated me to search online for an ISA (which I've since opened), a new bank account, and other savings options, I've also reviewed my credit card to see if there's a better option out there. In many ways it's quite an empowering feeling you get after reading this, and I've also since set up a pension through work. I'm now considering passing it on to some friends who I think need some helpful tips.
