Product Description

So you're holding this book in your hand, wondering: Just what does this WWE Superstar know about the world of finance? Have you ever been down to your last twenty-seven dollars, out of a job, and wondering what you were going to do? If anyone needed to learn about finance, it was that person -- and he was me. I've had to learn through my own mistakes, and now you can learn from me. I break it all down for you in easy-to-understand language:

  • Give Yourself a Pay Cut
  • Set Your Goals Before You Start
  • Living Within Your Means
  • You Can't Crash-Diet -- Or Crash-Budget
  • Good Debt vs. Bad Debt
  • How Much Can You Spare?
  • Keep It Simple
  • Buy-and-Hold Doesn't Mean Buy-and-Ignore

I might not work on Wall Street nor have a finance degree, but I've learned how to save, how to invest. And you too can Have More Money Now.

About the Author
A tough Texan who likes to relax with a beer and a cigar, Bradshaw has held three WWE Tag Team Championships and the Hardcore title. He is known among his fellow wrestlers as a man who knows how to hold on to the money he earns and how to make it work for him. He lives in Texas.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not the most elegantly written book, BUT..., August 17, 2003
By A Customer
if I had read this book when I was graduating high school, I'd be in a much better financial position than I am now. This is not a book that you will use to get rich in a month, like most investment books. It WILL show you how to manage debt, develop a sound long term investment strategy, and hopefully retire with a sizable nestegg. My only problem is the author tends to repeat himself ALOT, but it's a small thing among the priceless information presented. I would recommend this book to any fresh out of school teenager or college student. The information presented here SHOULD be a mandatory class for all high school seniors.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Financial Advice, August 3, 2004
By James H. McDuffie (Huntsville, Alabama United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I was a little skeptical at first but I have to say this is one of the best personal finance books I have seen. Period. By combining financial wisdom with stories from his own life Layfield has laid bare his own previous financial woes and his trek to correct the problem. Maybe it just goes to show that experience is the best teacher after all. A combination of financial information, wisdom about living life, and humor, this book will reward the reader. You just can't go wrong. Great financial information can come from the strangest directions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Common Sense and Practicality, A good combo!, April 27, 2004
By J. Gaydoscik "Jim G." (Northeastern Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is practical. The man may be a Pro Wrestler, which you may or may not look down upon (even more so after reading some of the other reviews here!), but he has much Common Sense advice to offer here.
Mr. Layfield's advice is simple: be prepared for the future, but not at the expense of the enjoyment of life in the present. In other words, save for the future, but have some fun now, as you may not be here tomorrow!
This book will NOT make you rich overnight, but it will give you some good ideas for planning out your future. It's also very entertaining if you happen to be interested in wrestling in addition to money management!
I use his ideas about "Pricing Perfection" when I lecture to adult learning about planning for the future. This book has been very valuable to me!
