Learning from the "experts",
By Armchair Interviews (Minneapolis, MN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Frugal Millionaires - 70 millionaires anonymously share their ideas about money to help each other and you. (Retail: $21.95) (Paperback)
Imagine yourself in a room with seventy people from all walks of life, each of whom is immensely successful at managing their money. Then imagine that you had the time and audacity to walk up to each of them, confidently introduce yourself, and ask how they became rich. That's Jeff Lehman's book, The Frugal Millionaires, in a nutshell. The advice contained within the text is well worth the price of the book, especially if you're considering paying a financial adviser to tell you what you should be doing to improve your financial acumen.
Lehman surveyed seventy millionaires to find out their ideas about the ins and outs of money, including stocks and bonds, real estate, credit cards, and of course, taxes. He also garnered their opinions on other topics such as mortgages, clothing, travel, paying for education and retirement planning. Strangely enough, he also asked about marriage, which is an interesting aside. The responses run the gamut from well trodden to genuinely interesting and informative. Also scattered among the pages are Lehman's own short essays on just about everything remotely related to money management. He covers the common topics of real estate marketing, car selling and buying, and his views on smart retirement planning, often injecting humor into the mix, making these diversions entertaining. He also adds odd topics, like his favorite spending advice from horoscopes. The reader is getting the full scoop here. Within the 191 pages of the paperback version are more than three thousand years of financial advice, assuming the average age of the millionaire interviewed was fifty. The result is a book that contains more apropos information than found in a year's worth of "Wall Street Journals." Armchair Interviews says: If you're feeling like it is time to brush up on money management, then this book is for you.

Common "cents" not so common!,

This review is from: The Frugal Millionaires - 70 millionaires anonymously share their ideas about money to help each other and you. (Retail: $21.95) (Paperback)
I found The "Frugal Millionaires" to be an insightful book with complex ideas made simple and easy to understand. Though I do a pretty good job monitoring my finances, the book made me re-evaluate my spending habits and helped me stay focused on my retirement investment goals. Of the top fifteen best practices illustrated in the book, "nickel and dime you to death daily spending" hit home the most. Now in an effort to save more money for investing, I ask myself if I really need that Starbuck's and try to eat at home more often. If more Americans were smarter with their money, the country probably wouldn't be in the financial crisis that it is in today. I'm recommending this book to my family and friends!

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Frugal Millionaires: 70 Millionaires Anonymously Share Their Ideas About Money to Help Each Other and You (Kindle Edition)
If you guys have read the millionaire next door, it is basically a summary of the book, but leaving out all the details. It is newer, so it has more current "things" that it referrs to. The Kindle version is very hard to follow, you see the responses from each millionaire but they run together, and are very hard to follow. I enjoy reading this material, so I did enjoy the book - but I wish someone would have written a more honest, and unbiased review before I bought it.
