This is a personal finance book you'll actually ENJOY reading!
It doesn't contain any get-rich-quick schemes, nor does it offer any unrealistic promises or guarantees.

What it does do is help you identify your own "money type" (how you use money in general), and then gives simple lessons on how to best improve what needs improving.

Easy? Not exactly. As I said, there are no quick-fixes offered here. The lessons take time and effort. But if you do them, they're sure to work, because they're based on good sense, and an understanding of how women relate to money issues.

Reviewer: Linda Painchaud

Like so many people each January, I recently searched my local bookstore for yet another book to help me start the fiscal year off right. This one caught my eye because it seemed to be directed specifically at my financial issues--and I wasn't disappointed. It's More Than Money is literally the first financial advice book I've read from cover to cover, and I highly recommend it to other women or indeed anyone who struggles with daily and lifelong financial issues. The authors' friendly step by step approach is truly do-able--I've even signed up at their moneyclubs.com website to keep me going! The book has given me the confidence to say that 6 months into 2004 I'll still be sticking to my plans.

Flipped through this book looking for tips on getting out of debt and realized it would help me with all of my money issues. (In fact it made me aware that I had more money issues than I thought I did.) Thanks for a good solid guide that I can understand! These authors should do seminars too.

This is a terrific book to help get your finances off to a good start for the new year. The authors offer sound advice in an easy to understand style with lots of real life examples. The authors don't preach but they do offer sound advice from their own practices and life. And, the notion of joining with other readers with similar issues is great.

This book has a wealth of information from getting out of debt to amassing a personal fortune. It's easy to read format helps the reader access topics of personal interest quickly and effortlessly. Get this book if you need to take control of your finances or if you know someone who would benefit from financial help and support. It makes a great gift for the women in your life from mothers and daughters and sisters too.

Mystified by money? Using a crystal ball to plan your retirement? Burdened with credit card debt? Lacking health insurance? Budgetless? With humor, charts, user-friendly quizzes, and common sense, this book will prod you into taking the small steps needed to get a grip on money. Your money. Earning it, keeping it, growing it. You'll find the scoop on a broad range of financial topics, sprinkled with quotes from the likes of Confucius, Dear Abby, Mark Twain, and Erma Bombeck. Discover ways to put brains and muscle into your personal money management. I found each chapter to be clear, motivating, specific. A great gift.
