5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent treatise on the subject of preparedness.,
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Prosper During the Hard Times Ahead: A Crash Course for the American Family in the Troubled New Millennium (Hardcover)
Having met the author personally several times, I know that he truly does walk the talk. This book deals not only with y2k preparation, but, generally in getting your life financially and generally prepared for any catastrophe. If this book falls short in any area it would be that it focuses on those who are already financially set. It would seem absurd for anyone living from pay check to pay check to aquire some of the basics the author recommends. Also, Howard paints a picture of gloom and doom, which may put some readers off a little. However, as he writes in his book, "hope for the best possible scenario, but prepare for the worst." Personally, I would love to see Howard Ruff, or someone with his inegrity to run for president. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, cover to cover.

The Same 'Ol from the Same 'Ol,
By FrugalBugle (Nashville) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How to Prosper During the Hard Times Ahead: A Crash Course for the American Family in the Troubled New Millennium (Hardcover)
Ruff's been preparing for economic catastrophe for 30 years. Now he's added moralistic sermons to the cataclysmic mix. In the 1970s, Ruff told us to buy gold and fill our basements with silver and food, then nothing happened. In 1999, he told us to buy gold and fill our basements with silver and food for Y2K, then nothing happened. You think the gullible public will ever learn? Is this guy in the food or gold business? Or does he sell generators? Ruff blames America's problems on welfare and the breakdown of the family even though welfare rolls are reducing rapidly, he demonizes Clinton even though the economy is the best in 35 years, and he tells us sex outside marriage is breaking down America and causing (guess what?) more welfare and the breakdown of America, Social Security insolvency, and a pile of liars. Ruff has 13 children and 48 grandchildren so more power to him for his solid religious and family life, but it ain't exactly a model of restraint! He wants the government to be there with Social Security, but blames the government for regulations. His 70's book was poignant and thought-provoking; this one, for me at least, couldn't cut mustard.
