5.0 out of 5 stars Very valuable advice & very readable - no "fluff" in text, 25 Sep 2000

By	rillman@btinternet.com (Canterbury, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews

I couldn't put the book down & even felt challenged directly, as tho' the author were talking to me in person. I think I am going to be able to make changes in my life because of this book, and make life better - very simple but very effective bits of advice & ideas are all over the text.

4.0 out of 5 stars How to quit the rat race - made easy - ish, 26 Mar 2000

By	chrisdodson@cwcom.net (Cambridge, England) - See all my reviews

Compulsive reading, a definate 'once you pick it up you can't put it downer'. Colin Turner gives common sense advice on how to live the life you want (and deserve). He begins by askng you to work out how much it costs you to go to work and how much you spend on things you don't need. Then follows common sense tips on how to save for a richer future. As ever Colin can come across a bit rose tinted but he writes with conviction. Fed up of the work/debt trap? Read Swimming with Piranha and do something about it. What have you got to lose?

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best self help books I have ever read, 29 Nov 1999

By A Customer

You will not be able to stop yourself going back time and time again to "Swimming with Piranha". It is an extremely enjoyable and easy to read book. Not only does Colin Turner offer words of wisdom, he also gives you the guidelines to follow those words of wisdom, and makes you want to stick to them.
